The links

 I do believe in the freaky things that happen. The things that there are very little answers to. 

And I believe she's sent me another sign. Another friend to keep me sane. 
It's just too much of a coincidence for me to think otherwise. Especially when I'm where I am, emotionally and mentally. 
They have a name in common (spelt the same), they have the same natural curls and the same relationship with said curls. They have much in the way of artwork. And have laughs that would make a vicar blush. Hugs that are of the strong variety. 

I believe she's sent me her to help me out (if I should need it and I'm not accepting that I might). 

And it doesn't matter if this is not the case, it just matters that I think it. 

Maybe I just gravitate to these sorts of women to be friends with, but my girl inner circle is small. Not many get in and stay in. But her and her N are just the loveliest and special of people, so they've got an in. Oh I just got another link... N & C. oh stop it! :) 

With N we spoke on the phone for ages before we met but there was this 'oh there's a gal I'd like to be friends with' - she's got the guts and the bravery and the shared likes in music and stuff. But you always think (or maybe that's me) or question why someone cool would ever do the friendship dance. Oh yes, there's a dance - generally involving awesome music, a field and tequila (or similar). 

Ah I like these gals. They're good sorts. 

Thank you my 1313, you've done well.

12 May

 Today is the 12th May - and every year since 1937, the Mass Observation Society asks people to write and submit a diary for just today. 

You're only given a page but I've done it (of course I have). For this year, they also wanted reflections of the past year. It was really hard to condense. 

How have I only found about this today? I've been a diary writer since I was 10. I would have had DECADES to submit! 

I probably wouldn't have submitted a couple of years, if I think about it. I might do that this weekend, see what they all say for 12 May through the years. I imagine my teenage years would go like this:


Age 10 - 12 - went to school, did homework. 

Age 13 - study hall was cool, L, J and I swapped letter books, had a midnight feast. 

Age 14 - I think everyone hates me. Am grounded. 

Age 15 - so&so is such a bitch. Spoke to Nhandi. Isn't that boy cute? There's a disco on Saturday. 

Age 16 - we move to PE soon - OMGEEEE I'm gonna miss everyone so much. 

Age 17 - 19 - went out. 



Travel sick

 There we go, I forgot what this felt like.  See I don't do holidays - not really. I've done a few but it's not really what I do...
