That Kate Girl

I didn’t end up going out yesterday with Em. She called me up and said that she was “really sorry” and that “she couldn’t make it” and that Jack needed her or some shit. What about me, Kate, you know, that chick who you used to see all the time, your best mate? Remember her? I’m not too convinced that she does.

You may believe that I am overreacting, but the truth is, maybe it is for the best. Life after school is hard, in terms of keeping in touch with people anyhow. I haven’t kept in touch with a lot of people, which I regret to some extent (though I do still see the majority of them at parties, etc). It’s just a bit harder with Emma, to be ‘cool with it’, with us drifting apart. She’s been my bestie since her and her family moved here when we were in (I think) Grade 4 at Primary School. The minute we met I knew she’d be significant in my life. And she has been. Now that girl taught me how to party. She is such a party girl, so lively and energetic. And confident! Ultra-confident. Lately though, all that has faded a bit. Not so lively or energetic or confident anymore. And I don’t believe she has gone to a proper dance-till-you-drop party for a while. Sometimes I think, maybe the reason she has changed is because of her boyfriend, Jack. Emma has never been much of a relationship girl, so when she got hooked up by Jack, I was very surprised, but so happy for her. Or maybe she has just grown up.

I was just looking forward to seeing her yesterday I spose; shopping buddies like the old days. 

So I spent the afternoon cleaning my room. I didn’t finish but it is looking waaaay better already. Don’t you just love walking into a neat and tidy room after it being messy for such a long time?

Ah yes, and don’t forget to check out thatglam.wordpress.com/ for some sweet fashion chit chat, written by me!

People change…and grow in and out of each others friends’ lives… it happens. It’ll happen to you too as you explore your relationship with Taj and as you get older The way you describe your friendship, I can almost promise you that it will not end so easily. Patience is a virtue, and one day you’ll both be reminiscing about these days and laughing about it gleefully.

I’m sure she’d appreciate this blog post if she reads it

Argh.. I hate when people act that way. It happened to me in the past I know how it feels. People change..
Thanks for the comment you made on my site, I appreciated it a lot.
