Relationships are like swimming pools...
Gaby and I were talking on MSN last night about the deal with relationships and how they affect us and make us feel. She was having some trouble with someone and I decided to help her out.. as good friends do. I allowed her to complain and tell me all her worries and then I began with the advice.. my advice always relates back to something completely odd or weird but it normally works. I said that a relationship is like a swimming pool - sometimes you can get in too deep and become 'out of your depth' the water is over your head or you find it a struggle to stay on top of the water and the way of doing this is using your arms and legs to keep a-float but of course this is tiring and not many people can find the strength to keep it up. This could relate to a relationship perhaps when the male has the control, when the male has the better standing point. On the other hand, you could find yourself in the shallow end of the swimming pool - the shallow end could represent when the female is in control and the male feels out of depth. We concluded that a 'healthy' relationship, if one so called exists - then it would consist of both relationship-ers to be in the middle of the swimming pool; where the control is balanced and neither one being is in danger of 'sinking'. Anyway yeah, just thought i'd share that with the rest of you, lol. (:

25th April. (:
Started off as to be honest, a kind of bad day - I woke up to find an ambulance outside and Ellis frantically running around the room trying to get ready to go on the journey we had been planning. Opening the bedroom door, I almost got knocked flying as Mum raced down the stairs with a handful of towels; confused and a little worried (the only other time she had carried that many towels downstairs was when I almost broke my little finger... she's an odd woman with towels.) Anyway, walking in to the kitchen, I see Dad leaning over the sink - standing next to him there stood several ambulance men.. this freaked me out, normally Dad doesn't go to the doctor for anything, he'll cope with anything life throws at him, but he looked really pale and to be honest - awful. From his nose came streams and streams of blood. Ellis reminded me that we needed to go, so we started walking to the station - on getting there, she realised that we were almost £30 short thanks to all the commotion that morning, I had forgot to get it from the drawer, so then began the 20 minute run back my house......
We got off the train in Cambridge and took 10 minutes to actually find the way out, lol and have a small arguement with this man who wouldn't let me out as I had 'bent' my ticket and therefore it was 'not right' somehow. Coming outside, I spotted a hottie - later, I found out it was Michael.. yay. :L Michael, for those of you who don't know, was like a best friend to me, he'd helped me through some of the previous bad luck I had had that month and I loved talking to him as it made me feel all happy and it still does now. (: I fancied him, and I think he knew that I did, but yeaaah.
I nudged Ellis and nodded toward the fair headed boy in front of me - "He's hot!'' We met them - Michael and Ben - after like months of waiting to meet Michael, I was like grinning my head off, i'm rather odd and often smile randomly. Michael and Ben split off from us and went into a deep chat about something or other, I couldn't quite catch what they were saying, so Ellis and I decided to break the ice by barking and meowing. After several odd looks from Michael, I thought I had better stop, lol. All four of us walked to meet Haydn - whom was another MSN friend of mine. I liked Michael straight away, he had and still does have this thing about him, that like makes me all happy. They kept talking about this random hill and then this boy called Ruobei rang and I realised that they were my kind of people as they began teasing him about being able to see him whenever we walked past a Chinese person. Anywaaaaaaaaaaay, eventually we made it to this hill and climbed up the stairs to the top. I met a few of Michael's friends; Josh, Jack, Daniel, Ruobei and a few others - they were really nice. (: The hill was awesome, it was really hot and I started having a grass fight with Michael.. oi oi ;) it made me laugh when he got it all in his mouth when I shoved it down his t-shirt, lol. Haydn decided to join in and they thought it would be a great idea to try and get me on the floor by bundling me.. thank goodness they didn't, i'm not the most delicate person and would have probably ended up pulling them both down with me. After like a long time of playing with them.. haa.. Michael lay down and decided to get close to him and did the same. I could feel something between us and I like it. He had this head on his hands and I did the same and I could see him smiling at me through the parting. Moving closer together, he took my hand and we lay there for a while just like holding hands and smiling. It was funny how it had all started, he would poke my hand like twice and i'd do it back three times and gradually more, until it got too much and we just held hands tightly. I wanted more, I could see his lips and felt so drawn to him. Next to me was a really hot guy and I wanted to be with him so much. Both of us wanting more, he took my fingers in his mouth and I did the same. I kissed him and it felt amazing - all the feelings I had felt for him since September were really strong and like present in the hill 'adventure'. We held on close to each other, not wanting to let go.
Michael was shivering and Haydn decided to take him to get something to eat. Suddenly, Josh decided it would be a good idea to kick a ball at this wedding ceremony going on at the bottom. Realising what a bad idea this was after the people started looking around for the culprit, we lay flat on the grass and began to slide down the back of it. I did this in the most graceful way - sliding down on my ass. :L I believe I got half way down and ended up getting stuck in a bunch of roots before Josh came back up to see why we had taken 5 minutes to walk down the side. Luckily Michael came back and we watched Josh ride around the car park singing all these random tune songs.. he threw a ball underneath this woman's car and then did a kind of SAS roll under this hedge. :L I looked over at Michael to find him looking back at me and realised at that moment I had fallen for him, pretty damn hard to be honest.

