Life In Living

I really have left this alone for a while, but I just haven't felt like writing. Then, something came up. Just today I was thinking about my darling friend, and then there he is. Turns up online on MSN. Drunk. This is my tee-total pulled together friend... drunk and spilling it all about how he's sick of everything. It's a bit of a downer that things aren't going great for him anymore, but I'm more just glad to be able to speak to him. Anyway, it could be a good thing him chatting to me when he's in a state like that. We always did connect and help each other through the harder of times. He seems disappointed in himself for falling off the no drinking wagon, but we all make mistakes. He's got nothing on a girl at my school, who killed two of her friends when drunk driving this weekend. Things like that are sad, and it makes me think, and appreciate how things are for me much more. I don't have everything I want, but at least I don't have the weight of something like that on me. Hopefully the girl will learn from it. It's a big reality check and a harsh one, but lord knows she needed one. Wrapping up my brain melt of my friend, I love him to bits so hopefully he'll get through this rough patch ok.
In other news... there's been the show, and Haumoana market day. Between which I successfully spent over $200. Whoops. I have a wonderful wrap dress now though, which I'm excited to start experimenting with. And a couple of new band shirts, a wicked scarf and pink fluffy handcuffs.
There are just two weeks left of school. Scary, since after that it's into exams. But then I just get to chill for summer. Maybe ask for extra hours at work, or find somewhere else to work some time over summer. I have a good feeling about summer right now. It will be fun. I'm thinking I'll have a few good groups of people to spend it with, between my general friends, and also the German girls, and Ashlea and Jas. We made a decent group today for the market. It was good. Also Kat coming here for summer is another bonus. I'm looking forward to her being around.
Oh well. Chats with Paulypoo time.
