Went to Raphe's birthday party out at Bute last night. Lots of stuff happened, but in a nutshell I got really drunk and somehow I ended up alone with Scott. We had sex, and then later when he was leaving he told me not to expect anything from him since he's with Deanne ... (minor detail I think he failed to tell me) ... so I threw a beer bottle at him. He left. I hung out with the guys drinking more all through the night, and by 5 or 6 am I decided to sleep, so I went to my car. Phillip came over and asked if he could sleep in there with me 'cause it was cold outside. I said sure, so he got in. Now this guy is a guy I've had a crush on since I was in the first grade. We used to kiss each other after school, but we were only 6, so what did we know then? Well, it seems that we've both grown up a bit since then ... we had sex in my car. He has a girlfriend. It seems that last night was the night for the male half of couples to cheat .... funny since Scott is a virgin (well, he was ....) and so is his girlfriend and they were supposed to be "waiting", and Phillip's girlfriend is a virgin and wanted to wait. I think that says something about making your guy wait. Or maybe just something about guys ...

Saw Matthew the other week and we fooled around some. Then yesterday was my 18th birthday, and I had a party last night out at Ashley's house. SO drunk .... hehe. Ended up having sex with Matthew. Why did that not surprise me. God, I knew the second he arrived that it was going to happen ... just the way he looked. He smells so good too. So we had sex in some room of the house ... I dunno, it was dark ... then we went for a drive and had sex in his car. Had a good time though with the party after all the sex-having was done, hehe - at one point a few of us went for a drive back into Kadina (*I* wasn't driving) and I talked to some people who were hanging out, then went back to my party. We sat up all night drinking and after a while we drunkenly decided to get on top of the shed, take the alcohol and sleeping bags with us, and light a bonfire up there. It was crazy funny. I think I slept at some point. Not sure when or where. 18 years old now. I can drink without committing an offence now. Yay me.

It was Easter. Over the long weekend I went out and met up with a bunch of the guys who were all out camping. We hung out and drove around through the dunes and drank a lot. Matthew was there and I wasn't real sure what was going on 'cause he wasn't really talking to me much. I ended up sitting around the bonfire with Phil and Craig and all them, and the whole time I could see Matthew watching me every now and then, but he wouldn't come up to me. Then Matthew started having some kind of disagreement with someone, and he got up and got in his buggy, then after starting it up he just sat there with the engine running. He was just looking at me and sitting there. So I got up and went over to him and asked if he was okay and he said no, so I asked if he wanted me to come for a drive with him. He said yes so I jumped in and we drove around in the middle of nowhere for a while. When we got back to the camp we just kinda bypassed everyone and went to Matthew's tent. We sat in there talking for a while, then we had sex. Matthew's sister was sleeping in the tent next to the one we were in, and I guess we woke her up 'cause in the middle of sex she's outside the tent yelling at Matthew to get out. So he went out there and she started going off on him about waking her up and blah sex blah too young blah too loud blah blah blah. Matthew got back in the tent and we finished the sex, fooled around some, had sex again, then eventually went to sleep.

This morning I see that some drunken fool had smashed a tree branch through one of the windows on my car during the night, and Matthew started ignoring me again. Typical 'next day' for our 'relationship' or whatever the heck this is we're doing. He ended up deciding to wait around for someone else to drive him back into Kadina, even though I already offered. I ended up bringing a few of the guys back though. Got to get my window fixed. Grrr.

So on the way home though either Phil or Craig mentioned about Matthew and his girlfriend. Hmmm, girlfriend. Not something he really mentioned to me before. I kept hearing little things like that, but every time I've asked him about it he says they're not really together. I don't know, and to be honest, I don't really care. It's not like I think Matthew and I are going to get together officially anyway.

Went to Jamie's party last night. Got really drunk. Nothing new there. Matthew's girlfriend Leah was there. Yes, she's his girlfriend. Apparently she'd heard some things about Easter weekend and wanted to know if they were true. Leah and I went for a walk and talked for a long time. I told her the stuff she'd heard about Easter weekend were true. I told her that I didn't know she was officially with Matthew because I'd asked him and he said no. I told her all the times we've been together because she wanted to know. She said she didn't doubt that he had lied about them being together. When we got back Matthew came up to me and asked what Leah and I had talked about. At that point Leah walked up to us and said she wanted to talk to Matthew. He looked at me like he wanted to die and went off with her. One of Matthew's friends came up to me and started being kinda mean, 'cause it seems they'd figured out what had obviously happened and apparently I was supposed to lie and not admit that I've been sleeping with Matthew. Sorry ... not gonna lie to the girl. I only told her what she wanted to know. I saw Matthew and her together after that and they were just hanging out so I guess they sorted something out. Then Ben asked if I wanted to go for a drive with him, he wanted to go smoke some dope, so I said yes and we went for a drive. We stopped on a dirt sideroad somewhere and smoked some cones and talked. Then we ended up kissing and stuff. Odd. Must have been the drugs, hehe. When we got back I saw Leah leave and as she was going I heard her saying some stuff to Matthew about him not being with me and she hoped everything would be okay with them.

