Christmas!

Christmas was totally different this year. Y'all remember my sister moving into her new house? Well Joe and she had his and her family over for Christmas! It was great! I wish I took my camera; why didn't I take my camera? I got there and the living room was FULL with presents! A huge pile of them covered the floor! But before I opened any I went to see all of the animals. omg, the bunnies' house is soo cool!!! They have a huge run outside that I could stand-up in, and they have little doors into the garden shed (their home) with a ramp to get to the top floor! It's amazing!! And I'm pretty sure big bunny remembered me!! They're soo cute :-)

Rachel's cat was being such a madam all day, though. It's because Joe's parents brought their dogs over, it was really scared. It was hissing at everyone! I much prefer dogs :-)

After presents we had a HUGE meal! No word of a lie, THREE joints of meat (turkey, gammon, and beef), more roast potatoes than required (WIN!!) ooh, cooked in goose fat, and lots of other food, the table was full! They did such a good job of the food, I'm so proud of my big sis!

We played lots of games in the evening and had another meal then I drove my parents and sister home.


We have this really annoying Christmas decoration that sings a song and moves when you tap it or clap. I think Melve is figuring out that when he squawks really loud he sets it off!

Boxing day was nice, we had my grandparents, Rachel and Joe over for tea. After tea mum started one of her stupid games. Basically it was pass-the-parcel to the sound of our annoying singing Christmas decoration. Each time the song finished, the person holding the parcel was out. We listened to that annoying song SEVEN TIMES! And in the last round my dad and nanny were the only people passing the parcel back and forth to each-other!! It was the funniest thing I've ever seen!! My dad really didn't look amused!! Good work, mum! That game was so rubbish it was hilarious!

ahhhh...

I got lots of lovely presents this year, a new effects pedal for my bass guitar, GTA IV(!), cologne, dvds, cds, red wine, chocolate and fun.

Today my cousins, aunties and uncles are coming over. My cousin is staying for two nights. I'm not sure what I'm going to do for new year's yet, but I hope it will be fun! Speak to you soon, blog! Merry Christmas!

The day I met Sarah Maree...

Check this out, this is so cool, on Friday Speed tells me that our American efriend is coming to visit at the weekend!! I had never met her in real life before! I don't know if you can remember how excited I was on the day I met Anthony Green but basically I was as exited as that AND I got to spend the whole day with her! Let me tell you all about it:

We turn up at the train station and, I couldn't really tell, but I thought it was her using a payphone (with her back to us). We didn't want to disturb her in case it was some random girl, but luckily her mum spotted us and it was her on the phone and we all met! Her mum went off shopping for the day and the rest of us went back to our student house to drink tea (what else!) And then we went on the big Ferris wheel at Winter Wonderland, I've been wanting to do it for three years, now!

And then we went to the big museum, and then we went for an Italian meal at The Bay. We drove her back to the train station to meet her mum, but Speed took about 50 million wrong turns and we got back an hour late..... I would've been so worried if I was her mum waiting for her! But we got there in the end and we said our goodbyes :-(

It was so cool of her to come visit! And she was so lovely! She said we must come to Florida someday, that would be amazing :-)

Oh, by the way, I'm back at home now. This may be the last Christmas I spend at home! I'm kinda getting bored already... too much revision... but I can't wait to see my friends!! And it sounds like lots of fun stuff is coming up, it should be good!

THREE TIMES!

Hello! I'm full-on busy lately, socially! It's well fun. On Friday I went out for a birthday party, we had a meal down the bay in posh clothes:

Ahh, you can't see it in the picture, but I was rockin' my Rudolf tie all night :-)

The night after, I went on another birthday party! First, a house party at my house, then Solus. The theme? Superheroes!

This is the third time I've worn a costume this year! Usually I never get to dress up. So check this out: I made my costume out of black clothes & white electrical tape FOR THE THIRD TIME!! There's no stopping me!! It goes down so well, people can't believe I made it! Everyone should buy some electrical tape, I swear. Maybe my birthday party will be electrical tape themed!

The other day, I was talking to my housemate May, and he told me that, at least twice, he seriously thought I was in pain when I was just singing. Some people just can't hear talent, can they? My dad is always mean about my singing voice, too. And my other housemates. I swear they need their ears testing.

Nah, I joke. But I really enjoy singing to myself!! It's a shame it annoys other people. Sometimes, when I'm in Bristol, I drive really slowly so I can sing more.

Last week I also went to the cinema and went to another house party. Tomorrow night is the art society Christmas meal, Wednesday is our house's Christmas meal, Thursday I'm jammin' and Friday I'm watching a film with my new friend. So busy! But so much fun! I'm excited to go home for Christmas, too!
