It was so weird though, being in a different country and a different culture, after being stuck in Britain for so many years. It was a really beautiful landscape and we stayed in a quite remote part of Portugal in a really cold building, which used to be a monastery (thanks to my dad being an architect).
          I also had my birthday there, which we spent at a spar but wasn’t great as my dad was ill and my brother had really bad eczema.
          And the water tasted really weird up there so it’s good to be back to English water ;D
          
          Oh my god, yes. I find it way harder to respond to a short message than a long message. At least if you receive a long message, you have something to write about in return. What am I supposed to reply to ‘cool’ or ‘yeah’?
          
          Exactly. The human mind and body is something amazing and something that should be preserved. People need to stop putting themselves down and realize what they are truly capable of. We are so much stronger than we think and can achieve so much more if we just believe and try. 
          I get what you mean about it being confusing. Sometimes I look at myself in the mirror and think ‘this is me. I am controlling this person,’ and I feel like I am not myself and I don’t know why ‘I’ am. 
            
          It’s always nice to hear your words, too :). I hope your birthday was a good one, anyway :D
          
          Ugh I love it so much. It just makes you think and is so beautiful and amazing and just perfect <3

You don’t know how many times I have started writing this message and then accidently closed it when I was on another tab. I really need to stop doing that D:
          
          Anyway, hello!
          I’m so so so so so so so so so so (+ another kabillion) sorry for not replying until this late! I said I would try and get better at replying quickly and then… this happened…
          I wish I could use Portugal as an excuse but I was there for the first week of Easter holidays only so I don’t really have any excuse.
          (again, I’m so sorry!)
          
          I agree completely. You’re just so easy to talk to and, although I haven’t even met you, I feel like I can share anything with you. 
          Yeah, I’m glad I did it. I’m not great at coming up with original ideas (and if I do, I never know what to write) so I thought that would be a good thing to start with. And I really enjoyed doing it and I feel I learnt more about myself and my abilities in writing through doing it.
          I did come up with an idea, called ‘His’, which was going to be a horror, action, romance (horacmance?) book but I don’t think I’ll do anything with it. If I do, I will definitely ask you to proof read it first :)
          
          I love metaphors, the ability to take something which would take hours of explaining and turning it into something beautiful which makes the reader think, but understand what you’re trying to say clearly.  It also pits your point across whilst also sounding intelligent haha :D
          
          Haha, I get it. Teen rom-com novels are my guilty pleasure. When you’ve had a long day, I hate reading something too intense or compact (if that makes sense) and I end up curled up in bed with a romance novel. But I do agree that there are way too many boy-girl books on Wattpad and a book doesn’t have to have romance to be good (although hardly any books don’t include romance now).
          
          Yes, Portugal! I had loads of fun up there and it was a great trip. We had to fly there, though, which I was terrified of, but wasn’t too bad. ------
