Of girlfriends, old and new

I’ve started getting zits on my forehead again and I don’t quite understand why. Could it be that since I’ve started working out at the Kisahalli gym with Jyri my body has started producing more of some hormone that causes them?

Simo’s back from Ethiopia. We’ve been talking a lot about girls, relationships and break-ups. Simo saw his latest ex (and the first girl to dump him, which is always significant) yesterday. He still has the hots for her but he’s not sure if he wants the old flame to be rekindled.

What’s most interesting to me about Simo seeing Karkki (Karoliina) is that ’s a friend of Milja, whom I spent two thirds of lukio admiring from afar. A chance meeting would be quite welcome, though I doubt anything could come from it. I don’t have any illusions of my flirting-when-it-counts skills, and even so, it’s just too soon.
