Got the bus into town with K, T, L & A Headed to HMV and got my favourite cd. Tried on clothes in River island and Topshop, nothing looked good, the shiny skirt and fluffy top looked amazing on T and she knew it!
Pinched lip liners from Body shop, sprayed some White musk and managed to get out without anyone noticing.
Ate two Boosts and Pickled onion monster munch on the bus home, felt gross, will never be thin now.
Ate Spag Bol for tea and watched 90210 then Blind date.
Met everyone down the passage, pissed on Strongbow super, K robbed 5 embassy off her mum.
Got tickets for Bowlers next week, sooooo excited, hope F goes, I’m wearing my Kangol trainers or Gazelles and a crop top.

I remember those shiny, satiny long skirts. 1995. Is that the type? Oasis massive at that time (but known earlier in Manchester).

‘Met everyone round the back of Lo-cost, saw dad coming out of Vicky wine (Victoria wine) had to duck down the passage, shit myself, was skinning up with F, all the bush nearly fell out, fucks sake, can’t go anywhere’!
Got an A in my English Lit practice paper, couldn’t believe it, no idea what Mrs A is banging on about half the time!
Ate two iced fingers, felt gross afterwards
