I wish
everyone would stop being so fucking stressed and pissy with each other. We all want a good time, so just stop creating drama there’s no need for.
Day 13 - A letter to someone who has hurt you...
I don’t know who to write to. There are a few people I’d like to say stuff to. Like, hey, why haven’t I seen you all summer? It’s been weeks since we’ve actually hung out. Even longer since I’ve seen you without your boyfriend.
Day 12 - How you found out about Tumblr and why...
I found out about Tumblr from my friend William. My friend Melissa encouraged me to get it because she thought I’d enjoy it.
William then said “Tumblr is ace cus it’s like, you post a picture somewhere, and nobody cares, but people on Tumblr CARE!”
And I thought that was nice. So I made one.
Old Diary.
Tonight I was in the attic looking for stuff to throw out and I found a diary of mine from 2005. It has lots of Polaroids and little stories I’d forgotten. I’d like to share some.
In 2005 my great uncle was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour. Whilst in the hospital he fell out of bed and bumped his head, resulting in a large bruise above his eye. When his daughter went to see him...

Day 09 - Something you're proud of in the past few...
Ugh. Nothing really..
I’ve been a bit of an idiot to be honest. Maybe that I didn’t throw up when I found an exploded packet of cat food with baby maggots all over it? Yeah, that was disgusting..
Day 08 - Short term goals for this month and why.
I’d like to lose some weight. I’m constantly trying to and I’d really like to lose even a little in time for my cousin’s wedding in August. It would also stop me feeling so inadequate, or at least that’s my theory.
Day 07 - A picture of someone/something that has...
I’m shit bored so I’m doing a few days tonight now instead of sticking to the proper days etc.
The Diary of Anne Frank is my favourite book of all time. Anne Frank seems to be a normal girl, maybe I would have liked her, maybe I wouldn’t. I don’t know. But I could relate to her diary. The things she felt about people. I first read the diary when I was about 10 or 11. And...
Day 06 - Your favourite superhero
I like Batman best. But Spiderman is a close second.
Yesterday was shit.
I dropped a tin of cider down the stairs and it burst. I dropped a packet of cigarettes down the stairs as well and hurt my hand getting them back. My hours at work were changed last minute, and although I agreed to work them I told my boss I needed out sharpish cus I had plans that night. I was let out 10 minutes late. Doesn’t sound big, but when you only had 45 minutes...
Day 04 - A habit you wish you didn't have.
Um. I’m not really sure. I wish I could motivate myself to excercise. I also spend too much online.
Day 2 - The meaning behind your tumblr name.
My tumblr name is my first name and my last name put together.
If I made something up I’d get sick of it eventually. I can’t get sick of my own name because I’ve had it all my life so it’s just easier to have that. If I make something up I’m never happy with it and then I get frustrated thinking of what to change it to. So just making it JadeEsson is simple.
This has been such a shit day.
My granny and granda have a farm. They keep cows in their fields for other farmers. One of the cows was looking ill. The owner took it back to his farm and had a vet look at it. It has suspected foot and mouth. My granny and granda are now in quarantine for 10 days in case it is. No one can visit and they can’t leave.
What next?
Today I was informed my cousin was killed in a car accident. I didn’t know her like I know my other cousins, so I don’t feel upset like other family members who knew and loved her. But it’s upsetting to lose a young person, and it’s upsetting seeing people you love shocked and sad. I feel like it would be wrong not to acknowledge this. But I don’t feel close enough to...

Today I watched films 1-4 of the Harry Potter series.
And then when I was thinking about it, I actually have a shitload of Harry Potter merchandise.

- All the films (that are out so far)
- Extra books such as Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through The Ages and The Tales of Beadle the Bard
- A HP backpack

"I felt so sad. I didn't know what was going on."
The Perks of Being a Wallflower always makes me feel better.
“I walked over to the hill where we used to go and sled. There were a lot of...”
PHONE:
Every time my phone has gone off today I honestly wonder who I’ve pissed off now. I can’t seem to keep my mouth shut and it’s REALLY been coming back to kick me in the arse this week.
I’m so glad it’s summer so I can have some time away. From people at least. I can’t wait until Blink 182. Only 40 days to go now.
