I woke up atiny bit earlier that morning as we found that we didn’t allow enough time last morning to get up. However it took me to have a shower first again to encourage Adam and Sam to get up. Breakfast was more easy as I knew the ranks of it all now. I had orange juice plenty of times and I was drinking it just I after I poured it from the machine. The glasses was really small though. I had my useal of hot chocolate and bread rolls aswell.

I went around the park with slightly different people and started in the studio park for a change. I started on Aerosmith and went on it like five times after each other. Each time moving slightly more to the front of it. It much more better at the front of it. I worn my glasses this time as James told me that you could and was strange how you didn’t loose or break your glasses on it.

I was feeling really ill at lunchtime and just wanted a drink but Sam encouraged me to have a meal. At first he thought I didn’t have the money and offered to pay which I thought was nice of him. However I said I just didn’t feel good and paid for it myself.

I had my group photo shoot at 2pm and the group found me and Jessica. We ended up going on this ride where you drive a lawnmower car around a fixed track. I had a faster car than the car in front of me which was annoying as I wanted to go flat out.

At the end of the day I managed to lose both of the group and panicked catching the bus to the hotel. I met up with some people I knew there though. After doing this quiz and the photo shoots outside, we hanged about waiting for the bus. I was on the floor facing the other way and when I dashed for it, I managed to damage my neck and back. I didn’t feel the pain at the time.

At the station, it took ages for check in to open. I was the first person in to it though but ended up having to line my bag up and waiting for a sniffer dog to smell all the bags. This meant that everyone else in the trip went on and I was stuck there till the dog was happy.

The jounary back home is when I noticed I injuryed myself when I sat in my train seat. I couldn’t be as social as I wanted to be as I couldn’t move very much. I went to the cafe though as standing up felt better. I had the last chocolate brownie, a bottle of water and a hot choccie. I loved that brownie when I ate it.

The coach was waiting for us within the Eurostar station and jounary to the college was alright. My mom was already at the college when I got there and got home quickly thankfully.

Everyone alarms in the room went off at 8am like planned and I even programmed the hotel phone to wake us up. I had the shower first then Adam managed to steal it before Sam. Sam had to rush as he only had 5 mins to shower and get out to the meeting point. I was one of the first to walk to the breakfast place and it was alright. I had acouple of bread rolls and lots of hot chocolate. I wanted more but couldn’t be arsed.

Found the group I went around yesterday and catched the bus. I can’t be bothered to type about the rides but I had a good day in the parks. (I will add more at a later point) I had lunch in the park and had a nugget meal, notice how it doesn’t mention chicken. Well it defo didn’t taste like chicken. I enjoyed it though..

In the late afternoon, people gathered into my room and began pissing about. I get all worried when people behave like that as part of my autism I think and didn’t want to pay if they broke the fan. Then the subject of shaving James eyebrowns came up and at first they wanted to do it on the top bunk of the bed in the room. I made it clear to do it somewhere else so they moved into next door which was linked.

I was getting worried when they joked about doing it to someone else and I felt unsafe from the point they said that. When I saw that they did one of James eye browns and was what I thought forcing into it, I panicked and told one of the tutors about it. They was pissed that I dubbed them in and had ago at me. I’m a honest person and I don’t make up stuff for whatever the reason. So when Beci asked me what I was worried about, it just flowed out of my month.

I went to my room and secretly cried to myself. I wanted to just go to sleep but ended up slapping water over my face to try to hide the fact I was upset and went with the group to the bus feeling awkward what happened. When I arrived in the village I saw my proper mates Bradley, Tiffany, and Kay and they asked if I wanted to go back to the hotel with them as they sensed that I wasn’t happy. I ended not having dinner and snacking on Crisps and Coke.

I watched Disney channel in their room whilst we stayed up for the late meeting time. When everyone was late for this meeting, they was drunk. Kiraon kept telling everyone that ‘Big men have big willies’ and somebody kept asking me if I liked their hat. It was funny though.

It took ages for me to get to sleep as everyone in my room and the linking one was hyped up from the night out in the bar. This really pissed me off and Sam sensed that I wanted to sleep. He was great as he kept hinting to James to go back to his room. But still, they all mucked about till like 2am.

Panto joy!

This is my first post of 2009 and I’ve been meaning to post since NYE but didn’t get around to it. I got invited go to this year panto by my parents and I thought why not. I haven’t been to see a panto for awhile but the offer of having a Pizza Express before hand and be able to go to use my Topman gift card was too tempting to refuse.

After park and riding things up, I went straight to Topman and tried on their hats. It seems quite social place to hang in the late afternoon as it was busy but strangers was talking with each other. Rather strange and then once I picked the stunning hat I wanted, the person at the kiosk I seemed to know from shopping there before. Topman is one of my dream student jobs I have in mind. Maybe once I can drive?

Pizza Express was delicious as it always is. This time I had a desert there which is unusual which was a chocolate fudge cake with ice cream. This mix well with each other and I think it one of the many good combinations you can have for a desert. Next stop.. the playhouse!

After collecting the tickets, we all had a drink at the rather busy bar before finding our seat. Sleeping Beauty was enjoyable and it finished a good night out with my parents. I was dreading abit beforehand but glad I stuck it out. The day after tomorrow I have my last day of my Christmas break off and then its the delights of college. I’m guessing it will be a long day in the house on my own. Oh well, I have the Wii and Messenger I suppose.

The pains of stiring chocolate

Chocolatey goodnessWith my sister being back and all we decided to make some chocolate cake. It seems to turned into a traditional thing we do every christmas now. The night before I headed to Sainsburys (always nice to change supermarkets once in a while) and whilst I was there shoved the needed things like cream and chocolate into the basket. You can find how to bake it here.

I offered to melt the chocolate as I liked doing it before when I did them chocolate cornflake cake things and rather enjoyed it. I didn’t know how long it would take to melt this amount of chocolate and how I had to stir flour etc manually with a woodern spoon. Gripping it for that long cains belive me.

All this hard labour paid off when I smelt it baking, it was lovely. I’m looking forward for the eating of the cake tomorrow when it all set. Its going to be good!
