Duff's Diary

This is me, the name's Duff. Yeah, I might I look all "Dark and creep," and my name might mean "Dark," But I'm really not... Usually. There IS a good reason why I'm dressed like that though.
Well, it's pretty complicated. Hmm, where to start? I guess the beginning is a good place! :lol:

When I was a child, I was outside playing with whom were my friends, Dillon and Alicia. We were playing tag when I tripped and bashed right into a tree! My eyes got infected and I had to go into eye surgery (Woohoo, surgery where they cant make you sleep and you cant blink! What a blast it was!).
Slowly my eyesight faded from surgery to surgery, until I couldn't see at all.

I wear all black clothes because its easier not to make an outfit look absolutely horrible, black is black, and it goes with black. Plus I used to like it.

You may ask, "How in the world can she be writing if she's blind?!" That's also sort of complex.

When I was first "Disable-alized," my dad was soooo convinced that I should go to a School for the Blind. But seriously? I can't leave the school I was at, it would totally start a commotion, and people will all be like, "Oh my gosh, she's blind? Let's totally avoid her!" Even though they have no reason to, I'm just different, unique, special. All of that cheap stuff :p

I begged and pleaded with dad to let me stay in public school, and that I could quickly get along and learn to live with the common folk, secretly being very different.

My dad eventually said
Duff, I'll tell you what. If you can get along for two weeks in your current school, I'll let you stay there until you have problems with it.
YES! 'Twas a miracle!
Of course, I had plenty of time to recover before I had to go back to school. Two or three months, minimum! So I practiced learning to walk without my eyes, a stick, or a dog. Very quickly I picked up on how to click my tongue or something and listen to the sound waves. Like a bat :p I can't believe I did it so easily!
After the few months, I didn't tell a soul my secret.
I also learned to feel my page as I write to tell what I've written/people have written. THAT's how I can write!


A little bit more about me, real quick!

I'm far from emo. I'm not saying that emo is bad, it's just not what I am. It's like if someone said to you, "Are you a dog lover?" And you said "Nope, I'm a cat fan!" You wouldn't be insulting dog lovers, you're just not one. Besides, who sets these trends anywho? WHY MUST BLACK BE A NEGATIVE COLOR?!
I really really like dubstep.

You do NOT want to see me dance. It's a mess.

I'm an only child

I live with my dad.

I have a crush on this one boy at school.... I used to... But I adore his personality!

I asked dad for some pictures of him from the school website.
Image

My dad's first reaction:
Why is he holding a cannoli?

My reaction:
Because he's awesome that way!
:lol:

Oh, yes. I cannot forget a picture of my dad.

It took awhile for him to find one, but here we are!

Image

He's nice, but likes to tease me a lot, most likely because he's bored often. :p

So when I went to "Social School" today (Very popular where I am), I accidentally bumped into Jay!
It's hard not to recognize him, he has that beautiful feather, and that long fluffy tail.
Oops, sorry (momentary pause) Jay! I didn't hear you coming!
That's cool, Duff. What do you mean, hear?
I umm..... Did I say hear? I meant to say see, heh heh, silly me!
Um, okkkaaaayyyy... Guess I'll see ya in the Hangout room later?
Okay, "See" ya then!

Eek! I thought I was going to die the entire time! And guess what? WE ACTUALLY TALKED IN THE HANGOUT ROOM!

EEK AGAIN! It's like I was in paradise!

Are you going to the dance tonight?
Woah woah woah, what dance?]
The Spring Celebration formal dance! Everyone's been talking about it for weeks!
Oh, *blush* I guess I hadn't! I suppose I can go,though!
Awesome! Would you mind to go with me?
*record scratches* Yeah,that just happened. Can you believe him?
YES! I mean, um, sure, that'd be cool! *blush again*
Great! What time would you like to be picked up?
What time is the dance?
It starts at 8:00 PM
Okay, 7:30 should do, if it works with you.




SQUEE THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!

I haven't worn a dress in years, I should probably go to the store now!

I went to the thrift shop downtown with dad, I needed someone to tell me the colors of things :D

I found this dress which dad says is "Beautiful," I asked it's color and he says it's black with some gold laces and such.




Eep, it's 7:28! I should go downstairs now and wait casually...

AAAAARRGHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABLEEEEEEEEEK THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!

