Pirates!



Last night was my cousin's 18th Birthday Party and so to celebrate she had a pirate themed birthday party and it was amazing! All my family and all her friend's made such a huge effort with their costumes and it was just so much fun. I LOVE FANCY DRESS :) There was even a friend of a friend's friend who came along who is in fact a real life Jack Sparrow impersonator who is usually hired and goes round clubs and thing's and he was in character the WHOLE night, was pretty freaky but soooo funny!

It was a great last night to have with all my family before I jet off to sunny America tomorrow aghhhksjdhfksjdfh;sdkfhsdfb!!! Cannot actually contain my excitement right now, my belly keeps doing little flips every time I think about it hehe still gotta pack my suitcase and get some good songs on my iPod ready for mine and Shana's road trip across the States whilst i'm there. This time tomorrow i'll be half way there :D

4 days till USA

I don't think i'm scared anymore, the excitement has fully kicked in. I went to get my dollars today and it felt so good holding the cash in my hand. American money is sooo like monopoly money it's really funny. Also got my travel insurance aswel. As much as it pained me to pay £60 for it, I know I need it. I mean I don't wanna have an accident wake up in hospital and find out my parents have had to sell the house to pay for my medical fee's! Eeeeek.
Still got lots of things to buy, few more clothes, toiletries ect. I will pack everything on Sunday have an early night and wake up about 5am get ready and head to the airport to catch my flight at 11.15am. I really hope I get to sit next to someone really friendly on the plane. I don't think I can deal with someone fat and smelly or just plain horrible. I know this probably wont be the case and i'm sure it will be fine whoever i'm sat next to. I just hope there prepared to look after me whilst I have a mini panic attack during take off. I'm not that bad really, once were up and away i'm absolutely fine. It's just taking off and landing that makes me ever so slightly anxious.
I'm so excited to arrive and see Shana's face at the arrivals lounge. I havn't seen her for so long and I know we are going to have the best time. I've just checked the weather for North Carolina and at the moment and the weather is scorching :) It's been nearly 4 years since I last had a proper holiday so this trip has been well overdue.
