May is over, today marks a month since my
friend Ali passed away. I still think she's here, even though she's gone. I
want to speak to her even though I know I can't. I have listened to the James
Morrison song on repeat since the 17th, it played at her funeral. I do it
because it makes me remember it was real, that she is gone. It’s not working
yet.
It was a lovely send off, seeing as she planned it all it had to be. As bad a situation as it was , it was nice to finally meet the people she always spoke about, she got us to meet in the end. Trust Ali to make it this way. With all this being said she put up such a long fight, never moaned unless she was bitching about chores or Logan (her Labrador), always smiled, always made me laugh and was always there for me. I have lost one of my best friends, she's irreplaceable.

May 1st 2012 Ali was 22
May 3rd 2012 she passed away
May 17th 2012 we all said goodbye to Ali, for
bringing such great, difficult and funny memories into our lives
May 8th 2006 I was diagnosed with cancer
May 2011 I was discharged
May is a very mixed emotion fuelled month, I
could go on and on deeper but enough feelings are on here already without even
being spoken.
I passed my first year on my foundation degree
course! I don’t have any college until September now so I am hoping ill get
some sleep and awesome summer times.
Me and Sond face are off to Portugal on the
12th June for a week, I want to swim with dolphins but it’s too expensive! I have two books
for the holiday – Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and On The Road. Flip flops,
books, music and sun cream.
I am going to
the invisible circus tonight with a couple of people - Sandy, Nikki and Sandy’s
friend Keith ... am I missing someone? Probably.
I will take my camera and hopefully get some
ace photos so I will post them up shortly… I still have to upload photos from
my sister’s birthday from the 29th May! Ahh I am well and truly
slacking. That’s just standard for me though. Maybe I’ll get better at that, I
really need to.
Me and Nikki are also planning/saving to go to
Whistler next year, I am trying however to convince her to go this year, but
next year sounds a bit more promising. Summer or winter, we haven’t decided
yet!? Any ideas? Maybe Summer and then a winter visit a year or two after? Haha.
I miss my Portsmouth visits already, I’ve made
a promise to myself to go and visit Carole and Ali’s friends over there during
summer. Maybe I’ll steal her dog Logan. Ha, maybe not, one Labrador is possibly
enough for me to handle, and Logan; well he’s a nutcase.
That concludes June’s first blog post, it is a
little bit all over the place but that’s just how my mind is. You’ll get used
to it =)
Until next time, stay classy.
