That Kate Girl

I had coffee with Shane yesterday morning (for those of you who don’t know, he is my high school boyfriend). I ran into him whilst doing a little city shopping, so we decided to go to Gloria’s to catch up. I haven’t seen him for quite some time and like always we chatted and chatted the day away. He’s also at uni these days, after taking half a year off to travel. He’s studying Law, taking after his dad. Smarty pants. I get the feeling that he is starting to grow up, this boy. When I was with him way back in the day, when we were like 15-16, he was one of those hot shot guys who played footy and got drunk every weekend. He was, let me think, very up himself. But now, he just seems a lot more mature. He’s even got a girlfriend. He met her over in Europe on his trip and they kinda hit it off. And don’t worry, they aren’t long-commuting… Lucky for him she was also on holiday with her family, from over here too. So they’ve been together for I think five months Shane said. But yeah, it was really good to the see the guy, see that he’s happy and going good.

After seeing Shane, I finally got shopping. I went to The Body Shop and bought some bath salts and some nice soaps. Then I bought a couple of new candles from this really nice home boutique. They were rather expensive, but they were vanilla scented and had these nice patterns crawling up the side of them. 

When I got home I did some study, all that boring shit, and completed some homework. The Taj came over and we had some good quality… bonding time. Hahaha. x) Then I set up the candles in my bathroom and filled the bath with nice hot water and added a bath salt. I know it was meant to be ‘me time’, but just relaxing in the bath with Taj (top turvy, haha) was just as good, if not better. Though it was a tad squishy. LMAO.

So that was my day yesterday. And today I was at uni all day. Actually, I had lunch with Taj (we commuted together too), and I kind of wanted him bad. Hahahaha. I don’t know what has come over me! Shhhhh. Well, before this turns into some explicit blog, I’m going. I have an essay to write out anyway. Hahaha.

Last night, as you know, my Dad had his work dinner for all his employee’s and the ‘important’ rich business people. It was all booked to be at this gorgeous hall by the river, but during the day the power went out there and Dad didn’t want to risk having it there anymore just incase it didn’t come back on. Luckily for us, we have contacts, and he ended up having at a hotel ballroom in the city.

I wore my new dress from Witchery and new pumps, along with sequinned clutch and bangles. I also had the privelidge of wearing Mum’s diamond earrings. My Mum died about four years ago now, so you can see what an honour it was for me to wear them. I won’t go into my Mum or anything, just because that’s personal, but I will say how much I love her and miss her, but I’m not sad anymore; she’s happy now.

I had a good night, spending the majority of it with Taj. It was only family that was invited, so poor Rachael couldn’t come and ruin yet another night. Apparently Taj is going on a surf roadtrip around Australia with his mate Nate once his uni exams are over for the year; which is exciting for him, but I’m going to miss him. As for me, Dad’s been talking about going over to Queenstown (New Zealand) and spending a month there at the holiday house for the summer. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Queenstown, but not in summer. I mean, I prefer it in winter, when the ski-fields are open (Coronet Peak and the Remarkables) and I can go snowboarding. Here I am, rambling on again! Back to the dinner… Yeah, so Taj ended up asking me to dance, which was really sweet. I don’t know what it was, but I felt we made some sort of connection, as friends. It was nice, it really was. I’m so lucky to have a friend like him.

Actually, I met these two girl’s there last night. They were extremely annoying! I think they’re one of the new guy’s daughters. Anyway, one was sixteen and the other was fourteen. At first I thought they were trying to get with Taj or something, but as the night went on I swear they were trying to get with me! Ha-ha-ha. Well, not literally, but they wouldn’t stop following me. They even followed me to the toilet and waited for me outside the cubical door! I was like, WTF!!!? Thank goodness I never have to see them again.

Oh shit! Look at the time, sorry guys, gutta cut this one short. I have to get ready!
