Mood: Meh
1st September. Could this be the most depressing day of the year? It shouldn't be, I left school 9 years ago, but it still signalises the end of the summer, and this summer (although it has been very nice and snuggley) hasn't exactly been eventful. Yes I've had some totally amazing times - Reading rocked my World, The Hardcore Weekender was AMAZING, and there have been some ok parties and a few bevvies on the beaach. But the weather has mostly sucked, and all the usual outdoor summer parties have sort of not happened this year. We must all be getting too old for paddling pools, bouncy castles and Kegs of beer in each others gardens? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Could it be we are becoming ... grown ups? Fuck I hope not. 25 is not grown up as far as I'm concerned!
Anyway, I'm starting to get the duldrums, not only because it's no longer August, but also because Josh is back to horrible grey drizzley, full of annoying students Bristol in 2 weeks. He's hoping to sneak back for a week after he's moved in, I was going to take a week off the shop and we were going to snuggle for a week, but I seriously dont think it's going to happen, I don't even know if I'll get the time off.
I'm really don't want him to go back. In an ideal world he wouldn't. If he faced facts he'd be forced to really assess if uni is for him. In my humble opinion it's not. He simply cannot apply himself, and he's doing a course that seems to be of zero interest to him. He has failed the first year, not attended any of his retakes or handed in any of the coursework that he had to re-do. I am hoping that because of that, UWE won't take him back. I know, that is an awful think to hope for the person that you love. But I seriously don't think we'll last if he goes back.
I would never give him an ultimatum. But I kind of wish I was the sort of person who would. I want him to do what makes him happy, but I also want to be happy myself. I am not when he is there. i dont want another 3 or 4 years of missing him and paranoia. I wish I trusted him. It would make this whole thing a lot easier.
I hate Bristol. I wish UWE would burn to the ground. I wish facebook didn't exist. I wish I could live in a house in Devon with a devoted Josh who didn't even want to look at another girl, and stay at home cuddling all day and not have to work.
I shouldn't be so childish.