The party kept going for a while and I didn't really talk to Matthew for a while, but then when people started crashing Matthew asked where I was planning on sleeping and I said I hadn't really thought about it. He said there was room in his sleeping bag. I took that as an invitation and joined him. So we ended up in his sleeping bag on the concrete floor of the shed. I guess for privacy? Probably, since we ended up having sex. Went to sleep, and this moring began with the oh-so-typical ignoring me. Oh well. Half his friends saw us together in the sleeping bag this morning when they came to see what was up, so it's not like no-one knows. Whatever.

Went to a party last night in Wallaroo. Got really drunk, and whole bunches of things happened. Let me start with the bad. Well, the worst anyway.

I had mum and dad's car and for some brilliant reason I thought I might like to go for a drive after I'd been drinking A LOT. I drove through Kadina and saw Sally and Darren and a few other people, so I pulled up to talk to them and they asked for me to take them for a drive. They jumped in and I drove back to Wallaroo. We were driving around the grand-prix track (not a real grand-prix track, it't just what we call it ..), and I was going super fast (and was super drunk). I went to turn one of the bends but one of the wheels hit the edge of the footpath and we ended up spinning a complete 360. The wheels hit the footpath on the other side of the road completely side on and we bounced up the footpath, did another 360, and went through a fence backwards. We came to rest about 2 metres from the edge of the little cliff there (maybe a 10 metre drop, not real sure). The whole thing probably happened in about 10 seconds but I saw the whole thing in slow motion and I thought it was never going to end.

As soon as we stopped I managed to ask if everyone was okay, and we all sat there in a totally dumbfounded silence for a minute. Everyone eventually said they were okay, and we got out. The chain-link fence we went through was completely wrapped around the back axle and one of the poles in the fence had smashed down on top of the car. We unwrapped the fence from the wheels, and I didn't have a clue what to do, I was terrified. I didn't want to drive because I was so freaked out, but I didn't want to stay there waiting for someone or something like that because I knew I would get in so much trouble since I was drunk. Darren said he would take me back to the party and get a lift from someone there back to Kadina.

I was totally freaking out though, and couldn't stop crying, so Darren took us first to a backroad so I could calm down before going back to the party. Darren and I were standing outside the car while the other guys stayed inside, and he was trying to help me calm down. We kissed. It was nice.

Got back to the party and I'd calmed down a little by then. Needless to say, I drank a lot more after that. When I got home this morning I tried lying to mum and dad and said I accidentally backed into a fence at the house I was at last night, but after dad looked over the car, I had to spill the beans. The car is fucked ! Dad said I have to go to the police station tomorrow and report the accident, otherwise he can't claim it on insurance. Oh yeah ... I forgot to mention to them that I was drunk. Not looking forward to tomorrow.

The party last night got better after the accident. Well, better in the "I had fun" way, but probably bad considering. After drinking more I decided I wanted to go into Wallaroo (the party was about a 10 minute walk out), and since I sure as hell wasn't driving anywhere, I walked into Wallaroo. I ended up running into Simon Murphy and a bunch of his friends. He's cute. We all hung out and talked for a while, and they started to walk me back to the party but Simon and I decided to go a different way to Steven and the other guys. We walked off, and somehow we ended up in the kindergarten. Well, not in the building or anything, but we were sitting at these little kid-sized versions of picnic tables or something like that. I don't know how it happened or anything like that, but we started having sex right there on that table. It was dark and the kindergarten has trees all around it, but the next thing we know someone is shining a torch at us. It was the cops. They yelled at us to stop, but we just jumped up and ran (pulling clothes back on as we did). I could hear them running after us and yelling at us to stop, then Simon quickly said to me "I'll find you when they've gone, find somewhere to hide" and he ran off in a different direction. I ran and ran (it felt like I was running forever anyway), then I noticed these big bushes/bushy trees so I quickly jumped in under one. I heard the cops run past, and I just knelt down in there feeling my heart pounding and trying not to make even the tiniest sound. It was such a rush !

After a few minutes I heard Simon calling out to me so I came out from the bush and saw him coming towards to me. He said one of the cops had chased him after we split up, so I guess I had the other one after me. He asked where I hid and I showed him, then we decided to take advantage of the privacy of this tree or bush or whatever it was (I just remember it being big and having more space underneath than you'd imagine). We ended up having sex there. Afterwards Simon asked if I would be okay to walk back to the party by myself 'cause he really thought he should go home since the cops would probably assume it was the two of us they'd been chasing if they saw us together. Made sense to me, so I walked back to the party by myself.

Nothing else much happened, except this morning before I left the party I was saying something about Simon, nothing about us having sex just general conversation, and someone said "Oh yeah, he's with Janina right?". I didn't know that. She's nice. Oh well. Not my fault really. I'm not the one that cheated.

I wonder why I always seem to end up sleeping with all these guys who have girlfriends. What is up with guys??
