I'm not really sure how I feel right now, but I have an experience to talk about.
Tonight I went to my mum's best friend Gary's house for a barbecue. Now, our family used to be extremely close with his. He has twin daughters that are a year younger than me, and they were some of my closest friends for years; from about age four to twelve. One of them, Ellexis, more so than the other. Before tonight, I hadn't seen either of them in months, and before THAT, it had been practically a year. It's weird to see them all grown up, because I suppose with friends I had when I was younger, I'll always sort of view them in that young, innocent light. That's why I find it hard to be myself, and tell them about personal experiences. It still hasn't really dawned on me that they're going through what I go through, and that they are literally fourteen now. It kind of makes me sad.
I was informed that my mother knows the manager of Silvercity very well, and that she is going to talk him into getting me a summer job as an usher. So if you come to the theatre, I will be there, smiling like an idiot, saying 'Theatre 3 on your left'. Apparently I'll get to see free movies whenever I want, too, which means YUM YUM for me... if you know what I mean.
You know, ten months is a long time to be going out with someone at this age. And there have been plenty of times where I worried that the feelings were fading, or that it wasn't as fantastic when we spent time together anymore. But just when the doubt really starts to set in, we have an amazing night or an amazing series of days, and it feels like I'm falling in Love all over again. If we can keep renewing all of it without even trying, I think we'll be pretty well off for a long time. And that is such a wonderful thought.
It was really nice to see Kylee today, and loiter around Churchill Square. However, a good deal of that niceness was counterracted when she tossed me into the fountain pool and soaked me from the belly down. I felt like a whale for like 4 hours. I met Chris, he seems pretty great. I guess Kylee's really lucky to have found him and gained him so quickly. Though I do truly appreciate having to work for who I want. You know, making sacrifices and the lot. I suppose it's alright either way. The point of this thought was to say that Chris is awesome, and Kylee is lucky.
This is getting long, and I hate the thought of having everyone lose interest in my entries. So... I guess I'll stop. Though I really don't want to.
