Bartley
“I wont be childish and hide your name here Muldoon. Tbh with you Jamie, i want nothing off you anymore, or anything to do with you. Like, i’ll still go out if you’re there, and wont be a tit and make everyone choose between us. But i wont be at yours anymore, and i wont take anything else off you.”
I’m not even being funny Bartley but of all the places to tell me this, you put it on the internet for everyone else to see? That’s ridiculous, but whatever I’ll do the same.
Stop trying to make it out as if I’m the biggest dickhead ever and you haven’t done anything wrong, I’ve been more than fair with you over stuff you’ve done in the past. And between us two, I can easily say I’m the better friend. For a start you got involved with that Phil stuff, which you shouldn’t have done, common sense would have told you to just not say anything, it’s not hard. I know I’ve ranted on about it in the past but it’s still not something I want broadcasted everywhere, it just ended up that way. If it’d been me in your shoes, I wouldn’t have opened my mouth about it. It’s not like I go around telling everyone about stuff you’ve said or things you’ve done in the past, but for once I will do.
Then there was at Rachel’s party when you brought up that Annabelle stuff to completely make a show of me infront of all the girls and make yourself look better and making me look like an absolute twat. They knew the story anyway, but you still had to mention it because you love to attract the attention from everyone. That was you being a shitty friend, whether you messing or not you still shouldn’t have done it just to make you look better than me, it was ages ago, get over it.
Stop moaning about not having a girlfriend and the way Jack and Emma are lucky and Tasha and Burkey have got the perfect relationship, what do you expect? You’ve treated girls badly in the past and it’s karma coming back on you. I wouldn’t even be surprised if you done the same thing again if you were in another relationship, hopefully though you’ve learnt your lesson and won’t.
Stop going on about how you’ve got the worst life ever, we’ve all got rough spots in our lives, nothing’s perfect and you can’t take it for granted but you need to get on with it. Burkey’s got the perfect girlfriend? Well he had to wait for seventeen years for her and go through loads of shit to get there and I know for a fact that he’s more than grateful that Tasha’s in his life. Emma’s got a strong family? Yeah she has, but you’re not giving her enough credit for being a strong person and a lovely girl that’s had a lot of rough spots and still come out top in the end. And to be honest if you’re talking about wanting the perfect girlfriend, maybe you already had her in the first place? You had your chance with Emma in the past and blew it like an asbolute idiot, I hope you regret it but at the end of day you didn’t deserve her anyway. Jack’s got the perfect body? If you want that, do something about it and stop complaining. Me and Burkey haven’t got perfect bodies but we had to work hard to get were we are. I’ve got money? So what? What do you want me to do about the fact that my dad makes a good wage? Our family had nothing a few years ago and my dad’s worked his ass off to get where he is now and I know I’m luckier than most in that way but I can’t do anything about it, you and all of the others know that if I’ve got the money I’ll always give it to yous over me. But again, I can’t help the position I’m in, that’s life, maybe your kids will be in the same position as me when they’re older.
Now I was annoyed about all this stuff, and I might’ve been harsh about it to you on Saturday but after all that stuff that happened with Emma’s friend Peter it made me realise that life can be unpredictable and it’s better to be positive and not go on bad terms, so I was willing to let it go after that. I even said happy birthday and invited you on Friday to show that I’m not being spiteful about it, but if you wanna be act like a kid about it and throw a tantrum and not speak to me about it then fine. I’m not really bothered if you don’t wanna be friends or whatever, you’re just being an attention seeker looking for some new drama.
I didn’t want to put all this stuff on tumblr but you done it first. Now I’ve said everything I need to say, take it in a good way or a bad way, whatever.
Talk to me when you grow up.
Day One - Best Friend
Okay years ago I used to have like one specific “best friend” but now I’m rather fortunate of having a decent variety of good friends which means that there isn’t exactly one specific individual that looks superior to the others. Using too many big words there? Maybe, but anyway… In no particular order:
Burkey - I’ve known him for roughly two - three years now and the first time I met him I actually really disliked him, I don’t know why it was just one of those things but to be fair we’re both completely different people now anyway. Luckily about six months later we ended up speaking and he was actually really friendly and welcoming compared to the last time were he was kinda irritating. Since then really we’ve been the best of friends and although we’ve had our bad times which have been recent compared to the past, it doesn’t really matter because he’s always been there as a friend when I’ve needed him even for the biggest and the smallest things and although I don’t say that to anyone, especially him, it means more than most people know. He probably deserves some kind of an award anyway for putting up with me constantly complaining or ranting on about the same thing, luckily though he listens and we can tell each other about anything that’s going on. That’s what I think makes us stronger than friends, more like family. He’s changed a lot in both personality and looks, which has made him a better person and I take that into account more than you know which inspires me to do the same, I hope you know I’m proud of everything you’ve done with yourself and as a friend or even a brother.
Jack - Ah well what to say about this one? Well I’ve known him since year ten in school, but we didn’t really speak unless I was “illegally” buying a packet of discos off him. But last year he asked me about the course I was doing at college and I told him to join it, which he did. And since around January when he came to my eighteenth, I started talking to him more and that’s how we became better friends. We’ve had quite an eventful friendship in the past seven months that ranges from crap nights in town, Jack going on whitey at Emma’s, being witnesses to the failed robbery at the mills, Jack going through a chair at Joel’s, the banter with Barney and the incident in my room from last week. There’s more stories but it’s quite late and I can only remember so much. Jack’s a great friend though and shares his opinion even if it’s harsh, he’s also like a brother to me but I have more banter with him and luckily he’s there as a friend more than most. Oh and I’m proud that he found a girlfriend in Emma, they’re suited to each other in nearly every way and have this strong bond that just sticks out to most people that know them not just me, even though it’s only been three months for now into the relationship, I can tell it’s going to last a long time, you’re a lucky girl Emma, I know he’s ugly but don’t let him go!
