Category Best of.., Stoke-on-trent, Ultimate Events

This is the day after Ultimate Events and I’m still feeling the effects of it by having a sore throat and feeling dazed so this is going to be a shortie.

I had to wake up so early at around 5:30am to be able to get up and travel to the meeting point where the mini bus will arrive to pick everybody up. The people I was travelling with mainly was from a baptist youth group thingy and therefore didn’t know many of them. It was okay though as everybody got on.

Live music at UE

We managed to arrive at Alton Towers at a better time than last year due to setting off earlier. The rides that I managed to get on was Air, Nemesis, Congo River Rapids, and the boat River Bank Eye Spy ride which was strangely enjoyable but mainly cause we nearly tipped the boat over with some good farm noises. This was good that I managed this many as normally UE means that the queues are wild. I prefer the new skyride as it been replaced with new carriages.

The live music in the evening was fantastic with the highlights for me being YFriday and certainly Kutless. I liked some of Superchick set but I felt like it was cheesy at times. I did feel bad for them when there was somebody behind me yelling to them to get off. I didn’t go the gym this week but the amount I jumping and hand waving must of made up for this.

So yeah.. good times! :) Cheers everybody again for making the day so fabulous for me and extra thanks for the people running this trip, dropping me off going out of their way. (Y)

Gym Review

I had a gym review today. It was one of the most excusing thing I’ve done in a while. I got weighted which is these strange scales that you have to have bare feet so it can find your body fat. It turns out I have gained five pounds which is going forward to one of my goals I’m committed to. They altered my plan which wears me down much more but it could be also that I was incorrectly doing some of the work outs before today. I’m honoured that my file now has gained a place in a different folder system. Its mean I don’t have to bother putting it in which day I plan to go now and getting told off if I don’t attend that day. :)

One problem I had today is that person I was going to interview this evening has been hospitalised. I hope she gets well and still wants to do the interview or I will be stressed out again as I will have to find another subject to do. It means also that I wasted my efforts this lunchtime walking to the college to pick up the recorder. However I’m not annoyed as I wouldn’t want to be in the situation having to have a bowel transplant.

I’m looking forward to Ultimate Events which is happening in May. For people who don’t know what Ultimate Events is, its a day out at Alton Towers (a theme park) and then a music festival in a large carpark. The thing I love is that even if you don’t listen to Christian music you can still enjoy the whole event. Another thing I like is that I haven’t got a clue who I’m going with apart from David and I think whats his name. Its bad when you forget a name of a person you know of for years.

Tuesday will be something new, going to London with my media folks and being in the audience of Loose Women. Not like you know I’m on it as you never see the audience. You might hear us. Thats one thing I’m on edge about. I wouldn’t put it past some of the people I’m going with to shout something rude out and getting the group kicked out. I’m not that sure if we be let in anyways.

I am quite chuffed with myself today. I woke up before my alarm clock, had a shower that lasted less than the usual 10mins, and to arrive at college early. However I realised how crappy the college is with exams today.

When I arrived to my only lesson at college, my tutor told me I had a exam in a moment which totally shocked and confused me as I wasn’t informed of any exam that was before June. So I went down to check what was happening to be told that I didn’t have one. When I did go upstairs they were sure I had one as it was on their list. After meeting Kev again he went to my tutor to correct her. How unprofessional that was.

The lesson was a drag as I didn’t have much to do. I was bored stiff throughout the lesson but was entertained by helping people out with Photoshop as I understood it enough to.  As soon it was finished, I shot out of the room and dashed to the town centre.

From there I went to my gym after eating a iced bun to boost my energy levels. Felt strange changing at the gym into different clothing as I’m paranoid of the older people as I’m really young compared to everyone else. I couldn’t find my file as I wasn’t there for weeks and it turned out it got put into naughty pile.  I hate how they got a clipart of the devil on the label of the naughty pile.

I feel worn out now though.

One is taking a break

I have travelled up and been in Stoke since Sunday as its half term. Yay!

I supposed to be doing some college work whilst I’m up here but I keep getting distracted by fun things that I can do more easily up here like go shopping or badly doing radio shows. I will live to regret it though when i comes Saturday when I be panicking and rushing work.

The internet in this house is dodgy to say the least, well the wifi is. I went into the control panel but the crappy BT Home Hub is way too simple even in the Advance so I couldn’t do what I wanted to do. Oh well.

I’m writing this blog post on a Mac which is a first. I never been on a modern mac till now and its strange whilst exciting. I’m slowly figuring things out on it and I can see why people are Mac fan boys now. The word press control panel mixes well with the whole Mac look..

I tried to go swimming today however the both times I tired (first alone and second with housemates), they weren’t open. This council sucks at somethings, I slowly love Vale when I’m over here.

I did another gym induction over here so when I visit Stoke I can do gym. Its a good logistic isn’t it. I joined the Keele gym and I’m not use to space as the Abingdon gym uses the most out of the small space it has. This Keele gym also have more modern models of the the equipment. Only fault I have with it is that they lost my form this morning however they let me go in and they found it by the end of the session. Its all good.

Anyway I better get off this Mac before I get addicted to it. I just want to stroke it and admire it. :P
