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.
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.
Lots of stuff happened since I lasted posted on this blog, and I having difficulty shoving it down on this post!
I suppose I start on talking about going to ‘Get ready for work!’ day in Wantage on Thursday. I didn’t benefit from the day at all as most of it was about common sense (ie lying is bad on a application form) or the stuff about body language was taught to me when I did the M.A.G.I.C course, which involved a trip out eating pizza and skating. The other thing annoyed me about the trip was that I missed out getting a lot of important GSCE Art stuff at school which I didn’t realised was getting handed out that day.
I despise call centres which isn’t based in England as it seems that nobody understands each other. I called Talktalk to try and get the phone number I think they nicked from us to BT and they just disconnected the landline. The other thing I loathe is calling up BT which I has been doing the past of couple of days. I been trying to get the broadband they think is working work in real life. After 2 weeks of getting looped around the different departments, I’ve ordered it again!
For some reason, somebody left a Metro on one of bus seats on bus one day. I was bored as the bus didn’t yet reached the bus stop where my mates catch the bus, so I started reading it. I glad I did as I discovered that Dr Fox was in it. So yeah, I will be passing that article over to him as he hasn’t yet seen it!
I don’t think that Myles will be that happy with me when I get back to school. The reason why is that I decided to volunteer to prefect a door in the Main Entrance and wondered off mid break after decided that it was boring.
I got fed up with my hair yesterday and managed to get a haircut for this morning. The amount of hair that went on the floor was amazing. I back to being spiky again which is a good, though its bad that I lost my £10 bet with a mate that I could have long hair.
