I can’t believe how quick this year has gone by. I also can’t believe how much things change. Change seems to happen slowly, you don’t notice it happening when you’re in the moment. But when you look back over a year, you realise just how much & how many things have changed.
I’ve lost friends, gained friends. I’ve lost a friend to death. That was hard. It only happened a few weeks ago too. A guy in my class named Matt. He was 19-20 (I could never remember if he was older, or younger than me.) He was addicted to drugs. He was trying to get his life straight tough, trying to quit. He had a job, his own place, a car. He was doing the same course as me (which is how I know him). But drugs had such a grip on him, that in the end, he lost his life to them. Well that’s what is suspected, his body was found in his car, an autopsy was performed, but apparently found nothing.
I wasn’t close friends with him, we never did speak outside of class. But losing him from my life, just knowing he’s not alive any more, it affected me. I cried when I found out, was in shock. I found it hard to believe that I would never see him again. In my memories, he’s alive, & knowing that he’s not alive any more in real life… It’s upsetting. I didn’t think the last time I seen him, would be the last time I’d ever see him…
We spent the day in class talking. We didn’t do work, we just sat & talked. He was good to talk to. He was good at listening, & respecting your opinion. I’m glad at least the last time I seen him, was a good memory. & it wasn’t brief. I hadn’t been to school for a while when I seen him, he said hello to me 3 separate times. He seemed happy to see me again. I was also happy to see him. I miss him. I wish he knew how highly I thought of him.
Rest in Peace Matt. <3
In 5 days World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is released! I pre ordered the collectors edition for my boyfriend Luke & myself. I can’t wait for it! It should be awesome. I recently got my Warlock to level 80. I set a goal to get to level 80 & get the Bronze Drake. I liked the sense of achievement I got when I completed my goal! I’m looking forward to playing Worgens. Although my main faction I play is Horde. Blizzard had a sale on the old games, so I ended up buying them for my sister Jacqueline-Emma, including pre-ordering a digital copy of Cataclysm. She made a Blood Elf Hunter, & I made a Blood Elf Paladin, & we’re questing together. It’s fun. We’re only level 13 at the moment. She doesn’t play much.
It’s the Summer holidays for me now, my little sister Jayde is still at school, but she’s in primary school, it’s a bit different to what I was doing. I don’t have anything planned for the holidays. It’s so nice to know I don’t have school for a few months.
I’ll be hopefully doing IT next year. Just Cert II. I want to eventually get into website design.
It’s 5:15am. No, I’m not up early, I haven’t slept all night. I woke up at 6pm yesterday. My sleeping is always messed up it seems. At least it’s the holidays so I don’t have to worry about school.
