Pooh Corner

Today I've been working hard on Vivvi's present, and I'll take pics of it and put here later. Can't do it now, in case she would (against all odds because she never reads blogs) read this and see what she's gonna get tomorrow ^_^ It's still a week to her birthday, but still... Tomorrow is our goodbye for a year :'( *sobs*

I found this awsome text on Thea's blog, very thoughtful and deep... It's hers though, so no credit to me or anything. Below belongs to Thea =)

The Golden Year
A year has past and now we stand on the brink of returning to a world where we
are surrounded by the paradox of everything and yet nothing being the same. In
one month we will reluctantly give our hugs, and fighting the tears, say goodbye
to people who were once just names on a sheet of paper to return to the people
we hugged and fought tears to say goodbye to, before we ever left.
We will leave our best friends to return to our best friends. We will go back to
the places we came from and go back to the same things we did last summer
and every summer before.

We will come into town on that same familiar road, and although it has been
months, it will seem like only yesterday. As you walk into your old bedroom,
every emotion will pass through you as you reflect on the way your life has
changed and the person you've become. You suddenly realize that things that were
the most important to you a year ago, dont seem to matter so much anymore,
and the things you hold highest now, no one at home will completely
understand.

Who will you call first? What will you do your first weekend at home with your
friends? where are you gonna work? who will be at the party on Saturday night?
what has everyone been up to the past few months? How long will it be
before you actually start missing people barging in without calling or knocking?
Then you start to realize how much things have changed, and you realize the
hardest part of being an exchange student is to balance the two completely
different worlds you now live in, trying desperately to hold on to everything while
trying to figure out what you have left behind. We now know the meaning of tru
friendship. We know who we have kept in touch with over the past year and who
we hold dearest to our hearts. We've left our worlds to deal with the real world.
We've had our hearts broken, we've fallen in love, we've helped our best friends
overcome eating disorders, depressing, stress, and death. We've lit candles at
the grotto, san marco or the vatican and we've stayed up all night on just to talk
to a friend in need. There have been times when we've felt so helpless being
hours away from home when you know your family or friends needed you the
most, and there have been times when we know we have made a difference.
One month from now we will leave. One month from now we will take down our
pictures and pack our clothes. No more going next door to do nothing for
hours. We will leave our friends whose random emails and phone calls
brought us to laughter and tears this summer, and hopefully years to come. We
will take our memories and dreams and put them away for now, saving them for
our return to this world.

One month from now we will unpack our bags and have dinner with our families.
We will drive over to our best friend's house to do nothing for hours. We
will return to the same friends whose random emails and phone calls have
brought us to laughter and tears over the year. We will unpack old dreams and
memories that have been put away for a long time. In one month we will dig
deep inside to find the strength and conviction to adjust to change and still keep
each other close.

And somehow, in some way, find our place between these two worlds.

In one month...are you ready?



Back to my own writing

Oh well I feel totally empty after reading the text above.. Don't know what to write at the moment.

Ok I can write this: Chris I'd totally beat you both mentally, emotionally and physically =P I never give up when fighting a guy, I'm as stubborn as a donkey when it comes to fighting though it mostly ends with me being hurt physically... but anyway, you'd better watch out xD

That's it for today, have a lovely night. Tomorrow my cousin Louise is arriving by train at 9.52!!!!!!!! Gaaaah I have to get up early and not sleep til half past noon lite I did today ^_^
