Scarf girl.

Whenever I feel a slight bit of emotion, I feel the need to write a blog. Today is my last day of University, it's cold, dull and raining, which seems coincidently fitting. I've been sat staring at my blog homepage for a good ten minutes and I had no idea what to write, but just felt the urge to type.
A good friend of mine then casually suggested that I write about her, and I thought that that wasn't actually that bad an idea. After all - what's a blog without feeling? And what's the point of feelings if they can't be shared?
This friend, we'll call her Scarf Girl, has inspired me many a time, and is a very good friend. This has made me think about what it is that constitutes a good friend. It's common knowledge what we all look for in relationships - laughter, trust, attraction, etc. However, what do we look for in a good friend? Am I a good friend? I know I go to many lengths to listen and try to help my friends – I understand that friendships are all about balance – I try to give as much as I take. I mean, yeah, I could probably make more of an effort sometimes, but I pride myself in always being here for a cuddle.
Scarf Girl never fails to make me laugh - and it's down to her that I have three amazing girls to live with for the next two years of my life - surely, that defines a good friend.
Leaving University tomorrow fills me with dread - what will I do without Scarf Girl? I need her to be a two minute walk away so when any situation arises, I can ponder round for tea and sympathy (literally). I need her nearby to ring me when I’m falling asleep in the day time to wake me up, I need her to practice my Japanese on, I need her to mirror my (badly done) Gavin and Stacey quotes.
I said today to her, actually, that missing something/someone is a funny concept - it's like regretting something. It's a pointless thing to do, but is ironically an emotion that one can't help. Missing someone is not a constructive activity - but it's obviously one of the worst emotions to experience.
Leaving University seems to personify the term ‘you don’t know what you’ve got ‘till it’s gone’, and even though I’ll be getting it back in a few months time, I can’t help but feel as if I might not quite cope.
The truth of the matter is, in this rain and cold weather – I need a scarf...