Catch-up. :)

I have had an awesome Easter holiday so far, only been on holiday for like a week - but yeah. :) Yesterday, I decided that a 'make-over' was in order, not a huge one just a small one; I got my ears pierced and my hair cut short.. not like short-short, but it isn't medium or long - woo. :) The whole ear piercing thing kind of came out of the blue - when I was little, I always wanted to have those long ones.. so now I can.. well after 6 loooong weeks. Life is good. Dad booked tickets for Ellis, Abbie, Gaby and I to go to the T4 on the beach concert in July, so that shall be awesome. (: I went to London for Ellis's birthday and we had great fun taking pictures of just about everything we could see. :L The tubes are awesome, apart from those stupid huge moving stairs which scare the hell out of me, haha. It's Easter morning today.. well not morning - more afternoon but you get my drift, lol. I had three Easter eggs and a biiiig chocolate rabbit; because I am still a child at heart, my mum is organising an Easter egg hunt for after dinner, haarrr. :) Of course, I will be joining in. My Grandma is over at the moment, and usually we don't get on very well, but this time it's been really cool. We went bowling as a family a couple of days ago and Grandma and I tied first place which was awesome. My Dad is the champion in our family for bowling so it was cool to see his own 75 year old mother kick his ass. I'm becoming alot more family orientated and as I was dancing with my siblings this morning, I felt proud to be a sister, ha. (: Anyway, I must be off as I have to stuff my face with all that chocolate before my father gets to it. Happy Easter to you all. x

The importance of my best friends.

Retarded, clumsy, silly, weird, crazy, freaky.. - just a few words to describe my best friends. We are all completely different to each other apart from one thing; our sense of humour. These three people are the only people in the world who (i know) share the same crazed sense of humour as me; we can be sitting outside a pub barking and miaowing and find it hilarious to see the passing crowds look all around them for a stray dog or cat. I love the opinions of my friends and the way they are never afraid to say what they think; when i broke up with my ex boyfriend, i was walking to meet Gaby - and the first thing she did when i saw her was to pull me into a bear hug and say "Okay beauty; what's the fucking gay bender done?" Ellis and Abbie said the same thing apart from they were a bit more vicious in their wording. I've known Ellis for almost nine years and she's part of the family, i've known Gaby and Abbie for about three years. :) They stand by me when i need them and help me to stand when i've fallen. My definition of a best friend is someone who stands up for you when you no longer have the strength to stand up for yourself anymore; and my best friends fit this perfectly. Without my best friends, i don't think i could handle bad situations - but thanks to them, i manage to always pick myself up again, dust myself off and go back into the world all guns blazing. I help them too in any way i possibly can and even though i sometimes feel as if i have let them down; i would never let anyone hurt them. I just want to say, thank you for being there for me; thank you for everything. x

All about me.

