i think she is trying to say, "there is no place like home"

She doesn't seem to be going anywhere atm though.

Who?

I don't think you get to claim to be breaking the mould for not reading Smash Hits at 16 really. You can be a goth, a skater or an indy kid. Enjoy . I thought it was supposed to be a bit of a girly magazine anyway?

i don't read magazines.

im not a skater and im not a goth. Not vertain what an indy kid is, but i don't think im one of them either.


why did i agree to cox for rowing in a competition glasgow next saturday?

No idea. Would your NFG go with you to something like that? Think about this, it could be important.

I feel a bit sorry for you kids. We didn't have videos when I was younger, we had to go to the cinema. It was dark there and Mum couldn't put her head round the door any minute and offer a cup of tea.

*drifts off into reminiscence*


Mind you in the fleapit in our town, you had to look hard to find two seats next to each other with no springs sticking out.

what? the rowing? wouldn't actully contemplate asking ... never ever had anyone at a competion i done in the cadets other than my crew. Same thing iwht rowing. Besides it would be wierd to ask her as noone else will be taking anyone not involved (unless its a parent they can't shake off).

the rowing is actulyl that important to me ... i agreed to cox this time cos i let the rowing down in the past.

my list of prioritys at the moment is

1.exams
2.cadets
3.rowing

above exams would be a friend in need, but that isn't a frequent occurance.

correction to above. rowing is not actully that important to me

i remember one of my alternative/thrash/whatever friends buying smash hits or its equivalent once because it was the first magazine to publish the words to Nirvana's Teen spirit thingy.

Indie kids, do they still exist? Closest thing I think to indie these days is brit pop, but even that is apparently passe now so who knows?

Well Indie kids are now just people who read NME .

havn't a clue what that is

Exactly Luckystar, you can't give a casual compliment to a girl on her clothes or make-up and stuff without seeming gay. And not seeming corny is also quite difficult.

You can say "you're looking well" with emphasis on the 'well' and perhaps some raised eyebrows, without sounding gay

DG cancelled on me, he had a headache.. !

shoulda told him to take what ever one that advert says "what headache"

i got school tomrroow ...

Phew that was a long back log.

Bad news on the dumping front Queeg.

I think you have no option but to dump him if your heart aint in it. Its fairer on both of you. Having done the other thing, ie. strung it out for the sex avoiding the inevitable of giving her the P45 and hoping against hope that things would getter better. I only suceeded in wasting loads of emotional energy while I could have been enjoying being single.

Just tell him you want very different things:
He wants to hang out with teeny boppers and you dont.
He wants this relationship and you dont.

Congratulations Kelli, I was trying to wangle a proposal out of Liz for the 29th but thats come and gone now I suppose Im going to have to do the asking.

Icky, One othe reasons Liz has said she's scarred of asking me is that she says Im too , but she also likes that about me too.

I love being with you, thinking of you makes me smile, laugh even curse you, but its because i love you and everything about you. The way you talk your daft discussions the way you scratch your head in the morning .... the list could go on , even being late !

Once when I was dumped mid argument (its great when that happens because your too to ) the girls parting shot was "Karl, you're such a child", Which I have alwys taken as a compliment.

WIRO, taking a girlfriend to something youre interested in is always a tough one on the nerves, which makes it difficult to decide if you want to do it

What it breaks down to is; what do you want her to be a social girlfriend or an all round girlfriend. If you only want to go on dates, then dont get her to hang about with your mates, meet the folks and walk the dog on a Sunday morning. However if you do want that sort of thing then offer her invites in an enthusiatic (but not pushy or needy0 way. If she agrees to do anything of *yours* make sure you have somethign mutual or of hers to do soon or the same day after. This will show that you are taking her stuff into consideration too and will help if she has had a miserable time watching you and your friends have fun while she freezes her off.

one love

You sya about the type of girlfriend ... well she not my girlfriend at the moment anyway so well.

Anotherthing about the rowing is that im only recently part of it, so im only recently becoming friends with that crowd. I would easily invite her to some cadet thing if there was every space for ther to come, but there is only ever space for those participating to travel.


If i were ever to succed in going out with her i would want a bit of both scenarieos. a bit of going on special dates, and a bit of spending time doing something of hers and a bit of time doing something of mine.


The Instance of any girlfriend meeting my parents. i will introduce them then walk out the door and leave them to it. Need to get a G/f 1st to test the theory.

There are lots of teenage girls just waiting for a boy to ask them out on dates. Just find a few you like start being nice to them all, then discretly start working down the list to find one who wants to be a girlfriend as opppsed to girl-friend.

one love

lack the confidence to attempt that. though i am nice to the ones i like. will see how things go.

meh, if i don't find anyone by the time i join the navy, means i won't be feeling the sorrow of being seperated from them.

it amazing how vain some guys. spending ages on there hair.
i never have that problem, as soon as it is long enough to need mantenice i cut it.

Meh! apathy strikes. I have reached the conclusion that i don't give a monkeys if i ever meet a N.F.G. again.

as i mentioned somewhere in the mists of the backlog, i was friends with a girl who i liked but who said she wanted to be single (whilst flirting outrageously!). Anyway i was getting royally cheesed off with this and then a couple of weeks ago i went along with a friend of mine and a friend of hers to see a pantomime she was perfirming in.

Afterwards in the pub she was running about trying to chat some guy up (a bit off considering she knew i liked her, had said she liked me but wanted to be single) Then suddenly she stormed out of the pub. About three days later i found out that she was upset as myself and my friend had apparently mad an unkind comment about her lovelife. having worked it out neither my friend or i made any such comment, but however our word is apparently not good enough.

So long story short i have given up even speaking to this person and have now resolved to be content in my singledom (far less complicated)

Time for a i think

c'est la vie...


i actully tried to get over that fact of likeing my NFG but, it never succed, thus i still like her now. despite that being jsut under a year taht i have kind of then lots then not bothered at all to contened with situation to any of taht in any order liked her.

just guess i shall have to spend as much time with her as is suitable.
