Evermore and non-sentimental goodbyes.

So, my aunt and grandpa just left. My aunt's been living with us for the last couple of years and my grandpa, my whole life. I don't know even when my grandpa's coming back, really. It's because of this stupid family feud. Now everything's upside down and suddenly everyone's taking sides. Ugh. I hate this. "Bye," I said awkwardly, as they walked out the door. I felt like I should maybe give them a hug or whatever but I'm not really one for expressing sentiment. Now, I just feel like I'm in that awful gap of unknown on words left unsaid and things left undone. Which brings me back to my main point - I hate goodbyes.

Went shopping this morning but I didn't really buy much. I just went to the library, browsed some bookstores and bought two black headbands which are pretty nice. It's actually a bit of statement for me because whenever I go with mum, she never lets me go near dark colours. Apparently, they're "dark".
Reading Evermore by Alyson Noel at the moment. I'm getting rather sick of being in Eva's extremely irrational head and her no-personality "immortal" boyfriend (apparently he has no other skills other then simply being gorgeous). I don't hate it but I don't particularly like it either.

Hm. The online Angus & Robertson bookstore has really updated their stock lately. Which is quite extraordinary for an Aussie bookstore (usually they're very limited, we get everything last here) Might buy from them instead of going to Amazon next time.

Music: River's Dance - Greg Edmondson

I hate saying goodbyes as well. Almost two years ago I had to say goodbye to my grandpa, too, though in a different way than you. I've never had to go through a family feud though. I'm sorry you have to go through that. :(

"Eva's extremely irrational head and her no-personality "immortal" boyfriend (apparently he has no other skills other then simply being gorgeous)."
That sounds quite similar to Twilight. xD

You had it a lot worse than me..but I guess the feeling of bereavement is all the same. Feeling bereft definitely just sucks.

Haha it does, doesn't it!
