I would LOVE to think that was true.

Today's been good. Nice to see Unsy down my place for the first time in over a year. It's getting near that time last year where it all went tits up but surely I can't "screw up" as they so nicely put it when I'm just revising now can I?

Gotta remember to tell the Co-op to forget about working me on the 12th and sort my overdraft out (I LOVE birthdays)

Also finished my Leaver's Book. Photos galore with some goodbyes and memories I found while making a total overhaul of my room including:

- A letter from AC Dovey.
- A postcard from Ajay when she was in Skeg.
- A tag off a xmas pressie she got me. (don't ask how the hell I still had that. lol)
- Unsy's 18th Invitation.
- Various Zeniths.
- Leaver's Ball paraphenalia (sp?) including car details and the ticket we got on the tables.
- 18th invitations.
- A Xmas card from Blackie.

The card got me reading through my Year 11 Leaver's Book and I found an entry from Foz. Don't think I'd realised how much I've missed him this past year. After the usual Foz-ness that he would write he put:

"Thank you for your helpfulness, listening to my problems through the years and being my only friend"

Now I begin to wonder if he meant it and if he did what went wrong. How someone's opinion of you can U-turn so sharply in such a short space of time is beyond me. I wish I could have gone to Foz and shown him that so he could see what was worth saving. It's the same with Chantelle. At one point she wrote:

"... I'll never forget your kindness because it has to be said Norris, you are one of the most genuine people that I know!"

Now either she didn't mean it at the time or maybe she simply isn't "one of the most genuine people that I know". I'd ask if that friendship was worth saving but I think she answered that for me. I guess she managed to "forget my kindness" in just short of 6 months.

I do go on about this crap a lot but especially near the time of my birthday we're running pretty close to when it all happened. But I found something that seemed to make myself feel better. It was a tiny piece of paper with a cake on. It was my birthday and while Chantelle/Danielle/Dixon/Sara and Foz managed to not look me in the eye as I proceeded to have a not so happy birthday, Mic, Parge, Ajay etc made me this tiny card and they all signed it for me. I didn't know I still had it but now it sits pride of place in my Leaver's Book because of what it means. It's amazing how you can spend hundreds of pounds on stuff that you then take for granted, but the corner of an A4 sheet of paper has managed to make me so happy even a year later.

Ooh I feel all warm and fuzzy inside :-D
