A day has passed and I'm still kinda upset with Mary-Kate, I'd left the cafe soon after she did. I went home and pretty much locked myself in for the evening. I watched 'City of Angels' and cried my eyes out. Then I went to sleep.

Really Sad, huh?

Now a new day has dawned and I'm left with the question... what to do today?

I tried designing some new clothes, but I wasn't in a creative mood.

I tidied the house for an hour. By the end of that the house was sparkling and I was filthy. So I had a nice long soak in the bath, hoping it would relax me a little.

No such luck.

So I set myself down in front of the tv and set to brushing my hair. I was watching some 'Friends' re-run when an ad for hair dye came on.

I glanced from the tv to the strand of hair I was brushing.

Back and forth I glanced then made my decision.

Time for a make over!

I tried talking to Michael about Hannah today. Basically he just said I was overreacting. Right! She's downstairs flirting with him at this very moment! I can't take it! I need to drown out the sound, time for a cd.

I put Mandy Moore on and skipped to my favorite track 'When I talk to you' I then put on the headphones and collapsed onto my beanbag.

Remember me - Feels like Forever - Since the days - When we were friends - Don't understand - All these changes - I'm still the same - No need to pretend - Where'd it go - Do you know - Maybe it just doesn't matter

I let the soothing sound and emotion of the song take over me. And willed myself not to think about Michael. I was especially enjoying the sound of the violen.

Cause when I try to talk to you - I feel like I'm not getting through to you - Where did we go wrong - It's hard to be strong - When I talk - When I talk to you

Don't you just hate it when you try to escape something and everything around you reminds you of it?!?

There were times in the beginning - When you were there when I needed you most - We'd sit and talk about the future - And laugh about us getting old - Do you know - How it feels - I hope that you know that it matters

Speaking of future? Is ours being destroyed?

I want you to know everything that I am - Don't want to know what life would be without you!

That's it!

I turned the cd off before the chorus could even start up again. I need to stop thinking about this! I need to stop thinking about this! I need to stop thinking about this!!!

"We should probably leave within the week" - Isaac declared.

I almost choked on the potato chip I was eating!

How'd it get to this? We've been making the plans for months now. And yes I had a major say in the concert dates, but I guess I just always thought it was forever away. Apparently not..

The first single was being released tomorrow. We'd done the video over the weekend. And the album was being released by the end of the week.

By the looks of things we'd leave before then.

I gulped.

Mary-Kate's gonna loooooooooooove this!
