^^ Greetings everyone. I wish just to post a little story here if that is alright. I have just finished my last happy examination from University of the year today (and now have approximately four months of holiday). I was just sitting in my garden with my two kitties at approximately 21.30 today when I heard my mother shout for me and she said "You have a visitor", and my happy friend walked into the back garden. (^^Perhaps I shall name her Gertrude so that she may remain anonymous). I have not seen her since I believe the beginning of October last year. ^^ I am often very scared of spontaneous events, however this was an very magical moment for me I believe. Gertrude was perhaps the only human for a very long time who I could speak for happy longs periods with and we would often make one another laugh I believe.

I made her a cup of coffee in the kitchen and we spoke, however the happy pixies in my mind were moving so very fast that I felt that I may have perhaps exploded or imploded. ^^ I believe Gertrude's voice has altered a little due to living at a University (I believe my voice may have become even higher and believe that my use of language appears to be deteriorating - in conversations for instance, I may say "It was so long time", as opposed to "It was such a long time") and I noticed this differences and although I am not quite certain of the happy reason for this, I was blessed by anxiety pixies.

Whilst we were speaking at the table, and there was a pause, I perhaps felt that I could shut down. I wished not for this to be the case as Gertrude is so very magical to me.

Also, Gertrude has many, many, many friends - very unlike myself, as I find difficulty in social situations however with Gertrude I did not worry. This event today has returned so very many memories for me and the last year appears to have passed by so quickly (I have not spoken with the majority of my human friends in a very long time - excluding one - although I believe I am happy friends with two boys at University who I sometimes speak with in University).

^^ I am often happy to not be with humans, however this has perhaps brought sadness gremlins to me as I have realised how much I missed Gertrude. Although I feel for my remaining human friend as mentioned above, say Hatty, perhaps the same as Gertrude.

^^ I am very sorry for my happy use of language in this post as my thoughts still remain rather scatted from this excitement.

^^ Please feel that you may post similar stories of your own or comment on this. I am sorry for bothering you all.

It's great to read happy story. My friend lives in Australia so I don't see her anymore and I am sad... :cry:
