Day Five: Six things you wish you’d never done.

This is hard as I don’t believe in regrets. There are things I shouldn’t have done, but at the end of the day there are few things that I can say that I wish I hadn’t done as you learn from everything. Anyway…

1.      Started smoking. It’s stupid, it’s wrong and I shouldn’t do it.

2.      Got involved with someone who damaged me in ways it took years and a fuckton of counselling to repair from. Did it though. Ha! Ya boo sucks to you fucker.

3.      Hurt my ex-fiancé quite so badly

4.      Admitted to a short lived but quite intense crush on Orlando Bloom. There was severe mocking.

5.      Watched Armageddon. Hours of my life I will never get back.

6.      Ever heard the song “Barbie girl”

Day Six: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever)

There is no way I could list five individuals as I’m very lucky and there are too many special people in my life that if I just listed five it would do a terrible injustice to everyone else. So I cheated.

1.      My Gillespian and fandom friends who have shown me so much love and fun and friendship over the last year and given me support when I’ve needed it the most

2.      My “RL” friends, L, L, and V in particular, who were always there when I needed them and let me know just how loved I was.

3.      My parents. We have issues, oh hell we have issues, but I still know that they would always be there for me and they have supported me through my life even when they haven’t always agreed with me and I do love them.

4.      My Guide unit. It doesn’t matter how bad a week I have had, when I get with that group of kids they lift my spirits, remind me how to laugh and have fun. Seeing the world from their point of view is never dull.

5.      Everyone who has ever educated me or taught me. Giving me the ability to think, analyse, debate, argue and stand by my thoughts and opinions is the greatest thing I could have.

It was something none of them expected.

He was the gangly geek. Had that pale pallor of one who sees to many computer screens and not enough sunbeams. Limbs uncurled themselves at odd angles. Frankly he looked like he could barely dress himself most days.

So when Ryan and his team watch Connor swoop down the mountain towards them with perfect parallel skis, and dig in for a pin-point halt in front of them they are somewhat surprised. So much so that by the time they register he’s covered them in snow, he’s off, smoothly away down the next piste.
