ok first the singles disco. It was amazingly awful, so bad infact that it was really good fun. It was like a peter kay wedding. I was surrounded by middle aged folk on the cop. I felt very young and after looking around realised that i'd rather be single than attend anything like that again. There was a lady who looked like she had put all of her clothes on to attend, talk about getting dressed in the dark. There was also bloke who was the spitting image of uncle fester, talk about a mixed bunch of weirdos. On the plus side i won the raffle and got a box of sweets (yes a raffle!)

I have spent quite a bit of time with my brother recently too. I seemed to have said a hundred goodbyes and he hasn't even gone yet. His flight is on saturday. It's kind of weird because i know he is going for a year, then probably travelling, by that time i will have qualified and will be embarking on my grown up life. SOmehow saying goodbye to him is like the first step to life properly changing. I just feel really sad. I have enjoyed being around him especially now he is happy and seeing him go is like losing something really special. I really feel like we have reconnected and i know i will miss him.
