Going Away To College!
OK… so the time has come! Tomorrow I’m heading up to Preston for the start of my 4th and final year at UCLan. Its weird cos no matter how many times I do this, and regardless of how far I’ve travelled, uprooting and moving on always feels slightly painful. When I returned from Japan I eagerly awaited this moment… mainly cos it would resemble my life in Japan more than living at home! But now Japan feels so far away and I am feeling pretty lousy, for reasons varied and unmentioned! I marvel at people who are able to uproot and move around so often. Everytime I do it I feel like curling into a little ball and shaking quietly in a corner! I often wish we could all just move to one place where everything and everyone we need and love will be and stay there. Its not quite so melodramatic… once I’m there it’ll be fine. Its mainly other stuff playing on my mind right now, making the stress of moving seem much worse than it is…
I’ll keep this one brief! I hope my internet will be instant and easy to set up, however, in light of any potential problems I may not be online for a bit. As soon as I’m settled and have my laptop working I’ll update! One more possible spanner in the works concerns chibi-pic wantin’ people. I won’t have a scanner readily available so I won’t be able to get pics to people so easily. If I find a scanner on campus, I’ll use that. Otherwise it’ll have to wait til I come home, when that happens. Same goes for drawings on my ill made knight xanga!
Well, so long. Wish me efficient internet set-up and no more speeding fines!
Peace Out! Catchya later (but rather, sooner!)

hey! ! I can’t say don’t worry, everything will be fine, because I don’t know what’s going on in your life… but… everything will be fine, don’t worry ok! No really, I’m sure it’s gonna be better to be busy. Seriously, trust me, when you get busy it automatically goes better it seems… maybe because we have less time to think about what’s going wrong
It usually works for me. Hope it’ll work for you too 
OMG you’re so cute on that pic!!! is it still you real hair color?
what a doll! what a cutie!
I am glad you are finally getting back to school. I hope things go amazingly well for you there.
By the way, 62 was Mark’s jersey number when he played football in high school…
Dude when do you finish Uni?
I can make it for your graduation!
WEE!
good luck man
cool! ok make sure u send me ur new addy so i can post u that CD >_<”
ditto for the emo crawlspace!
Will do, to the above!
Yes! That is me, aged about 2 1/2 I think. I put it up cos I had promised Matt I’d post pictures of me as a kid after mocking him over his “little girl in ripped jeans” pic! I thought it would be funny to show a kiddy pic before setting off for Uni too! I have more where that came from, but I might save them for my brother’s birthday (Nov. 18th) I guess I can’t make fun of Matt’s blonde bowl cut anymore, cos evidence would suggest I had one too. Weird!
Something else… as that pic was taken in the summer of 1982, none of you had been born yet! (Mrs. Lott’s company aside!) Behold the weirdness!!!
I give myself e-props! Mwahahaaa!!!
ahaha – also, you have the SAME hair in that pic! not the colour, but the bit on your left hand side that goes out at an odd angle. it looks just the same >_<
you were adorable! -(not that you aren’t still) but hey! i was alive in 82. i’m the same age as you! dont be sad. all your people kind of do live in one place - it’s called Xanga.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Do not underestimate my age, M-B-Masters!
i was alive and kicking in 1982!
…Or did you forget my age?
awww you were so cuuute!!!!!
the BEST of luck in your last year!!! i hope all goes well. And you’re never too old for the music you love! : )
i’ve often wished the same thing..about having everyone you love in the same place..it’s why i hope heaven exists.

yay! you are back in business! woohoo indeed!
