I draw a very fine line between being patronised and being looked after.

I absolutely detest the former. I would tenfold rather someone was harsh, honest and blunt than patronising. I do not want to be told 9/15 in my Theatre Studies exam is "over half so it's good". I don't care if that person is trying to make me feel better; it's just irritating.

The latter however, I love. I like knowing someone cares. I don't want to be told it will all be ok when it clearly won't. But I want someone there to talk to me about how things aren't always ok and to tell me what I should do and to make sure I don't ruin what I have and to be honest with me all the time.

I kind of didn't do what Joe said because I'm still here. But he's amazing and I wanted to tell you all. He's been there for me so much this week especially. And plus I doubt he'll read this so I won't have to listen to listen to him tell me off for being too cheesy (': But I thought you should all know that the sort of best friends people have in films, well I have one of them. I'm lucky.
