On January the 1st 2012, at this very moment, I was sat in my bedroom. I was ill. I was unhappy. I was alone. What a difference three hundred and sixty six days make!
I started the year in the halls of residence at my university. I had a group of very close friends, and I was getting on really well. Little did I know that out there I would find my best friend in the entire world, Kirsty! Despite only knowing her since last January, when we were paired to teach together in a school, she has become like a big sister to me. We can tell each other our deepest, darkest secrets (and often, we do..), we know how to make each other laugh without even opening our mouths, and I am closer to her than I have been with any of my friends in the past. With our visit to London together, our Glee marathons and inside jokes to fuel our friendship, she has been a great addition to my life in this past year.
As the year progressed, I tried out things that I had never done before, and I made good friends along the way. It wasn’t until a fateful night in July when my life changed in a way that I couldn’t even imagine. Matti and I began speaking over Skype when it became apparent that we both shared an infatuation with a certain Mr. Evans. Our friendship blossomed, and before we knew it, we had arranged to spend ten days together in London. It was at around that time that it dawned on me that I liked Matti much more than just a friend. Thank goodness that he felt the same way! The time we shared together was absolutely unforgettable, and I’m so glad to have him in my life. The distance hasn’t been a problem for us, and we’ve arranged to meet each other three times in the coming eight months, which is going to be just as magnificent as the previous visit. I said in a post back in September;
I have never felt like this towards another human being before. I haven’t experienced anything like this before, so I guess this is what love feels like.
It’s absolutely true. What I feel for Matti is unlike any emotion that I have ever displayed towards another person. Yes, I hadn’t felt like this before, but when I set eyes on him on November 16th, I knew that it was love. I knew that Matti was the one for me.
Okay, enough of me being soppy and heartfelt. Here’s hoping that everybody’s 2013 will be spectacular!
P.S. Mattibear, I’ll see you in less than three months! I love you! :D x
