Over the last few weeks I have been bombarded with exam revision, & I managed to finish ALL of my coursework on time blaugh . I'm glad that's over with... but with the exams not to far away I need to revise.

Also... today my little brother Alan, tried to hang himself... he hasn't managed to get over the death of his & my big brother Neil in March... he cries himself to sleep thinking about him most nights. But after today, I comforted him like I have done almost everyday since Neil's death. He said "You are the best big sis in the world, & I would never trade you in for anyone..." I was really touched by what he said... it was so sweet of him to say such nice things to me, in return I gave him the biggest hug I have ever given anyone 4laugh . We then laughed whilst watching some Family Guy on TV & helped him with more homework. And for the first time since Neil's death, he'd managed to get to sleep without crying. When he was fast asleep, I went into his room & kissed him on the forehead. Hopefully this is the start to his recovery from the grief, we'll have to wait & see... neutral
