So I came across the rest of my diaries in tonight’s cleaning. After a little (ok more than a little) cringing, I found that on this day in:<\/p>\n
2002
\nI had the day off work. It was raining heavily outside and I spent a lot of the day playing Rogue Leader<\/i> on my Gamecube.<\/p>\n
1998
\nI was in college for the day and I stayed on afterwards with some friends playing snooker in the canteen. I stopped off a friends house on the way home to collect some videos.<\/p>\n
1997
\nI rewatched King Lear<\/i> and Wuthering Heights<\/i> as my first Leaving Cert (end of secondary school) was the following day and it was of course English. I was also very not ready for these exams and I knew it.<\/p>\n
1996
\nI spent the day at a friends house where we played Mortal Kombat<\/i> on his Super Nintendo for the day.<\/p>\n
1995
\nI went to the village bookshop where I picked up a number of books, nothing really of note I would appear. I cut the grass that afternoon and I was looking forward to Star Trek: Voyager<\/i> starting. (Ah the naivety of youth)<\/p>\n
1994
\nI was feeling much better after the sea sickness and was on a coach from the port to Paris city centre.<\/p>\n
Flicking through randomly brought a couple of entries about a girl I had such a crush on. One year had an entry to actaully ask her out as my fourth new year’s resolutuon for that first of January and then later it had a note about an evening we were both at a con in London with a gang of friends. I’ve not seen her or spoken to her in at least 4 years now. I did hear some news about her fairly recently and I’m really glad to hear she is doing well and happy, of course I never did ask her out.<\/p>\n
****<\/p>\n
I feel bad. I knew it was around now and it’s been at the back of my mind for a couple of weeks but I’ve not really been thinking about it and rereading my blog entry for last year stunned it back home.<\/p>\n
Gah. It feels like so much more than two years.<\/p>\n

Today’s soundtracks have been Celebrity Skin<\/i> by Hole, Rock Steady<\/i> by No Doubt and currently is By the Way<\/i> by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.<\/p>\n
