I recently went to London with the school to see ‘The Women In Black‘. I decided to get changed in the leisure centre and met my mum to eat pizza before 4:20 when I was due to get picked up at the front of the school. Everybody dashed into the bus when the brightly coloured orange Tappins coach arrived. I wasn’t sure who I was going to sit with as my mates already was sat together on the bus so I sat next to this quiet person called Ben.

It was rather busy on the motorway due to roadworks and stuff so I was glad when we reached the bus lanes near and inside London. I still have no idea what a low emission zone is, but there was lots of signs around London saying that area was that.

As the play started at 8pm, everybody walked to Covent Garden to look around the place. It would of seemed that everybody in my group of mates looked to me as the leader which was strange as I had no idea. We wondered to HMV (which was pointless) as they wanted to look at the metal part. *sigh* I did amused myself by finding the rude album covers.

When we got to the theatre, we nearly had the dress circle to ourself apart from a few couples dotted around it. The seating was really cramped so you had to sit on it weirdly as you had no leg room. I found that the first half of the show as a warm up.

During the short break I had a £2.50 choc and mint ice cream which was kindly brought by Harry. I was still eating it whilst the second half of the show started. This part was the main bit and I wouldn’t say it was scary but very jumpy. They just basically just played loud noises when you wernt expecting it! I found some of the show quite funny especially the women in black mask.

The way back was really boring, everybody (including me) was really tried due to the time of day and to be kind I won’t mention who, but somebody got travel sick! The route the Tappins driver used was unnecessarily too long and had lots a traffic.

Got back at round 1am in the morning.

Dangerous sounds alright sometimes

As I went to Swindon yesterday to stock up on cheap chocolate from the Cadbury store. I decided that Oxford would be a better bet to quickly get a different watch before school starts tomorrow.

My sister said she wouldn’t mind coming with me, so I got a lift to the car park for the park and ride. I was abit annoyed when I noticed the park got rasied from 50p to a pound.

We had to dash to get to the bus before it set off. I got in to Oxford around late morning. The first task was get a watch. We looked around clothes shops like Next (too boring watches), Topman (didn’t have any), Gap (yet again, they sell none), then I went into River Island. I saw a watch I wanted there and brought it for about £20. I gave my sister the money in hope she could give me a NUS discount.. They don’t do it, oh well. Read More

I have managed to get that horrible coursework out of the way and I am sure that it will pass now. It came as a shock when I saw that it was Wednesday today, so I had to get out of the way.

I am watching Big Brother as I am speaking, I missed the first half-an-hour of it. I don’t know the people who are in there but it looks like it either going to be boring the hell out of me or I’m going to be up all night watching the live feed.

I went shopping yesterday. I thought I use up the gift cards I received for Xmas and went to WHsmith, HMV, and Virgin Megastore. I brought two Xbox games, a CD and a DVD. I also had a KFC for lunch.

Anyway, I hope youre liking my hand coded new look. I plan to include images in my future posts to make the blog less bland.
