*Think Positive, Think Postive, Think Positive*

It's hard to be positive sometimes. I always knew my ex was a liar, but I found a teddy he gave me ages ago, apparently "especially made for me", & I found where he'd cut off the tag. I guess that just made it real to me. & it hurt. I know I'm only young, but I honestly think that he was my first love. Finding out that he wasn't the person I thought he was, that he lied & probably cheated, just makes me feel so used. It's never fun having your heart broken.
But I must be positive (& stop crying); isn't this what this blog is all about?
I went to Covent Garden again, with Lauren this time. Managed to find a nice (& cheap) red leather skirt, drumstick pencils (don't ask) & another present for my sister, Emily.
I also managed to nearly fucking lose it all by leaving on a cafe floor because I'm so fucking stupid. Luckily it was just sitting where I'd left it & the man who'd taken my seat was nice enough not to steal anything.

Edit:
& I've insulted & pissed off one of my favourite authors. God, this is not my day.
I'm off to tell Jonny he's going to hell for being gay, call Lauren a dirty thief like everyone else from Liverpool & call Charly a posh stuck up bitch. Just to make the day complete.

I Feel Like A Winner

For the first time I can remember I've actually won a contest I entered. I never win anything. Yes, it may have only been a prize draw, so no talent involved really, but still, I won!
& I have five lovely brand new books just waiting to be shipped off to me. (Yes, I am also sad enough to get excited about getting free books. But I don't care!)
A couple are by an author called Patricia Briggs. I recently finished reading her first book Moon Called & loved it, & I now will get the first two in her spin off series.
This has made my day, thank you Book Smugglers

Lazy Day

  I was feeling a bit funny today, but I got to stay in bed & read a good book all day (Moon Called by Patrica Briggs) so that made me happy. My seminar was cancelled anyway, so it's all good.
  I'm also going into Central with Lee on Saturday to do some Christmas shopping.
  I'm concidering going to Download (a metal & rock music festival) next summer, & my friend Tilly who's gone quite a few times before kindly offered to help me sort out prices, packing & other stuff, & said I could camp with him. He is a sweetheart.

Ben & Jerry's Will Always Put A Smile On My Face

Especially when it's on special, as I'm a student I shouldn't be able to afford it now. Good things today:
  • hanging out in Wether Spoons (a pub) with a load of friends, a couple I hadn't seen in a while.
  • a nice, long, hot shower
  • author Melissa Marr replied to a post I'd made on the Book Smuggler's site (she's luck it was on the web or I'd have probably clung to her declaring my love for her work & had to be priced off by police. Not good for my dignety!)
