Wow, I mean, WOW! Today started out so nutsty that no way in heck did I ever think I could be this happy!
Okay, well, I have a story to tell, so this may take a while. Heh.
To really begin I have to point out that I was up all night bawling my eyes out about some horrid stuff my brothers said about my mouse being sick and all, I swore at my parents and chucked a huge psycho [you know the type, where you get so angry that you don't think about what your saying and you tell your family that you hate them all and stuff, yeah, one of those fights.] Well, personally I thought I was entitled to be angry at what they were saying about Houdini [My mouse], and besides, I never fight or anything - well, not with my brothers- but my parents took my brothers side and said I was over reacting. HELLO! My mouse is dieing!
So anyway, after a sleepless night I was woken up at 6am to start the day early and get some training in. [My dad thinks this show jumping competition is so important that I really don't get a say.] So anyway, I turned over and mumbled something about not wanting to train, or even go to the stupid shows. Well, my dad didn't take that too well and he said I was throwing away a major career in show jumping, and I swore got angry and pretty much said I didn't want to be in the family.
My dad left the room looking upset, and me being the stubborn fruit loop that I am, well I got up, got dressed washed up and all, climbed out my window and I was gone.
I hitched a ride into town [we live in the country] caught a train and ended up in the city. I had no idea where to go, and I only had my wallet, keys and ipod so I wasn't exactly well off, so I headed down to the beach thinking I could sit there for a while and just cool down, think and you know, get over it.
Well I went down to the beach, sat there for a bit, watching all the boats and stuff, and decided that I'd jump onto a ferry and head to the other side of the harbor. [It's like a two hour ride.] So I payed for my ticket, got on the ferry, got a seat and sat down to wait. While I was sitting there I was pretty much thinking about my stupid family, my mouse who I'd just abandoned and what they'd do to her, the horses, my friends, where I was going, what I'd end up doing... and before I knew it I looked to my right and there was this guy in blue jeans, bright green shirt and a green hat sitting there looking bored.
He flashed me a smile, and I just ignored it, looked back out the window and tried not to cry. After a bit though, I just couldn't help it, tears started falling down my face and soon I was practically sobbing into my hands. The guy was watching me and he put a hand on my back, said something nice and just sorta tried to comfort me [we were the only two people on that side of the ferry I might add] and I guess it worked because I stopped crying. He asked me what was wrong and I was so d**n determined not to tell him anything, but I couldn't shut up! You know, it felt really good to tell someone all my problems, even if it was a complete stranger, and before I knew it he was telling me about himself.
Eventually we got to the other side of the harbor, laughing a bit, joking, and stuff, and he told me his name was Josh, and he was a 22 year old sailor who had run out on his job and was looking to start a new life in Sydney [the city]. Granted he's 22 and I'm 17, but by the time he'd been so nice to me, talking and letting me whine and complain and all, I had kinda got a crush on him, so we hopped off the ferry and went into town to get some lunch.
I spent all day with him, forgetting all about my family and being a runaway and all, and it wasn't until this arvo when we were sitting on the steps to the Egyptian museum, eating rum-balls and watching a guy walk past with toilet paper stuck to his shoe [funny as hell I may add] that I realized my family were probably out of their minds with worry, so I hopped to a pay phone and rung them and they were all crying on the phone, apologizing and all, begging to know where I was, saying they'd come and get me and everything. I ended up catching a train home, with Josh, and he's now staying in a motel near us and promised to stick around and see if he could get an apartment and job in town.
ANYWAY, the reason I'm so d**n happy is because he came to our house, met my family and then went off with my dad for a bit while my mum fussed over me and acted all worried, and when he came back he took me away from my family, like into the stable and actually asked me out! I was like WHOA! But then he said he'd checked with my dad [He actually ASKED my dad if he could go out with me! I think coz of the age difference... I can totally see my dad saying something really embarrassing
] And now I'm going out with Josh and I've never felt so bloody happy in all my friggin life!!!!
AND that was all DOUBLED when he told me he has an aunt who is a vet and who can operate on my mouse for free so HOUDINI WILL LIVE AND MY FAMILY CAN'T COMPLAIN!!!! Eventually, he had to go and get settled in his motel and all, but he actually kissed my cheek before he went [which I think is sweet because most guys I know only want their tongues in my mouth, which can be a bit offputting.] and my mum, who was spying on us I might add, said that it looked like he wanted to really kiss me but held off - maybe coz he wasn't sure if I trusted him enough or something, blah.
Whoa. I'm soooo happy. Can't wait till tomorrow. Right now I need sleep. Sleep, sleep, food, sleep.
P.s I think I now know how you may feel about your boyfriend Toby lol When you put down that you thought you loved him or something, I was like, whoa, love, that's crazy, but now I think I understand :]
