Did anyone get the number of that truck?

flyboy_foxHa, I feel exhausted.
Yesterday was one of those hit-and-run days that slaps you upside the jaw then leaves you sitting on the curb wondering what the heck happened.
I spent the morning shopping for university supplies. Can opener, measuring jug, cookery books. Kinda jolted me to the awareness that in just a few weeks I'm going to be leaving home and going off to University three hours away. I didn't realize how scared I am until then.
I feel for Jei though. She has it much worse. She's still having a lot of trouble getting her Visa sorted in time, and to top it off, it looks as though her mom won't be able to come to England with her to see her off and make sure she moves into Uni okay. I feel awful for her. It's so stressful for her. But I'll make sure everything works out. If her mom can't be here to take her down on the 17th, I'll go with her and either come back or stay in a B&B until the 20th (the earliest date I can move in).
The afternoon was... eh. It wasn't particularly good timing for the infamous RP meme, but what can you do? It's the first time I've ever been part of something like this, so it's the first time I've ever been heavily critted. It was a wake-up call for sure, and I was a little shaken... but I took it better than I expected I would, given my usually hypersensitive nature. Perhaps because I knew that a lot of it was true and that it was something I needed to rectify. Jei got hit harder, I think, which makes me feel awful because I invited her to the RP 'cause I wanted her to have fun and be part of it with me. I feel that Anon was a lot harsher with her than with me, and it makes me sad because Jei is awesome and with all the pressures on her right now she really didn't need that. It was really bad timing. But hey, it's not the end of the world... she knows that and I know that. Seemingly small things can just feel rather huge when you're already stressed, so I really can't blame her one bit if it got to her more than it got to me.
I drew a pic for her last night, just a doodle, because she's awesome and she deserves to have SOMETHING go right for her. I'm gonna post the pic here because it's a message that really applies to everyone on my friends list even if the pic is specifically for her. I hope she doesn't mind.
Jei, I love you. All the Uni stuff is going to be okay, and I hope you and I can RP together more soon. You're my partner, right? <3
Okay, well, I really need to get going now. I have to visit my University today... three hours there and three back. I'm a little nervous also because I'm being assessed. Bleh. It's all happening. Catch you later, Journal! Ciao!
