Today was a weird day. I could not believe we were singled out like that because I feel like we do talk to other people. Of course we hang out with each other more but what can you expect?

I do feel bad that people are feeling that way though... we just get kind of caught up I think...

I felt bad for you guys, it wasn't too fair to just keep bringing that up. I mean, if you want to say something, bring it up once. But then to keep adding to it just was hard to watch. I'm sorry that you guys turned into the topic of that discussion somewhat.

I think the main point of saying that "You guys are a clique" was not to say that you didn't include people, but to point out, yes, you are a group. Which is true, of course, because you are all best friends. However, there hasn't been a moment where I walk up and feel "Woah, I'm not wanted" or anything.

I think it's really difficult because a lot of us hang out with the friends we're closest with because it's the easiest. However, the problem is that, for people that don't have best friends in drama, they're on the outside. It's hard, though, because I for one wouldn't want someone to be forcing themselves to talk to me, I'd rather have it be because they really want to.

I don't really know what to do in general because I'm trying to figure out WHO feels left out, because I literally can't think of anyone who doesn't have people they talk to, so I really wish they could say "Hey, it's me" but I understand completely that they can't.

Yeah, its a really hard situation because I don't know who to include more and how to act. Do I stop talking to Kelly, Sarah, and Eric as much and start talking to people I don't know as well? It's hard because talking with your friends is so natural and easy and its hard to step out of the comfort zone. But, I will try to improve and watch myself more.

I didn't mean to point you guys out when I said what I was talking about inside jokes and whatnot. I was just saying that it's a part of the thing that makes people feel excluded.

Cressey sort of mistook what I said and thought that I feel this a lot, and I don't. I only feel this sometimes and that everyone is doing it, not just you guys.

I don't see you guys as a "clique." I thought it wasn't fair to start pointing you guys out, because I don't have anything against any of you and don't feel exluded really ever.

If you thought that I was one of those people pointing you out, I didn't mean for what I said to come across like that at all. So I should be sorry.

I think that everyone needs to make an effort, because there isn't a group that is saying to people "hey, why don't you just go away?" People are just afraid of rejection I think. It's something everyone is working on in this production and it will come in time.

Also, when you said that you're shy, I know what you mean. It takes awhile for me to open up to people and just start talking. I'm starting to get to that point with you guys and I've never not felt welcome there.

I still think that the conversation was good to have and it helped put some bad blood behind us.
