LONDON: 1/12/11
Okay, so to be honest, I didn't know if I was going to post an entry today. Main reason being, while the sun was up it was mostly terrible. I lost my keys and was locked out in the rain for a bit, was feeling lonelier than I had ever been in my life (anytime I'm reminded of being 15 is not a good time), no technology was working right, and I couldn't go to this big group event I was looking forward to.
Then.
Right at my low peak, I get these invites. One friend and I go to have Thai food which was SUPERB! And cheap. Then she says she's going home to take a nap and the loneliness kicks in again when all of a sudden this girl I thought was super cool (like that unattainable cool) sends me this really nice text asking if I'm free. I say yes and we go to a pub together. We really bonded--we talked about deep stuff and I really feel comfortable with her. She said she didn't feel like she could talk to any of her classmates, like she was left out--the girl I thought was so popular and cool felt the same way I did? This gave me hope. We have tons in common and, she put it nicely: we're weird. And we consider that a compliment. I really like her :)
Also, I had my first legal drink(s). Two Guinesses. And a Cadbury candy bar. I have gone from openly sobbing in my room to smiling and nomming candy through laughter-filled lips in a matter of hours. I must be doing something right to deserve this!
Oh, btw: the song playing during my FIRST BEER whilst I'm also in the UK?
ROCK THE CASBAH.