Tonight was wonderful, I've never been to a dance before and I didn't expect it to be like that!

1) There was snacks, hello? Why wasn't I informed that such blissful delights would be attending?

2) They had CUPCAKES! This is beyond a blissful delight, it's DOWNRIGHT EPIC.

3) The cupcakes had sprinkles. S-P-R-I-N-K-L-E-S.

4) It was all free! HAHA! SO MUCH AWESOMENESS!


I bumped into like, 5 people though. Jay asked if I was okay, I don't think I'm ready to tell him yet.

We've decided that it was suuuuuch a fun night, but we're going to stay just friends.


Most amazing part, I know it doesn't seem real, but it happened:

I spazzed for a second when we were talking, and guess what? Eek, I saw just a flash. Jay... I was looking at him I guess. Agh it was so great.

I was all like *screams* And Jay was all like, *gasp* Are you 'kay, Duff? And then I was all like, *dreamily* Of course, *giggles* And HE was all like, *nervous laugh* Uhm, okay...

So today, at school, I hung out with Jay. He introduced me to some of his friends, and I asked dad to look up pictures of them.

This is Raoul:
Image

And this is Christine:
Image

They're siblings, so I couldn't help but ask if their parents were fans of the Phantom of the Opera.
They didn't get it :roll:

Raoul said hi and complimented my outfit.

(I think I was wearing my cloak and a rose in my hair)

I thanked him and complimented his fur texture... yeah, I know it's weird. But I can't be honest and say anything else!

He chuckled and said thanks.

Christine said my clothes were very original, and she loves that "Dark look" I have going on.

"Thanks" I responded. I can't do the texture of the fur again, that's been done. Eek,
"I adore your voice," I said nervously. She said thanks.

So, another bad part about being disabled in the manner I am and having to use the "Bat way" of moving around, is you can't talk to people while walking if you're paying attention. That happened to me today. I was "Looking" in front of me when us four were walking, and I walked smack into a wall, a trash can, and a football player.
Jay asked if I was okay, but of course I said yes.
If our friendship builds for another week, I guess I might be able to tell him...

Woo, school was out today! They do that semi-often.

Jay called me and asked if I wanted to go with him, Raoul and Christine to the movies later.
I asked dad and he said it was fine with him, as long as I didn't misbehave.

So when he dropped me off there, they were already waiting for me.
Hey, Duff!-Jay
Hi Jay!
Glad you could come, I'm hoping we can hang out more, you seem really cool!-Christine
Yeah!-Raoul
Thanks! I think you are all cool too! I'm happy I could come!

Then we walked in and they ordered snacks and stuff, they asked if I wanted anything and I said no thanks :)
When they weren't looking, I snuck up to the person who's at the thingy... Where they sell stuff... Cashier? Waiter? I dunno. I'll just call them snackies. Well, I snuck up to the snackie, and asked if I could have a "Blind Headphones" For the movie. I handed the snackie five dollars as a tip when they gave me one, then I trotted back to the herd.

The movie was called "Night of the Living Chickens" Don't judge. 'Twas a dumb name, good movie.

After the movie, we went to Christine and Raoul's house and talked about the movie.

I just loved the part when Stacy turned around and saw the chickens caving in on her, chanting for her blood!
That was great, but my favorite part was when Nathaniel was running through the woods, searching for Stacy and the chickens fell down from the trees and landed on him.
I loved it all! What about you, Duff?
Hm, I liked the part when Nathaniel got attacked by the chickens in the forest, too.
What was that you were wearing in there, anyway, Duff?
Blargh, what should I say? Hm, I don't want them to treat me any differently than they do.
Um, they were... *murmurs* Headphones...
Why were you wearing those? How could you pay attention to the movie with those?
Errmmmm.... It's sort of a long story...
*Checks clock* We have time.
*Sigh*, I can't believe I'm about to tell you all this... But here we go... *deep breath*
When I was a kid, I was playing with my old friends and I tripped and slammed my face into a tree, it scraped my entire face so bad I had to go to the hospital

*Gasps from all*
Yeah. Well, with some treatment, my face was fine, still hurt though. A miracle the fur grew back... Anywhoo, my eyes, however, were infected deeply. Through each surgery my sight faded more and more, until I couldn't see anymore... I mean, like, once every other year or something I spazz and can see for a fraction of a second. That's why I screamed at the dance, Jay. The headphones were for "The Blind," so that they can "See" the movie, it's really just a narrator.
I always wear dark clothes because I used to love them, and I don't want to look ridiculous. Black goes with black, and vice versa.

