Christmas, College, Cinema

Christmas is 9 days away!!! YAY!!!!

Christmas

I have brought 2 presents so far and have half made 2 others so I think that I might be slightly behind on my Christmas shopping, oops :) I love going through the town high street late at night because all the light's look so pretty but I prefer the old lights that we used to have, the ones that went across the road and were all tinselly and sparkly. 

I think we might have gone overboard on decorations at home this year. I mean they are everywhere on windowsills, lights, the tree, cupboards and even on the shed outside. however when you walk upstairs the only thing relatively christmassy is the light up tree in my brother's room.

College

College has been awesome so far because other than falling behind on my work, I have made some great friends and have gotten to know people that I had misconceptions about. So I have truly learnt not to judge a book by it's cover or a person by the people they hang around with. I have made new friends and lost old friends but then if I've lost them then that means they weren't really very good friends otherwise we'd have stayed in touch. I've learnt more about myself and my friends in the last few months than I ever did in secondary school.

Lessons are a lot more difficult but then I've chosen to do some pretty difficult subjects at A-Level (Maths, Biology and Chemistry) but I'm getting on well with most of my teachers and I understand the majority of the work.

Cinema

Today I went to the cinema with 3 friends to see The Hobbit  which is a brilliant film and I recommend it to anyone even if they haven't read any of the Lord of the Rings books or The Hobbit or seen any of the films of the Lord of the Rings. 

We got to the cinema 10 minutes early so sat in our seats and talked for a bit. When the Les Miserable advert came on one of my friends shouted out 'OMG!!! HELENA BONHAM CARTER!!!!' we all burst out laughing and told him to shush. Then the film started but the lights didn't go out, they eventually did after about 5 minutes. 

There was a really funny bit in the film and everyone laughed but then this lady came over to our group and told us to be quiet even though everyone else was laughing. She said she could hear us from the back of the cinema but she didn't whisper this she shouted it right in my ear because I was at the end of the row. A few minutes later we laughed again and she glared at us but we just ignored her because we weren't going to let her spoil the film for us. 

Anyway when we left at the end of the film there were 2 employees outside the door giving everyone a voucher to see a film of their choice when ever they want because the lights didn't go out so we were pleased about that. I already know that I'm going to use mine to see Les Miserable in January :D

Before we got to the cinema we played the elevator game. Where you have to run to the top floor of the multistory car park and get the lift down. You have to press all the buttons and if the lift stops and people get on you have to get out and run back to the top floor. The aim is to get right to the bottom without stopping. It was really funny as I was wearing heeled trainers and the floor was wet so I nearly fell over 4 times before I gave up and just stayed in the lift.



Have A Good Christmas!!!!!!
