My Diary 07 - More Adventures! by Emily Harrison
It was late Saturday evening when I got home after returning from my last week of freedom spent at my Grands, and a rather enjoyable week it was too.
I'd only been away a week, but the pile of circulars, letters and flyers that had been pushed through my letterbox, might have told anyone who didn't know otherwise a different story.
The journey home had been exhausting, trundling a suitcase around, even if it was on wheels, my legs and feet ached and I was in desperate need of tea.
I kicked off my trainers, walked into the kitchen and put the kettle on.
What is it about us English and tea? I find coffee a little bitter. Having said that, if I'm out anywhere, I would rather drink a coffee in a restaurant after a meal, than tea. Maybe I just buy the wrong brand or type of coffee for home? Basically, I have a jar here just in case a guest prefers coffee over tea, but for me, it's tea all the way.
And I've bought different teas to try too; Earl Grey, Darjeeling, Herbal, just to see if there was a tea out there that was even more enjoyable than the one my parents always bought. I even had a go at Green tea, but just the smell of that turned me off. It smelt like wet hay, and I can't say the smell of wet hay gets my taste buds dancing. So I think I'll be sticking with Typhoo teabags!
After a couple of gulps, I started to run the water for a bath, I unpacked my suitcase, got out of my clothes and sat down to quickly go through my mail.
The amount of pizza and takeaway flyers was probably the equivalent of a small branch, there's got to be a more eco-friendly way of bombarding us with ways to make us fat. And why is there a flyer for a tree felling and gardening company? I live in a flat; I don't have a garden, or a tree!
Ah, an actual letter, and from my University too. 'Dear Miss Harrison, We are looking forward to seeing you on... blah blah blah, joining instructions... blah blah blah, could you please bring with you.... etc etc etc...'. Well, they're definitely expecting me then, I'll have to take another look at that later.
As a result of my recent 'adventures', life had started to feel incredibly interesting. My mind, and body, had been opened to lots of new experiences, so many recently, that I'd decided to write them all down in a journal on my iPad. These scribblings now make up what you've been reading, that's if you've read my 'adventures' from the start. So while my bath continued to run, I jotted down a few more paragraphs from my week spent at my Grands, while sipping my tea.
With my diary updated, tea drunk, and bath run, I climbed into the tub and lay back. My aching body being soothed by a few drops of my favourite coconut bath oil, mingled in with the water, my mind started to process a lot of thoughts.
I'm not sure about anyone else, but after my recent experiences and 'adventures', the sexual portion of my brain (if there is such a thing) seemed to be working, and be on alert, virtually 24/7. Is that normal do you think?
Ok, well for me recently, and more unusually you may think, it's been to further my experiences with the older generation. I've come to realise that I absolutely love people who are so much older than myself. I'm sure there's some medical term for it somewhere, after all, there seems to be a word for most deviances from what the majority might call 'normal'!
As I lay there, the hot water soothing every inch of my body, a few thoughts started popping into my brain, I.e. 'where do I find an older man?' I wouldn't do anything so obvious as to join a dating agency, what would I say? 'only over 50's need apply'?, and anyway, I like the chance encounter, the unplanned and the unexpected.
And it will, as I've said many times before, only be a certain kind of 'older person' who I notice too. Not the showy, brash, confident type, but the quiet, slightly shy and reticent, gentlemanly type, that's the type of person who gets my interest.
But I'm also quite shy myself, and even though I've become a little more confident recently, I'm still the girl who would prefer to stay in the background. Yes, I have my naughty moments, but they are in secret really. You're reading about them here, but no one else knows about them. I don't ever, and I really do mean EVER, talk about any of this to any of my friends and certainly not my family. To all who know me, I'm still 'little miss innocent', quiet and shy.
But having very early on, discovered masturbation and the wonderful feelings, pleasures and releases that it brings, when I go to bed at night, one hand instinctively goes between my legs and the other onto my titties. And it doesn't take much to get my very sensitive button interested. I just have to touch it with the tip of my finger to get a pleasurable jolt coursing through my body. And it's not just when I go to bed either, I very often have those urges, any time, day or night.
Maybe it's an age thing? I'm 18 and my body just seems to crave and enjoy sexual stimulation of one kind or another. When I'm masturbating, It's like my sexual nerve endings have been exposed and there's that need to excite them even more, they just have to be satisfied.
And, as well as masturbation, another very easy 'rush' of enjoyment for me, can come from what others might expect to be innocent accidents. Some of what's happened recently involve me being seen, being caught, or looked at, in various states of undress. And that's created an excitement for me, being watched or looked at by another person, preferably an 'older' person. Of course, with me being 'little miss innocent', I'm completely oblivious to anything being sexual.
And it's not as though I necessarily want a full-time relationship, some of my thoughts and desires just seem to involve being the object of someone else's fantasy, even if it's just for a few minutes. And as long as it meets all my requirements too, then why not?
Anyway, my mind's wandering a bit, that tends to happen quite a lot when I'm soaking in the tub. So back to what happened next.
After my soak, I had an evening of TV and then to bed for a good night's sleep.
The next morning, being a Sunday, Mr Thomas had rung me to cancel my visit, he was feeling unwell, a tummy bug. So after a brief chat, and wishing him a speedy recovery, with him wishing me well for Monday, I rang one of my school friends and we arranged a Sunday spent together catching up.
And so here we were. It was Monday, it was late September and the weather was a mix of the last days of summer's sun and warmth, together with those smells and sights you only get in early autumn. If there's a colour you can ascribe to autumn smells, I guess it would be 'russet brown'. The trees were just starting to lose their leaves, but it was still just about warm enough to leave the flat without a coat on.
After my morning bath, and once I'd double-checked my paperwork, triple-checked my bag, and then quadruple-checked myself in the mirror, I was out the door and off on the short walk to my University campus.
My University life was starting, and there was a mix of excitement and trepidation. Not only because I was about to meet so many new people, but because it was to be the first step in following my chosen career path.
I guess every 18-year-old goes through these emotions, 'Will I make new friends? Will I fit in? Will I be able to cope with the work? And will it be everything I'd hoped it would be?'
As I arrived, dressed as I was in my black roll-neck sweater, black jeans and my black ankle boots, the first of those questions was answered pretty quickly. Within half an hour I seemed to be amongst the nicest and friendliest of new friends, as we were walked through the preliminaries of University life, as part of our induction, and we all got to know each other.
