I wanted to write a short summary of my week so here we go… On Monday I had a revision day, and that makes it sound like I had a productive working day but actually I just did a few pages of notes and got bored, but I guess I can say I’ve officially started revising now?
On Tuesday I went down to London for the day on my own for an audition (I got there and back successfully without being mugged or getting lost, go me) and it was quite a fun day, it was a good experience at least. I got the letter back today and unfortunately I didn’t get into the course but whatever…
On Wednesday I went to Nottingham, which I’ve been wanting to do for a good few years now. For those of you who don’t know, it’s the hometown of Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, and if you don’t know who they are by now then go and find out before you continue reading. I’m serious. Me and my friend got dropped off at the National Ice Centre and we met up with a twitter friend who is over from New Zealand which was lovely. From there we decided to walk to the TnD estate because why not? I’ve always wanted to visit it and I’m glad I got the opportunity too. However, I do recommend if you’re going to walk 5 miles then don’t wear shoes that hurt because by the end of it your feet will be cut up and walking will prove to be difficult. Anyway we saw all the signs and took pictures and got a couple of strange looks from the people who lived there but we can’t be the only ones to do that… It was worth all the walking anyway, and we had to get the bus back to the rink. We then skated for about an hour before returning home, and I had a really nice time there. I really like Nottingham and I can’t wait to go back!
On Wednesday evening I went to my friends house for her birthday which was on Tuesday and that was fun, we had a joint cake made by two of our friends which is in the collage, and it tasted really good.
On Thursday I went to see Divergent at the cinema which was amazing! I’ve read the books and they’re one of my favourite series and because I love the books so much the movie was a disappointment in places but overall I really enjoyed it and totally recommend. After that I went out for an early birthday meal with my family which was really nice.
Friday was my birthday and I had a really good day, my mum dragged me along to her fitness classes (she’s an instructor) and made me wear a birthday banner and then got everyone to sing happy birthday…not embarrassing at all… After a quick trip to tesco to pick a cake and buy a few other bits, I had some friends over and I don’t really know what we did exactly but we had a good time!
So that brings me to Saturday and I went shopping with my mum which is always amusing, we just end up laughing at the most horrible clothes we can find.
I appreciate this post is mostly personal ranting about my life and I don’t know if you guys like these kind of posts but let me know either way!
