The lessons I learned in Ibiza
This is what I learned on holiday in Ibiza:
- I’m never again flying from Stansted…
…and the same goes for flying with Ryanair. - Getting a tan may be bad for the skin…
…but it’s incredibly good for the soul. - My friends are even more fantastic than I realised…
…and my best friend knows me frighteningly well. - A jetski is guaranteed to make you look cool…
…and even falling off one is fun. - Most of the island’s public toilets have run out of soap…
…and the hand dryers are all broken too. - Mixing beer, mojitos, caramel vodka shots and gin is a tremendously bad idea after six months off booze…
…and smoking on top of it doesn’t help the situation. - I never used to get knackered after five minutes of dancing…
…and my stomach never used to wobble either. - The film ‘I, Robot’ in Spanish translates as ‘Yo, Robot’…
…and this makes me laugh like a seal. - Laughing can make you forget you’re hurting…
…even if it’s only for a few seconds. - I learned that saying goodbye always hurts like hell…
…but even more so when it’s your decision. - And that I don’t know what’s worse — only having part of someone…
…or not having them at all. - That sometimes you shouldn’t dare to hope…
…because it can be as destructive as despair. - And when you’re missing the person you love…
…there’s little difference between one mile and a thousand. - That you can run as far as you like from a broken heart…
…but eventually you have to return and try to mend it. - And even though I didn’t want to come back…
…it’s also really nice to be home.



I love how you write it’s so insightful never fails to make me think about things and my life =]
Couldnt help but laugh at number 8 much like a seal as well but then i couldnt help but ponder thoughtfully at the rest as they were so true!
