Girl loving the tarnish.

Tuesday 28th April 2009.

So, I spent all day getting excited about going to see my best friend's performance of Mamma Mia... then within the first five minutes one of the lead roles twisted her ankle and couldn't walk. Show cancelled. Gutted.
In the end we had a girly night in at the flat, got to love it. After realising earlier just how much art work I had to do within the next two weeks, it turned out to be quite a productive night. Painting my friends' faces with Climate Change campaign slogans is definitely the way forward, even if the paint does make your face so hard it feels like you've been botoxed.
Right now things aren't perfect, in fact there are a lot of things that are very much tarnished... however I'm happy. I guess life isn't about being sad about the things you don't have, it's about the happiness from the things you do have. If we looked at everything in that light I think we'd have a far happier nation. It isn't even the 'things' we have, not for me anyway; it's the people.
Friends change all the time, and even though the ones I expected to stay haven't, it turns out that maybe it'll all work out anyway. The friends that are practically family will be around for a long time to come yet - I'd bet my life on it.
