it's only life

So lately my life has been filled with parties, photos and friends which I find to be a pretty great mixture. Loads of people I know are turning 18 and I just keep getting invited to parties so it's a pretty good time for me right now. Tonight one of my friends is having us round to his for a "Shots and cocktails" night with I am thoroughly looking forward to. We've just got back from Asda with an absolute load of drink and mixers so tonight will be amazing. I'm so used to getting alcohol, meeting up with a couple of friends to get drunk before a parties then phoning a taxi and driving to various different parts of town to get even more trashed and on one occasion, thrown out (which I was not best pleased about but there you go). But tonight there's no mad dash at 10pm to bundle into a taxi and hit town, there's just a relaxed atmosphere with loads of really great friends having drinks. It's been so long since it happened that it's actually feeling very new to me again which is sad but nice.
I'm trying to (as much as this sounds sad, cheesy and cliché) cherish the moments I have left with the people I've grown up with for the most part of my life because I'm not living in some fantasy world where we are all going to be friends still when we're thirty and we're all finishing school and going of to lots of different colleges and universitys, meeting new people, forming new friendships and relationships and forgetting what we once knew as the norm. Yes, it is sad to think about but why revel in what's to come when yuo can take advantage of what is still at your fingertips.


Ps; Yes I am aware that it has been over a month since I have written in this so sorry if anyone actually reads this