*All gape*
I can... Go... if you... want...
Are you crazy, girl? That's so cool! I've never met anyone like you before! But I have a question, why are you in regular school? Shouldn't you go to a special school?
I SHOULD, but I pleaded with my dad not to make me go to one of those schools. In my months on the couch recovering from surgery, I trained myself to make a quiet noise and hear the sound waves bounce off everything.
So that's why you were missing for most of that year...
Yeahh...
How do you write, though?
I have a sensitive sense of feeling, I can feel the marks that people leave when they write. I can also feel the ink on a paper... But pleeeaaaaasssseeeee don't tell anyone else, I didn't even want you all to know...
Why?
I don't want to be treated like I'm not normal...


Crazy. I think I might avoid them for a bit... I've known them for too short a time to have told them that. My teachers don't even know!

I wore a tense disguise to school today.

Image

I carried around all of that weird food stuff because practically anybody who's ever talked to me know I don't like sweets.

I went through about half the day, when I accidentally bumped into Jay. My weird wig disrupted my sound waves from what I'm accustom to.

Hey, Duff! I've been wondering where you've been!
*low voice* Uhm, who's Duff? My name's... uhh.... Tiana! YES TIANA!
*Laughs* GOod one, Duff. What's with the costume?
What costume? This is my regular wear.
Duff, I know it's you. You don't have to hide, I'll always treat you the same way ;)
I'm not Duff, she hates sweets! Look at all of what I have! *Pours out backpack filled with yucky desserts*
Wow, nice collection, "Tiana." I guess I'll go look for Duff elsewhere. G'day!

I don't think he fell for it. He gave me a "I'm a-gonna pretend I think it's not you, but I really know it is" look.

At lunch I sat by myself, and Jay came over and sat by me. Oh gosh, 'twas a mixture of grand/not.

Hi, "Tiana," What'd you get?
*Twitches* AGH! I mean, uh, *low voice* OH, I uh, got some... cake... and... cannolis. What about you?
I just got a salad.

Oh how wonderful that sounded. Sahhhhhhhchleeeeeeeeeddddddddd So quaint, so majestic, such domination over my will-power.

Ooh salad!... I mean... Uhm... *low voice* Salad, yuck. That sounds so... *quietly* good... no, no SALAD IS BAD!
.... ;)
Crumb. You got me. *Sigh* Want to trade? I know you love cannolis...
Heheh, I knew you'd say that. Here, *pushes salad over to me* Sorry for pestering sooo much, I just wanted to tell you that I'll always treat you normally. I've treated you like this for 11 years, why change now?
:D Thanks...
But what was with the AGH? That was startling :)
I had another one of my spazzes... I've never had two so close together before... I don't even know what's with it!

It was my birthday today, I turned 16... But why must I act mature? It's no fun!

So we went to Pizza and Play. Dad said I can invite anyone, so I invited Jay, Raoul and Christine.

I that I shouldn't have invited Raoul and Christine at first,
They might have felt awkward around me...

...


But it turned out okay.

They tried to act normal, but it was sort of obvious they felt a bit bizarre around me.

That's fine, though. I expected them to.

People have always treated me differently when they find out.

That's what happened with Alicia and Dillon.

I haven't talked to them in ten years, they left me for another.


WAIT! This is my birthday! I'm not supposed to be sad!

I'll get back to the story.

All of my friends showed up, and we had cupcakes.

With Sprinkles!

Such beauteous sprinkles, all life dwells because of sprinkles.


They all brought me things, sooo nice of them! I could hardly believe it!

Raoul and Christine both brought me a hat and a scarf. Everyone says it's black, so I'll take their word for it.

Jay got me a hamster (Dad said he gave him permission) and a cage

Image

Who knew socializing could be so awesome?

I'm so happy that I have such good friends!

If I remember correctly 20lait1 stated in her diary that she got the idea from GizmoTheDragon and that she said it was okay to copy (not copy the plot, just the format, I mean. Excuse me if I'm wrong about the whole idea). >~<