My full name is Rebecca Elizabeth Pritchard - I hate my full name as it makes me sound about 72 or something, also I hate calling people by their full names - it's fine if their name is short like Harry or Grace, but I hate calling someone Frederick if their name is actually Frederick - I feel really formal calling them it and it kind of puts me off saying their name because when I do I feel really distant from them, lol, I'm weird like that, so occasionally I make up weird nicknames for people who have long names, just so I feel at ease, lol. I like to be known as Becky or Becks or Bec - depending on who you are in my life. Rebecca is just a no-go.
Facts about me
- I share my first two names with Rebecca Waggett (someone I have known for almost nine years) - her name is also Rebecca Elizabeth, and only our last names are different.
- I hate people who are mean to children, I cannot stand it. In my books, if you can be mean to a child - you are pure evil, and should be shot.
- I have a weird phobia of wet tissue paper and earthworms. I can't go near them as they make me feel all dizzy and sick, ha.
- I love my best friends and they are more like sisters than friends - Ellis, Gaby and Abbie. They know almost everything about me and always stand up for me when I need them most. My definition of a best friend is someone who stands up for you when you have no strength left to stand up for yourself - and these three meet that perfectly. My very best friend is Ellis - known her for almost nine years and i'd be lost without her.
- My best boy mates mean alot to me. They know who they are - too many to list, ha.
- I hate people who are mean to the ones I love and I hold a greater grudge towards people who are mean to my friends compared to people who are horrible to me. I tend to back down on things if people are horrible to me and I tend to forgive them really easily, but I never and have never forgiven anyone who has ever been mean to my friends.
- My first best friend died of leukaemia when I was just six years old.
- I am allergic to stinging nettles; like really allergic to them and natural source shower gel.
- I have been drunk twice and regret both times as I realise that I am an emotional drunk and cry. I don't really like the taste of alcohol though and would prefer Dr. Pepper any day.
- All my passwords for my school account are a type of food - it's a phase, ha.
- I adore ice cream - mint chocolate chip.
- I hate short phone calls, but love long ones.
- Wolves have 42 teeth.
- I have a weird obsession with facebook and bebo - which is kind of odd, but yeah - i'm sort of addicted.
- I have lived in far too many places - and am proud of my Leicester background.
- I dislike bad grammar and hate bad spelling - people should know how to spell basic words and use full stops correctly.
- When I was little, I always used to get my 'B's and 'D's the wrong way round, like I would use a 'B' instead of a 'D' because they used to look alike.
- I also used to make every 'B' a capital 'B' no matter where it was in the sentence.
- My hair history is awful - when I was 4, I had flowing long blonde locks - atleast down to my waist and one day Chris (my brother) and I decided to play hairdressers - my turn first - he cut off all my hair and did zig-zag patterns, my hair was up to my jaw line and the cut was not straight, kind of jagged - like I said a zig-zag pattern, so Mum had to take me to the hairdressers and so I lived with a bob until I was 6, at this point, I was determined to get long hair again, so i refused to have anything more than a 'trim' when I went to the hairdressers - this ended up with my hair being sooo long. When I was 10, I had such long hair - but it was perfectly naturally straight. When I was in Trinidad - it became so hot that I had to cut my hair and it became shoulder length. At this time, I was also trying to grow my fringe out - which took ages and it used to get in my eyes, so I had to tie it back on the top of my head in a kind of unicorn's horn type way and still do that to this very day when my hair gets in my face.. infact i'm doing it now, haha. :) When I got back from Trinidad, my hair was very very very long and Katherine nicknamed me Jesus because my hair had no shape to it and was truly awful - even though with my hair like this, I managed to get two boyfriends - not at the same time, but yeah - so it couldn't have been that bad, lol. Now, my hair is alright - it's fine and has shape, so that's good.
That's all I can think of at the moment, so yeah, over and out. x
