The one who never fails to make me excited about life...

So I have spent the last week back in my favourite place in the world; the place I lived before I fell apart and ceased merely to exist, the place where my mum was happy, the place where I shared a room with Amelie, the place where I met one of my best friends.

PJ picked me up from the Greyhound station in Sacramento last week and I left Alex and the Shanks and that part of my trip to go and spend the week with one of my favourite people. Despite smoking more pot, so being SLIGHTLY less hyper, PJ hasn't changed, he rarely does, and I love him for it. He makes me re-evaluate my life, my goals, and what really matters. He has no "proper" job, no responsibilities, no adult life, or so to speak, and he is one of the happiest people I know. He doesn't comply to what society/his parents/the Western world expect, he doesn't feel the need to go to college to feel he is a success, he doesn't need a high paying job to be happy with life, he doesn't need money or social status to know he makes a difference. He takes pictures. Amazing pictures. Of amazing people. And amazing places. And he is my complete and utter inspiration.
All in all I had an incredible time, with an incredible person. Lots of laughing, drinking, drugs (mad shrooming by the lake was quite possibly one of the best days of my life), photographs, putting the world to rights and smiling more than I have in ages.

Alex and his friends picked me up a few days ago and we went to up stay in a log cabin in Tahoe City (cue, another awesome few days at the lake. Also, went to a wedding in Nevada with PJ et al, and met this guy who, when I told him I was going up to Tahoe with friends offered us the use of his cabin... for freeeee! Logan and Joel are awesome!)

I'm currently sitting in a hotel room with the guys after spending the day in Yosemite; amazing views, car trouble and an insanely moody Alex called for a very interesting day. I wanted to rant loads about this earlier but I really have lost the energy for it. Plus I can't really construct sentances in a way which accurately conveys myself at the moment, everything I write just seems wrong.. I'll try later..
