Something’s been eating at me for the last month. Something someone said at my friend’s housewarming party. Just as she was leaving, Jess, who I haven’t known all that long, said “I won’t hug you, I know you don’t like it”. I know she was just trying to do the right thing — she didn’t want to invade my personal space if I didn’t like it — but it made me start thinking. It’s not true and don’t want people to think that about me. [read more]
Tiara: £10; return train ticket: £62.75; party supplies: £33.00. Total: £105.75. Not really too bad for a weekend spent at the other end of the country with my friends, although I could have saved the £33 given none of the supplies were actually used.
Last weekend a couple of friends, Ben and Emma, had their house warming party. They’ve been living together for a couple of months now, but hadn’t had chance to get around to having a party until now. When I first found out about them moving in I asked when the party was going to be. I was told they weren’t having one. Of course that meant that when I received the invitation I couldn’t exactly say no.
Hmm, there isn’t much actually, with exams and all, I haven’t had much time, but there are a few things.
Emma, Ben, Tim and Scott were going to go to White Rose this weekend, and Emma asked Natalie and I if we wanted to go with them. Natalie couldn’t because of her work, so she said no. I would have liked to, but I didn’t have any money and I wanted to spend time with Natalie – I don’t get chance to see her any other time really because we bot have full time college timetables, and especially during the exams we cant get out to see each other as much as we would like (Emma irritates me a little in that way – I mean since she dropped out of college she gets to see Ben whenever he has a free period and doesn’t seem to realise that is is harder for some of us who have to work round two of us not just one, that one of us cant just run to the other when we want with no other things that have to be done), so we want to see each other when we can – so I said I wouldn’t go either.
