JULY
I was working back at home at my parents business so that I could earn rent money for my student house here in Southampton. I wasn't actually living here during the Summer, I wanted to be home. It was a strange feeling. I missed my family more than I had thought. They're actually sane for one thing. Oh yeah, more about my house! It had mould on the beds, on the ceiling, broken stairs, dirty carpets, the grass in the garden was dead during this time but it now needs a shave, etc.
AUGUST
I think it might've been this month where the house contract got complicated. The girls who agreed to live there decided not to anymore, all various reasons so this is how it kinda went:
Girl 1 left > boy replaced her > contract was passed around the country and signed > Girl 2 left > trying to find new person > found new person > Girl 3 left > found new person > I was in Southampton for 2 days and signed two contracts (one saying Girl 2 had left and the other for Girl 3 had left too, and signing on the two new people).
Peter went on holiday to Prague for a week with his Youth Centre buddies. Told me lots of stories, mainly being drunk until the morning.
SEPTEMBER
This is the month when me and Peter went on our first holiday together to Gran Canaria!
It was AMAZING! This trip was an early 21st birthday from my parents. The food was yummy, the sunshine felt really nice but I didn't tan as much as I thought. For dinner, we would dress up but because it was a family resort, it was mainly filled with parents and children. Parents there just wore t-shirts and shorts, but they dressed their children in cute dresses or tops. Sometimes I felt a bit too dressed up but I was on holiday with my boyfriend so meh.
Oh yeah, on the last night we were there, he broke the glass table which smashed into small pieces. He fell out of bed and knocked it over. He had to pay 70 euros in the end.
Later that month, I went back to university for second year and moved into my new house. It consisted of 3 other girls and one boy. My mum decided not to drop me off due to tiredness so it was just me and my dad. We dropped my things off at my house. My room was smaller than I remembered. Then we left to go to Costco (which is awesome!), then to town, TGI Fridays and then Ikea! Had a great day with him. I didn't get home until 7pm and so I went straight to my room to unpack. It took me 3 days to unpack everything! And I took less belongings with me this time as well. Didn't make sense. I did my clothes that night, decided to sleep there for the first time, but I didn't realise the time and the lack of thick walls - Had a shower at midnight and then dried my hair. Got a telling off afterwards for being noisy. Oops. So I decided to sleep at Peter's house for the remainder of the month, and October, and maybe a bit of November. To be honest, I practically live there. His house is lush though. First night I slept in my room, the heating was on and I didn't sleep well at all. My small room felt like a sauna. I sweat a lot when I get too hot.
OCTOBER
Erm, I can't actually remember what happened in this month? I had work already, I think it was this month or next month that the boy who was living with us moved out to live with his mother. He didn't like us and he needed to save money, but he's still paying rent and our internet until we find someone else. We need someone else really badly. Even though he's an odd boy, don't want him paying for rent at a house he's not living at.
Oh, Halloween! Was going to go out dressed as a pirate, waiting for Peter to come home to go Popworld but while we were waiting, Peter's housemate and classmate drank a whole bottle of Whisky within an hour (second time, different month), he came home, sat on the sofa and started spitting on the floor and on his trousers. Ew. Then lo' and behold, he vomited. Told him to go to the bathroom, wouldn't budge and now he had bunch of angry housemates onto him. He didn't know what he was doing or where he was. Don't think he cared about his liver to be honest.
My parents also came to Southampton. We travelled during the night before the storm hit the next day and we were petrified! It was heavily raining, dark and puddles everywhere! We went for Dim Sum.
NOVEMBER
It was my 21st birthday this month! And I didn't know what to do for it, for my 18th I had a great party with friends. All I wanted to do was be in a relaxed state, watch I'm A Celeb and be with Peter and friends. When the day came, I received loads of cards and gifts. One of them was from Simone - She got me Salt and Pepper Willy Shakers. Mum says I can't use them at home. Ha. I was presented with two cakes (one made by Spela and the other by Peter's mummy - both delicious!), went to Turtle Bay for lunch and then Tootis in the evening.
The next day, I spoke to my dad on the phone and he had a birthday card in front of him, he opened it for me and it was from my ex. Didn't expect it. We ended on bad terms and we haven't spoken in over a year, so this card was out of the blue. It's a nice gesture but I still don't want to talk to him.
NEXT MONTH....
I'm going to New York! Hope it snows.
