Invisible

Today wasn't as bad as yesterday, which is an amazing relief. After I post this, I'll be doing a major load of homework; two hundred index cards full of facts about the Kiowa and the Crow, an essay comparing them and then a PowerPoint about them. On Tuesday, I'll present the PowerPoint and turn in everything. To just one teacher.
Everybody was complaining all day about the project, which I understand, but I can't change it, so I just keep my mouth shut.
Now, I bet you're saying, "Wait how does this make her day remotely alright?" Well, my friends, I do in fact have a crush. He's nice, blond hair with blue eyes, a little chubby but in the cutest way possible, and besides I don't care much about that. He hangs around girls a lot, but he doesn't flirt with them and he's new like me, he moved from Alaska. He's friendly when we talk, but we almost never do because, of course, I'm invisible.

Today, he talked to me. It was simple, he was just asking me how to pronounce my name which is Kaylin (a perfectly normal name in Colorado) and he congratulated me on my good grade for an essay he was passing out. He came back to ask me where a girl named Riley sat so he could pass her the paper. I didn't hear him at first, so I looked up and asked "What?"

I looked him straight in the eyes, and instead of responding, he just stared. All I could think of was how blue his eyes were, it was amazing. After about ten seconds of just staring at him I asked him again. He stuttered and repeated the question, so I pointed out where she sat and that was the end of it.
I'm hoping he talks to me a little more after that, but I can stay single for as long as I need to, I don't think I'll be going out for a long time anyway. I still miss my love in Florida. Any ideas of how to move on?
