Sweet, sweet thoughts

I was talking to a friend today, and she was sad about having to leave the UK after graduation.

She'll be leaving behind the closest friends she had in 4 years and her boyfriend, knowing their lives probably will never cross again.

"How do you do it?" she asked. "It's so hard, and sometimes I really feel like giving up." We were talking about long distance relationships.

This was what I told her.

"It just never crossed my mind. It is NOT an option. It's like having an argument with your parents and getting really mad at them. You can't just break it off with them because even after a fight, they're still gonna be your parents. xxxx is family. No matter how hard it gets, it's not possible to just break it off."

That is how I see it anyway.

Even when I am seriously pissed at him and wish with every fibre of my body to hurt him, I know that I still love him...despite all the hate and pleasant thoughts of physically removing his leg hairs with tweezers so he'll feel constant, torturous pain (I didn't tell her that, obviously).

On a COMPLETELY different note, I'm studying at UCL! I still can't get my head around it.
The impact of it finally hit me when I used my VALID UCL card to enter the Science Library, and LOGGED IN into a UCL computer!

I'm not saying that The School of Pharmacy, UoL was utter crap before the merge, but it was never ranked due to its independent nature. I love ol' LSOP, I really do.What's more,

is so much cooler than

Putting that aside, I'm in the top 10 university in the UK and the top 20 in the world! WOW. It was my dream to study in a top ranking university, as a medic, but that failed. But why not as a Pharmacist, ei! The Lord is indeed great and His plans for me are glorious! Praise Him, we must! XD

Lea, I like what you said "It just never crossed my mind. It is NOT an option. It's like having an argument with your parents and getting really mad at them. You can't just break it off with them because even after a fight, they're still gonna be your parents. xxxx is family. No matter how hard it gets, it's not possible to just break it off."

It really should be that way.

Hi Grace. =) I never get notified if there are comments!

It took a long time on a very difficult road to get to where we are. And this is just one of the lessons learnt.
