Ugh!

I cannot believe I slept with Riley Finn! I cannot believe I ever thought--

No. No!

I'm not making this all about me.

*I* did nothing.

Oh, that's wrong too.

I'm just...

I guess I'm lost

I *was* lost.

I'm not anymore.

I'm over it. I'm stronger. I'm a new Buffy now.

Being in someone else's body can do that to you, I guess.

Still, since I've gotten back to being *me*, I see things alot clearer now.

I've dropped out of all my classes except Tae-Bo and I'm gonna take some other athletic stuff as soon as the classes have space. I've decided that I wanna teach women's self defense courses. I need to work with my gifts, you know?

And you know what else? I'm kissing Riley Finn goodbye.

Well, not actually kissing him, 'cause eew, but you know what I mean.

Besides, he's a moron.

I could kill him.

Okay, not really, but he's about to be among the brokenhearted

And maybe I'll bust his balls, just for the Hell of it.

//God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?
Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?
Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It's try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man?
When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and I can't stand
Will you be strong enough to be my man?
Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave\\

The End