Emma Barry - Well I’ve known Emma since last year and we have kind of a rocky relationship! Like there was a time when I was very nice to her and then for some random reason I just started to be a bit nasty a few months ago, I was only doing it for banter but maybe it didn’t seem that way. But I’ve been nice to her for a little while now which is a bit of a record! She has this crazy idea stuck in her head that I hate her, which is completely untrue. I won’t deny that she isn’t a bit of a pain in the ass when she’s drunk, you know running into ladders and that! But Emma’s one of those rare girls that you can speak to about a lot of things, trust with your life and get bitten by in the arm without contracting some kind of disease! We always have a laugh when we go to hers and she’s like a sister to me, maybe because we always pick on each other but she knows I’m always there for her if she ever needs me to be, she’s got a good heart and she’s the only person I know that’s more than good enough for Jack and he’s more than good enough for her, perfect match.
Tasha Murphy - Tasha is a friend that I’ve bonded with this year, she’s Burkey’s girlfriend and very much a part of our group of friends. She’s easy to get along with and is always up for a laugh, plus she’s fun to have banter with! But you can also talk to her about anything and rely on her for most things and usually when we go to a party or sit off I usually end up speaking to her the most out of everyone. Even though she usually steals my drink or take a few drops of it without persmission and just pulls a random face! But anyway Tasha’s a very good friend and is very happy with Burkey which makes everything full circle I suppose, now I know I wind her up all the time but hopefully she knows that I’m very glad she’s my friend and is a big part of the “Thundercats”.
Joe Bartley - First thing that comes to mind when thinking about Bartley is that he’s the evil bastard that stole my subway the first time I met him and ran off with it! But it was a year and a half ago, so I guess it’s just a good memory now. Anyway I’ve known Bartley since then but only really became friends with him since the start of the year, he’s definitely one of my very good friends. I see him quite a lot and we always have good banter and talks when we’re out somewhere. Although we do argue about something like everytime we go out but we’re the type of people that can argue and then be fine five minutes after it. Bartley’s a good guy, some people misjudge him which isn’t really fair but I know that his heart is in the right place and plus he’s very charming which makes it hard not to like him! I’m glad you’re my friend Bartley and I love you babez.
Chris Disley - Well I’ve known Disley for two years through our college class and I absolutely despised him at first, he thought the same about me but oh well! In second year though we bonded as friends and since then it’s been great basically, he’s the kind of friend that I can talk to about probably anything, I don’t see him as much as I’d like to but luckily we still talk like nearly everyday. And I’m grateful that he puts up with me because I probably annoy him more than I do with most other people, but when I’m feeling down he always motivates me with a speech to make me feel better. We fought are way through three ruthless weeks in college to get the grades we wanted to, we struggled but got there in the end! He’s always got good ideas for projects that he wants to do and luckily for me, he trusts me enough to share them with me even though he doesn’t tell most people. And plus we have amazing banter and classic battles on bear mountain. He’s definitely one of my closest friends and I’m glad he’s there for me, love ya Dizzers.
Rachael Demelweek - The longest friend I’ve ever had, I’ve known her all my life. We’ve been close for like five years or something around that now, I trust her with absolutely everything and she’s definitely one of the closest I’ve ever had. We’ve got loads of memories throughout our lives that are all good, she’s like family to me and we’ve never actually argued over anything, not once! Unfortunately I don’t see her as much as I’d like to anymore, but I suppose that’s life and maybe us growing apart as we’re getting older but I guess that’s the way it’s supposed to be and I can’t do anything about that, even if I wanted to.
Rob Dunn - I’ve known Rob for about seven years now, I absolutely hated him in school from year seven to year nine but then Campion closed down and we both went to West Derby. Then for some random reason we just ended up speaking and becoming actual “best friends” until year eleven then we initially fell out and grew apart. We’ve had a lot of good times and bad times but luckily we still keep in contact, we don’t speak that much anymore but when we do we always talk about funny memories and the experience at Castle Greyskull. We haven’t argued in ages which is good and I always like catching up every now and again, it’s for the better that we don’t speak as much otherwise we’d end up arguing again but regardless of all the bad shit, I’m still glad that Rob’s a friend that’s still there.
Jordan Corris - Jord is my favourite person in the world! I’ve known her just like Chris through our college class and like most people I’m friends with, we didn’t get on at first but then I don’t know we just kind of did start to talk and became dead good friends. They’ve been a few times when we’ve had little fall outs when I’ve been a bit petty and childish but I’ve grown up a lot since then and don’t intend on being like that ever again! We always have a laugh when we’re out and have a few jokes, she’s a very fun girl and has a lot of heart, definitely one of my closest friends, but like Chris I don’t see her as much as I’d like to! I absolutely love her to bits though and she knows that.
Then I have my other friends such as: Josh, Sean, Dean, Chris Parkes, Barney, Phil, Stewie, Dave, Stripes, Rachel, Michael, Jake and Sam Cairns! She’s a babe!
Anyway I know I’ve ranted for ages but in the words of Jack Hale: “Fuck you! It’s my blog!”
