Last Day!

Well, the time that is ahead of me is so exciting, filled with new adventures and new challenges and I'm so excited for that.  But... this time is also filled with a lot of goodbyes and endings, which I'm not looking forward to so much.  Friday was my last day of school, which we had been counting down to since september, but then when it got to the day, i didn't want it.  I'm ready to leave a lot of things about school, but it really is a huge step, seven years spent there has suddenly finished and I feel a bit lost to be honest.  It was a really fun day, and most of our year, as well as a couple of staff went out in the evening, which was great.  I just can't believe it's over, school has been the regular thing in my life for the last fourteen years.  Thursday was also my last day at volleyball, which was also sad.  I've met some amazing people over the last few years, and I'm so grateful for that, but i just don't feel ready to leave them, not yet.  The end was inevitable, we'll stay in touch, but it won't be the same.  I guess it's just one of those things that has to happen, September will bring whatever it does and i'll go along with it.  I just wish i had longer.

Next Thursday night there is a fancy dress party I'm going to, for which you have to dress up as something beginning with the letter 'T' for.  I decided that the only option was a teenage mutant ninga turtle, Donatello of course!  So today I went shopping to Primark and bought the majority of my costume, it's so much more fun to make them yourself.  I got a green jumper, green shoes, bright orange tights, a brown belt and a long yellow foam tube as my 'bo staff'.  I added to this some denim shorts which I already have and some purple material to wear as the bandanna and  wrist/leg decoration, the only issue remaining was the shell!  Last night when I was at work I was discussing this with one of the chefs, and he suggested big bubble wrap, so the barman is hopefully getting me some today, so I can paint it green/brown as the shell. I will have to post photos cos I love my costume so much, yay can't wait, and we're going out in town afterwards in fancy dress which will be hilarious!!!

More about this later, because I'm tired and need to sleep!

I went with two mates to see Ross Noble (an English comedian) at Grimsby Auditorium on Sunday night. He is absolutely HILARIOUS, and very interactive with the audience which I appreciate. It was so funny, he took the mick out of Grimsby so much, and we got him talking about Horncastle, because there were 6 of us from school all together. The set was an enormous inflateable version of his head, shoulders and arms behind him which was impressive. We didn't get back till late so was very tired all of yesterday, but it was well worth it. I hope to see him again.

Happy 18th

Today was my best mates 18th Birthday. It's pretty crazy, she is in the same school year as me and yet I am only just 17! I went round there this afternoon/evening for a while to celebrate with her which was fun in a small gathering of people. I hope she had a fun day, yay, First 18th of the year! Happy Birthday Lenny
