    My best friend got told she was about to be offered a job in Nelson (little arty city, four hours away) yesterday. I know its a primo opportunity for her and I lay awake for most of the night thinking she should go.

    She got it. Moves away in two weeks.

    Bye Jules.

    We've been best friends for ten years. She's my right arm. I'm gonna miss her heaps.

    I very sad today.

    oh, that's why you were crying?

    maybe you should go with her. is that beyond possible?

    Moonit, I'm so sorry to hear that.

    One of my very good friends from high school went to college about a thousand miles away from me / her home, and I only see her about twice a year. But we still write each other postcards and AIM each other all the time, so I don't miss her nearly as much as I would if we never spoke.

    Seeing as how good of friends you and Jules are, you'll be sure to stay in touch with each other.

    And to restate what Gee asked: any chance you could move to Nelson with her?

    nah, its a pretty, pretty little town - great for long weekends. Darcy is buried there somewhere.

    Theres only really four main centres in NZ, Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin. So if she had gone to Welly or Dorkland I would of gone - theres not too much work in Nelson - at least not till summer when you can fruit pick and stuff, but thats not really my kind of thing.

    At least Nelson will be nice to hang out in at summer!

    4 hours? That's pretty close. If My best friend moves to Ashland, she'll be about 4 hours away. Right now, all my oldest and best friends are a 5-6 hour FLIGHT away.

    Now that can put some distance in a relationship (NPI).

    Well I know that I am pathetic. BUT this is my bestest friend ever. We have been thru so much crap, I can't imagine not being able to ring her up and see her 10 minutes later.

    We go out clubbing every weekend. I've gotten smashed off my tits with half of her workmates. I've hung out with her mumma. I've been out dancing with her sister. Her brother organises my illegal substance supply. I can cry on her shoulder and she will always cheer me up. It will just be wierd not to have her around. She's pretty much the superglue that holds all of our friends together.

    However she has organised free flights back every six weeks for the next year as part of her contract!
