Ski trip on Friday.
It's so BIZARRE!
Me and Sarah made a somewhat spontaneous YES LET'S DO IT! decision in 2006 to go on the ski trip in 2007 and it turned out to be amazing so we dragged our whole friendship group back in 2008, I dragged a different load of friends out in 2009 and this year I'm going with even more different people.
It's weird because this is my 4th time feeling the Ski Trip In A Few Days anticipation that I've grown used to, and I'm still not desensitised to it. I'm just as excited as I was this time 4 years ago.
Unfortunately, it does have a bittersweet element.
I'm missing a Boys Like Girls gig because of it. Except it's MORE than just a concert, it's a THING. By a THING, I mean you know how with your best friend you have little THINGS that like, define your friendship, in-jokes, joint obsessions, just special THINGS. Boys Like Girls is me and Joe's thing. For a year we hypothesised and made up little stories of What Will Happen When We Next See Them. You know, how we're going to get backstage passes, meet the band, get photos with them, etc etc. Except Joe's doing all that without me. Because he DID manage to get a VIP ticket. So he IS going backstage, he IS meeting the band and he IS getting photos with them. Everything we've been joking about how we wish it would happen is actually going to happen to him. I so badly wish I could be there. I get this sinky feeling in my tummy when I think that he'll be there without me. Of course I'm still excited and thrilled to be going skiing, but it just seems so unfair that I should have to miss BLG.
C'est la vie.
