Hi Bowski, what a horrible thing to happen, hope you're feeling a bit better now. She must have been a brillliant friend to have made made such a big impression on you, so try to remember the nice things and don't get down. I think this time of year often has people feeling upset, when we all have to pretend to feel cheery. Big hugs to you xxx

Thankyou for that TDQO & Sarah I know she's in a better place I just kinda wish she wasn't It's wierd it always seems to be her birthday that gets me more than the anniversary of her death, I think I just really want her to be here to celebrate it, I want to know what she'd be like now. We may not even still be friends but I'll never know will I. I think because she died so suddenly and because I never got chance to say goodbye to her that I've never had any closure God knows why it upsets me so much but I've just put her pic next to the comp, feel like she's watching me now so I need to stop crying

I don't see much veg in chicken balls with chips and curry sauce, but I'm not one to argue so I'll take your word for it that it's healthy

Well your degree I would say sounds interesting and I'd kind of wish I was there, but as it's a turned out a bit of a balls up then I'm glad I'm not...sorry!! Hopefully things will get better for you next year, how much longer have you got left out there??
I'm from Cumbria, I'd say the lake district but that makes it sound so much nicer than it is. Not that I'm complaining coz I'm happy here but when I say I'm from Cumbria people think it's full of greenery and lakes... not where I come from! Unless ya count the park lake but old shopping trollies/footballs/carriers bags etc aren't the best views in the world lol

Hi Bowski,

My friend died when she was 22, 9 years ago. I still dream about her.

It's perfectly normal to still be upset.

Curry sauce is one of your five a day... honest luv I've been spoilt here, there is an amazing chinese noodle bar that I go past most days and pick up a carton of noodles with beef, duck, prawns, loads of veg n noodles for $8.50 or about 3 quid!

I like Oz itself and shouldn't complain about the fact the company has paid for everything, flat, transport, flights, visa etc but my manager didn't even know I was coming, there was a huge lack of communication and the three of us that came to Oz have been sitting on our !!!!!! for the last 3 months bored out of our minds and not getting the experience we need for our degree. It doesn't help that they are in Perth and I'm near Sydney so 1500km between us! I've found making friends very hard and don't really have a social life to speak of which I hate, having come from uni where I'm out several nights a week and have loads of great friends that I can talk to 24/7...

Rant over, I could write for hours on this! Anyway, I'm coming back to the UK for good in June and can't wait, even though I need to sort out a job and somewhere to live and my ex is seeing someone else which is gonna hurt but... :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:

Pfft no need for apologies, we've all been there and most likely will go there again.

Chin up chuck :j

Bowski_1011

£3 for chinese :eek: I'd love to live there but I don't like flying ..booooo!!

Things don't sound great for you but try and make the most of it while you're there coz once it's over thats it! (especially that chinese offer lol) You'll still have those great mates to come back to shortly, I'm sure it will fly by. Could you not try using a dating website to try and make some friends? I go on them but I have just looking for chat on it. I must admit I've not had much luck on it but, I dont have my pic on it and nobody seems to want to talk to people if they can't see a pic I understand if I was going to meet them they'd want a pic coz I'd want one fo them too but I don't see why people need pics to just have a general chit chat! So go on it but put ya pic on! I would if I was away from home.

Sorry to hear about the ex...You'll be single when you come back though so I'm sure you have plenty of happy fun days ahead of you!! :beer:

Bowski_1011

Oh !!!!!!...just remember you won't be single coz everything will work out a treat with bus girl !!

TDQO

No I can't let myself get involved with anyone over here because leaving Laura behind has been awful, I won't do it again. A friend with benefits is all I can emotionally afford right now.

Morning all you fab single people, I dont know what's wrong with me but I just cant seem to stay up late enought to chat, after talking to my sis on the phone last night I went to bed at 10 :eek: *must have2 cups coffee every evening*

Bowski - just want to send you a big :grouphug: for your lost friend. I was 14 when a friend died - she was 15 - & I still think of her a lot. I think I feel sad that she never had the chance to grow up & do stuff which brings tears to my eyes even now, but I have nothing but good memories & the older I get & the more people I lose, the more I realise that our lives are just so bogged down with unneccessary stress & decisions that we often dont get around to just living & enjoyng being alive.

Pink Twirl - this may sound harsh but people only treat you the way you allow them to. That is not meant to be a criticism, I've felt how you do & now realise that I wasnt well in myself - depressed, low self esteem etc. & as such was very vulnerable. If you feel so low all the time it might be of benefit for you to see a doctor. When I was down, I knew I wasnt 'right' but just couldnt do anything about it because I was so down. It's an ever increasing downward spiral but with the help of a doctor & a short ish course of meds I am now back to former glory with so much kick !!! attitude that I doubt any man could handle it on a long term basis .

I'm thinking eco has the right idea with a week end partner only or maybe someone that works on an oil rig - 2 weeks on , 2 weeks off ... aaah perfect .

I really should go & check on my own thread - havent been near it for days but will try really really really hard to pop back later & mine's a large gin & tonic with ice & lime please
