Love? Life? Joy!
So it occurred to me while watching New Girl the other day that I have a serious lack of Straight Guy Friends (SGFs) in my life.

I am not ashamed to admit that when I was about thirteen years old I wanted to BE Britney Spears. I joined dance classes, practised interviews in front of my mirror and I frequently dressed in tank tops and trackies. I even tried to get my dad to be my manager. ‘Day job?

So have you ever been in a situation when you’re chatting with some people, maybe some mates, and you mention something about yourself that you suspect they would probably find surprising, it may be a personal accomplishment, piece of family trivia – you’re related to Colin Firth etc – whatever it is, there is a completely valid reason why you...

So I had a bit of a meltdown this week. I actually went slightly AWOL. I almost broke down into tears at uni – a complete mess… And now I feel like a giant penis.

Sooo let’s not go into positives, because we all know there are plenty of ‘em. This is about when Facebook goes wrong. Very wrong. Facebook should be called ASBO-book, really.
