Hey, guys.
In a bit of a mess at the moment.
I have my Drama Performance on Tuesday [6th] and have to go into school today to practise it with Mel and Jack; let's hope for his grade's sake that he doesn't fuck about...again!
So, I'm just burning Iris by Goo Goo Dolls and Tear Drop by Massive Attack onto a CD-R for our performance *crosses off to-do list*
Anyway, I'm also a little distraught for an old friend.
Her name is Hayley, she has a sister and comes from a broken home. We've been friends since we were 10, when we attended Junior School together.
We left that school to start Secondary School; I went to Worle, but she had to go to Priory, yet, we managed to stay in touch.
Later, her grandmother [her dad's mum] died leave Jeff [her dad] in a tricky situation.
She and her sister, Sarah were forced to move to Northern Ireland with her mum who was dating this Filipino guy, he mum then remarried and they had a little boy.
A few months before moving her mum had stopped her from having sleepovers at my house also I wasn't allowed to talk to her on the phone; until she reached Ireland, a few months went past then she contacted me.
About two years ago Hayley and Sarah were again forced to move to the Philippines with their step-dad, mum and little brother - that is their present-day location - Manila.
I haven't been on my old MSN account for aaaages, but something made me check back, I signed in and there Hayley was eager to talk to me.
She'd been worried where I'd gone to, and that a lot of things have happened over the past few weeks.
Anyway, I'll cut to the chase and say that she divulged information that she's been sexually abused by her step-dad.
I knew there was something wrong as she addressed him as 'Step-dad' instead of the usual 'Uncle Melvin' in respectful Filipino custom.
Her mum - the one that broke her confidence years ago - is in the UK right now while Hayley was having that done to her.
I'm putting my old plan of action right to the front of my mind! Ima gonna get ya outta there, babe!
You're gonna stay with your dad, or in my house, 'cause that's fine.
We're going to College together in the UK - then it's our Step 2. - move to California!
Anyway....I hope you guys are ok.
Valentine's Day in...11/10 days. I'm presuming not a happy occasion for most.
I wish my gal wasn't over in Arkansas.
