Well would you look at that im writing another entry, welldone me! Ok so Saturday I worked an 8 hour shift 1-9 which was shitastic! Then when I finally finished Martin came to pick me and the sis up and we made a dash for home so I could quickly get changed and pack stuff for the weekend. Martin and I then hit the road and drove all the way to Oxford!
Once we arrived at around 11.30ish pm, I rang my house mate to find out where they were at and so we headed into town which by the way is only a ten minute walk from my new house which is fantastic! This was the entire purpose of the trip though, to come see my new digs and see what im going to need to bring up when I move in next week. I met some of my Uni chums, Tom, Lucy, Bethan, Saskia and was introduced to Bethan's lovely boyfriend Mark who turns out to be a P.E teacher so him and Martin had some good things to chat about seen as Mart's been doing a little bit if teaching himself recently at his new job.
Anyways we proceeded to a bar where Sask works called the Thirst Lodge had come cocktails and a bit of a boogie and headed back to the house. The new house is without a doubt better then last years, the living room is bigger and has bigger sofa's the kitchen is better as it has a nice little brekfast bar, and we actually have a WASHING MACHINE wooohoooo lol even though I HATE washing but we never had one last year. I have a double bed (Y) the walls could do with a paint to be honest but im sure ill be able to cover it up with posters and what not and make it all nice and cosy and "bekified" as I did with my room last year. The house is a great location really, 10 min walk from uni, 10 min walk into town and ten min walk into cowley. Plus all the buses stop at the top of our street so it's perfect really.
Next day we awoke and beth, sask and mark came over. We all then went out for lunch at O'Neils which is an Irish bar in town and do some good cheap food! After some nosh we had a mooch in town and popped into HMV! We had a blast on the new beatles addition rock band which is pretty amazing to be fair. The guitar is brilliant!!! After that little bit of excitement we then headed back to the house. Martin had a little snooze as he had to drive back and Laura Crane arrived with her mountains of stuff so I helped her move in :) it was lovely to see her too! Martin awoke, I said my goodbyes and we made tracks back Telford.
Martin didn't fill up on petrol and we took a wrong turning and were heading towards Worcester! So of course as we were driving along the motorway we broke down. LOL we were stuck there easily nearly two hours before my mom and dad came to the rescue with some more fuel. I really dont know what id do without my parents sometimes, they are simply the best :) to pass the time we played a couple of unsuccessful games of eye spy and the "lorry game" in which we made up lol. We filled up with fuel and made our steady way back with a stop at mcdonalds on the way which was martins repayment of making me sit in a stranded car for two hours lmao!
What made things worse was the fact we had a 20th joint birthday to head to. We were both absolutely shattered but thought the least we could do was show our faces and wish rach and tom happy birthday. So we headed to whispers bar, wellington to meet kat and tom who were already there. We were there 30 mins tops when tom bishton decided to call the party off and head to shrewsbury with some of his friends. I for one was quite shocked at this as this was a JOINT party. Rach was celebrating her birthday too and was happily dancing and enjoying herself when Tom came over ten mins before he left and closed the party to tell her that "their" party was coming to an end. I actually couldn't believe it to be honest, some people had made the effort to come (including me and martin) who had basically gone through hell to get there! And that was it he told the bar staff to close, lights came up, music stopped, and martin and I had barely even touched our drinks we had just purchased. The worst of it all was that Rach was not happy. I felt very sorry her, how embarrasing for someone to just cancel there own party what about the people who had come to celebrate rachel's birthday?? There is only one word for SELFISH. But I guess sadly that's just the way some people are.
So we said our goodbye's to rachel, tom had already left without saying goodbye....obviously. And so me kat mart and tom made our way home. So all in all it was a good weekend despite the let down of the party for rach. As my boyfriend described it Bom let the bomb off on his own party LOL cheesey joke but it lightened the mood :) Ohhhhhhhh and before I finish ive just found out ive got the work placement I wanted at the Severn Theatre in Shrewsbury!! This is for a double module in doing at University as part of my course which is Arts Management, Administration with Performing Arts so im looking forward to starting that and hopefully making contacts who could potentially help me out getting work once I have graduated :) we will see anyways.
