On Monday, i am invisible; nobody seems to know i exist. On Tuesday, i am a glass door; visible, but sometimes forgotten. On Wednesday, i am a three leaf clover; nothing special. On Thursday, i am a camera without a memory card; there, but unwanted. On Friday, i am a pea; noticed, but ignored. On Saturday, i am a fun-sized candy bar; respected, but never good enough. On Sunday, I am a queen. I have survived another week in my life, and it feels amazing. Until ten o'clock at night when i realize in nine hours i will be invisible again. I try to enjoy my last moments as queen, but it’s hard to pretend when reality hits you. I cannot decide if i like Sunday. It is like a bag of chips. In the beginning, they are both pleasing. You have no school for the second time that week, you have a deliciously unhealthy, but wanted, snack. But then, you realize there is school tomorrow, you realize you have been defrauded and the bag is practically empty. They always end in disappointment. I cannot decide if the good balances with the bad, or if one is overweighed. I cannot decide if i prefer six and a half days of disappointment, or half a day of bluffing myself. I cannot decide if i like being queen, or if it is a waste of time. I cannot decide if pretending is superior to knowing what i am. I cannot decide if life is enjoyable when it is like a broken record, the same situations repeating over and over. Because before i am able to decide on anything, i am too busy being invisible again.

I Think I Hate Sunday
