This entry is almost a week late, I wanted to post the way I feeling feeling when I returned from my last night out in Bristol last Friday night, but upon returning to my flat, with what I would write in my head, I found they had disconnected my internet a day early. I was unable to do it....
But here it is and it may be a long one, so im guessing you might just wanna stop reading now....
My first year of Uni pretty much sucked, I was stuck in a flat I did'nt like, with people I didn't really connect with or have anything in common with, knowing that next year I would be living in a flat once again, with these same people. My grades were average, and I spent most nights away from people talking to my friends online. But something changed. My second year of Uni has been the best year of my life, no doubt about it. Not only have I got a new life in America, but I have made so many new friends all who I love so much and know will be in my life for a long, long time, even once I have moved to the States permanently in a years time. I'm not going to name anyone in here, for the main reason that I know I will leave someone out and I don't want to offend anyone. These people know who they are, and I hope they know how much the mean to me.
I also met a girl in January. It had been a long time since I had been in anything close to a relationship with a girl, and this one came as a shock. It came so fast, but took it's time to become what it has become, and i wouldn't change it for the world. It's now 4 months to the day that things started and its been something special. I am in love with this girl, and we have some special times ahead of us, especially when you come and visit. Never forget how much you mean to me.
I would never have guessed that my 2nd year at Uni would see me make a whole new collection of amazing friends (in and out of Bristol), getter so far with my music, having everyone come and support me so much and just having so much fun as well as my grades improving in Uni.
Last Friday was my last night in Bristol until I return in late August and it was a wonderful night. A few people couldn't make it but lots of very special people made it out. I was convinced to go to Ramshakle after the White Hart, and i'm glad I went along. 100's of amazing photos were taken but I unfortunatly can't get them onto a computer until I am in the States.
But, all good things come to an end, and Friday night was no exception. This meant I had to go around everyone to say goodbye to them. Some goodbye for a very, very long time if not the last time (this had also happened a few nights before with someone else, and it hurts). It sucked, and it made me realise how much these people mean to me and who much I am going to truely miss them over the next 3 1/2 months. And to the two people that came to see my off at the door of Ramshalke, thank you. I love you both so much, and, I know I promised not to look back knowing it would hurt to much, well i lied. I looked back, and what i saw broke my heart, it truely did.
People i've invited, please try and see me this summer, I know its a HUGE ask to come all that way, but I asked you for a reason, cause I want you there due to how much you guys mean to me.
You've all changed my life so much in the last 12 months and will continue to do so. Next year will be different I know, minus a few rather important people. But we can continue with what we have, and with the flat we have next year, and the people in it I know things will just get better.
The next time you read anything from me I will be at home, and I will be writing in a new friends only Journal.
I promise I will return. I promise. I will see you all in a few months. Take care buddies, you are super important.
