So much to blog about but a strong dislike for peeps who post super long blog entries. To hypocritisize or to satisfy my need to talk about my own life. Ha....I just wasted 3 sentences on crap!
A few days ago I ran into an old friend who is now some manager of the currency exchange in a huge UK supermarket chain. We used to play 'house' in my old caravan and stand on each others doorsteps for hours after school pissing our parents off and talking about nothing. Now he is 6ft3" and wearing suits and flashing his nifty iphone. I was a little jealous of him, he'd made a fairly decent living for himself, engaged to be married, nice car and seemed so adult compared to me in my jeans and tshirt. Strange thing is he was jealous of me having travelled and lived away from home for so long. We are very rarely happy with our own lives, everyone else seems to have it sorted while we're a mess.
Yesterday we all hit up Tollymore forest park for a nice walk-about, some competitive sport and chips with ice-cream. We will probs never play danish longball again but it was a great day. 2years ago we did the same thing, a little before I graduated and went to Vancouver. It's a little nuts everything that had happened. There were some new additions which is always fun, new relationships and everyones relationship had changed on some level but we were all there. Most things change but some shit stays the same forever!
Today my BFF got engaged....to be friggin married!! It's been on it's way but my money was on the summer. I'm so incredibly happy for her, we have spent so many nights looking at rings and dresses and photography and venues so to actually do it for real will be amazing fun but I can't help taking stock of my own situation. She is out getting engaged and I'm sitting in my pjs doing my families ironing!!!
Think I'll go have a shower, clean up and go talk dates and details with Nikki :o)
