Summer Time!

So, I know what you guys are thinking- "Where the HELL have you been?" And the answer would very much be working. All day, 6 days a week and, some weeks, 52 hours. Due to this frightfull development I didn't feel I should inflict a painfully boring blog on you very often because I would have absolutly nothing to write. "Why are you here now?" I hear you cry. I thought i'd sum up my summer in one blog. So here we are.

The Nights out

There hasn't been nearly as many as I would like and this will probably mean Septemeber I'm going to go crazy back in Cardiff. But there was Reflex with Emma, Faye, Mel & Christopher which was alot of fun.



And then there was Becky's Birthday night out in Dogma. I's never been before but I love the film so I thought I'd give it a try. It was pretty awesome, even if it did leave Sophie, Emily and myself last on the dancefloor dancing like lunatics to ward off the surrounding boys.



Lastly is Mels Birthday at Walkabout, a place I hadn't been since last Birthday which was very weird! I loved getting her in for free and doing Jagerbombs with Emma at the bar. I didn't love so much the price of drinks on a Saturday night but it was well worth it for the music and convincing the DJ to play OutKast 'Hey ya' for Mel.



The People

This summer in some ways has been a large eye opener for who my real friends are- they are the people at the same maturity level as me. In some ways this summer has rekindled friendships, such as with Caz. In some ways it has ended friendships as well. Which I'm sad about but I guess it happens. We all grow apart. I still have Louise as a friend- I was best friends with her in year 2 and today we are going Birthday dress shopping. I love that she will be somebody at my wedding who can say she has known we almost all my life and ISN'T related to me.

I haven't gotten to see the girls as often as I would like but I know we have no problems there. When we do get together we have so much fun- we all just slip back into the routine of being friends like we'll never forget it, no matter what university we all go to.

I have missed alot of my uni friends though. In alot of ways it's easier at university because there are less commitments and so we can be more childish whereas at home I have to work. All. The. Time. Still, even some of them are coming all the way to the mean streets of Bracknell to celebrate my birthday with me which I absolutly ADORE <3

The Family

So, I did kind of tell my brother Christopher that I don't belong here and in alot of ways that is true. Apart from them, this Summer has made me think I don't have alot keeping me here. Everybody has links everywhere else and I think I'm going to need to do that when I finish uni. But still, I bloody love my family. I love my late night pointless life chats with Christopher, mine and Andrews 'White Collar'/ IMDB link-Johney-Depp-to-Penn-Badgely-in-5-people game. I even like my arguments with Debs cause it feels like we're sisters- we are bickering one minute and the next indulging in some Ice cream and 'Americas next top model.' And Emma is possibly one of the nicest people I have ever met. I love that she has gotten me a birthday present that is so heavy it hurts her arms to carry.

The Films

I haven't seen nearly as many as I would have liked this summer but I did manage to see the big ones. I'm gonna do the usual 160 character reviews:

Inception: Fantastic cast. Brilliant storyline. Wonderfully irritating ending. Made me think and cry- rarely both happens in 1 film. Film of the year.

Toy Story 3: Not the best of the 3 but still adorable. Loved the scary baby/monkey. Yes, I wept a bit at the ending. Spanish Buzz/sausage potato head=LOL

I don't have much more of the Summer to go but expect another blog next week about my Birthday which, just FYI, is in 3 DAYSS! xoxo
