in this journal: "If she had a burning desire for my confession she would seek it out, or would have raised the subject on any of the opportunities we've had to speak since it ended (there have been a couple, and all as flat and emotionless as each other)."

This was with regards to Laura, and my decision not to get in touch with her after I bumped into her in the faculty one Friday. I realised that my desire to contact her wasn't selfless, wasn't for the sake of apologising to her and resolving things, but was merely self-indulgent, to give me the resolution I craved but could never have, and that actually, it was the last thing she wanted. It was a really hard thing to do, and I still don't know if it was right. Post is here.

on livejournal ever: "This was almost my baby ... why is it only after a scare like this I become aware of the fertile potential of my body, of what it could be?"

I'd just had a pregnancy scare, and was navel-gazing on the fact that every time I had a period it was, shock, a failed pregnancy. What can I say? I was sixteen. My first journal is entirely private these days, by the way, in case you're tempted to go looking.

I don't know if you read the entry, but was a quote from something I wrote over a year ago, and is really no longer relevant at all.

A lot of my entries are friends only or filtered at the moment, for various reasons.

My policy on adding is written in my profile. I don't like people asking to be added - I only do it if I genuinely like someone's writing and want to read them regularly. I have more than enough friends as it is already.

However, if you want to read me, you are very welcome to do so. Most of my entries are public.
