It's been a while

As the title of this blog would indicate it's been a while since my last blog, to be fair I have been very busy with college work, coursework, work work and UCAS/uni stuff. (I'm so cool I scare myself sometimes :P) So, at midnight after a busy shift at work I find myself in the mood to do some blogging...I'm pretty sure I'm becoming nocturnal, which is worrying as I have stuff I need to do during the day.


Anyway, life is being pretty damn good to me since I've been absent blog wise. 


I love being able to drive anywhere any time I want...speaking of driving, I got my awesome pink, official driving licence on Friday morning and was quickly off to college (I may have been running late) to wave it at my friends and suggest we did something in the evening. We did do something, I drove them all to Norwich in the dark and the rain so we could go and see 'The Social Network' or 'the film about Facebook'. It was an very, very good film and I am extremely pleased to tell you that on Friday evening as well as all the driving, I filled my car up with fuel AND navigated a multi-storey car park for the first time. Hell yeah!


More goods times ahead I sense. The gig season is back in full swing I am pleased to announce, starting with the NME radar tour a couple of weeks ago. It was awesome, The Joy Formidable were amazing and Chapel Club were cool too. I did not like Flats, I'm going to be blunt and say they were pretty shit. Tomorrow (or should I say today, it is after all Sunday morning...) we're off to see Manic Street Preachers. In Norfolk. In Norwich. At the UEA. :O ...very happy they are venturing into lovely Naaarfolk we do often get missed out on the old tours. Then next week I'm off to see The Charlatans, sweet. If that wasn't enough, also coming up are Klaxons, Athlete and Ellie Goulding. I'm going to start a petrol fund pot in my car because I know that with gigs and a trip to Center Parcs coming up I'm going to need some cash off my friends, otherwise we could end up stranded somewhere and my mum has already told me she's not rescuing us if that happens.


Something else that has happened in my absence for my blog is that I went to work to eat, not waitress. Quite possibly one of the weirdest things I have done. I'm not going to lie, the fact five messy and loud children were present, all of whom had the potential to embarrass me in front of my bosses and people I work with, was quite stressful. But the food more than made up for it, my lunch was delicious. Now I know the food is good, I serve it to people at least twice a week, but looking at it and scrounging the leftovers obviously does not compare to actually sitting down and eating it. Yummy, yummy, yummy. Soup, pork and chocolate fondant, plus petits fours *drools at the memory*. Yes, it was a bit weird and slightly stressful, but it was worth it. Whilst we were there, I was told by my boss that I "scrub up well" ...this I quite liked, it made me laugh. On slightly more vain note, I enjoyed the fact I could show off my curly whirly hair to everyone at work, who normally just see it all tied up...I hate that.


Well I've rambled for a bit, it's late and I'm tired...I best be off
