Where did six weeks go?

Hey to the reader,

It's reflection time. I guess that many of you have been asking that exact same question. At the beginning, summer seems like such a daunting prospect. I mean, six weeks in which you have to do whatever you want. Initially, that concept drives me mad. What the hell am I meant to do? What if friends are all abroad? What if I'm just left bored at home?

Well, this summer has proved all of that rubbish wrong. I have had what could potentially be a contender for the best summer ever. As you've seen no doubt, I've been on holiday twice, got up to a lot of antics with various friends. I've just generally had a blast. The past two days have been two of the best. It seems that best is saved til last.
Yesterday I caught up with a friend who recently moved away, and me and some other guys just had great fun. We went down to the local park and played some games-stuff like Cricket, Football and another random game we invented on the spot, which we really should copyright or something like that. What we did that day was really simple, but just so much fun. All you need is a great group of friends around you, nothing else is needed to guarantee a great day.

Today was brilliant as well. But on a totally different level. I had one of my best friends, Steff, over today to watch a movie and have lunch. We both had a great time watching the movie, and having lunch. Then we got to talking, and talking, and talking. Although we are on msn to each other a lot, it was just so amazing to have all that time to talk so deeply and sensitively. It feels like I can still remember every single thing we discussed.

I bet you think I'm gonna tell you what we talked about now. Sorry to disappoint, but all of it's strictly confidential. I'm sure you guys can understand though.
I definetly want to do the same sort of thing again, cause I'm sure it'll be twice as much fun.

This post has also got me thinking. Where would we be without friends? I know for certain that I'd be a very different person without all the great people who put up with me and just love me for who I am. Major thanks to all my friends, they're some of the best people in the world and I don't think they hear that often enough.

I hope you all can make the most of these last few summery days.
Love and best wishes,
