LJ ON ... THINKING
Okay so maybe I shouldn't stay in all of the time... it's so quiet when all of the girls go out and I have so much time to sit down and contemplate things! Which is never good.
I can't believe it's Christmas soon! I really need to start buying my presents. Our parents totally spoil us at Christmas and we have huge family gatherings practically every day of the holidays. There's always something going on and I love it; I love the way Mum decorates the whole house and I love seeing all of Dad's Christmas productions at Chic. Mum's been on about his end of year party non-stop and it's getting me quite excited about it too. Apparently she's been on the phone to Josh's Mum quite a bit and they've struck up quite a friendship, which is really nice, but a shame because I haven't told her that me and Josh aren't exactly together like she thinks we are, and I guess Josh hasn't told his Mum either. Anyway Mum said that she didn't realise Josh's Mum was a fashion designer and was already a very good aquaintance of Dad's, he didn't realise that she was Josh's Mum and so she received two invites; an official one in the post and an informal one over the phone. Mum said she had only just got back to work after being off for the past year for 'personal reasons', which maybe could be her taking time out to look after Josh's brother. Anyway so both families are really excited about the party, and I guess me and Josh have to sort things out.
This year it's going to be really important for me; Dad knew that I always wanted to go into fashion journalism and him being the sensible businessman he is made me promise that I would study at uni like every one else before I got a job; either by him or another company. He knew there was already enough gossip going around Hallam about me being the favourite and we agreed that I had to work for it the same as every body else; and besides, if he gave me a job and then something happened to him or the company, I would be out on my own with no qualifications. So now that I'm coming up to graduation next year I'll be looking for someone to take me on and instead of just choosing Dad's company I want to keep my options open. And all of the big people are going to be there on Nov 15th and I really have to impress them. I'm really nervous but really excited, and to be honest I can't think of anyone else I would like to be on the arm of rather than Josh.
Which pretty much explains everything doesn't it...
