Too many but here goes...
One of my nicest memories is when I was 16, having a sleepover with some friends. End of the GCSEs so lots of parties and things. Anyway, my boyfriend and i were sleeping on a single mattress thing, and he was just staring into my eyes and said 'You are so beautiful'. It was the first time I'd ever heard it where it really meant something. It was just such an innocent time as well, everything was so uncomplicated. Next beautiful moment was when he told me he loved me for the first time... Of course we only went out for about 6 months but it was great...

Another great time was when it finally happened with the guy I'd been in love with secretly for over a year. He was my best friend, and I couldn't tell him. Again I had people round at my house, and we were all watching a film in the front room. I asked the guy if i could go under his arm cos I was stretching out on the sofa, so he put his arm around me. Then as the film went on, I started to stroke his tummy slightly, and I noticed his hand started to move towards mine. I remember it was moving so slowly... My heart was beating so fast, and when our hands finally touched (after about 20 minutes!) , it was like *and excuse the corniness* magic. It was the most wonderful moment I know, and whilst further things happened, nothing quite topped that one moment. At that moment, it really felt like we were the only two people in the world. It's amazing that something just like holding hands can be so intimate and exciting. It turned out he'd liked me for ages as well but had been too scared to do anything about it. It's pretty strange but I still remember that one hand holding moment more than any other experience with boyfriends! It really was magical... I may cry now...

Gigs include Coldplay playing Shiver at V2003, for the end of the festival, then Keane playing Bedshaped as their final song at both gigs I've been to (especially the Islington one last week though, as it was being filmed for Comic Relief, so all this red glitter came down from the ceiling). I was with someone pretty special to me at that last one, so it was good to be able to share the moment...
