Day 357 - I Love My Friends!

Today was the day that we all exchanged presents!! I had a GREAT night! We only opened some of them, but some of mine included a NERF gun (woooooo!!), a "My First Christmas 2010" teddy bear (LOL) and a really pretty Argento necklace... my friends are too good to me. From what they opened in front of me, my friends seemed to really like what I got them! I just hope they'll like the rest of them :) Patrick certainly seemed to like his Converse ^ :)

We won't see each other until after Christmas now, so it was a great hang out session!! Love you guys!

Day 355 - GIRATTIUS!

School was back on today, (I feel responsible :P) but there was hardly anyone there! However, Leahy was, and he gave me part of my Christmas present! Behold... GIRATTIUS!Yes, that is a toy giraffe with two extra legs (he had three but one fell off) and a wizards hat. He is amazing!! He's a magic giraffe octopus! You may wonder why I am so delighted by this. Welll... back in the day (like early November) Leahy and I were bored in private study, so we drew this collectively -
As you can see in the top right corner there is a magic giraffe octopus! Apparently I offhandedly remarked that I wanted one for Christmas, and he said he would get me one. He lived up to his word!! :D As far as first Christmas presents of the year go... this one WINS.

Day 350 - Shappin'!!

Accidental abstract photo for picture of the day - because I'm lazy *cough* I mean artistic and creative. Today I was shopping in Belfast with me three best friends!! Mainly for eachother... so it was awkward trying not to see what everyone else had bought for you haha! In fact, Michelle ended up taking my bag home instead of hers, and I have hers, so I have potentially MY presents in my room!! So tempted to look... but I won't. But it was a good day, I'm excited for exchanging these presents.

The snow's coming back thick and fast... it had died down for a couple of days, and now it's crazy heavy!! I was worried we weren't gonna be able to get home!

Day 346 - Snow Is Fallin'...

Is this snow ever going away? Hmm, it certainly doesn't look like it! The X Factor final was tonight! I was at Mich's house to watch it and there was a lot of screaming involved... I don't know why I get so into it! Those clever X Factor people, they have a way of making it seem like its the most important thing in the world!!

Day 339 - Sledging!!!

Today we went sledding!!!! We had to do some filming for SU in Tollymore, but we also brought along the sledges for the bant. It was awesome! I really like this picture I got Patrick from the back.
The lighting was really good, so I was able to get some pretty good pictures of people coming down the hill on the sledges without the worry of them blurring or anything. I love this one of Michelle and Leahy :)

Clearly I didn't take the above picture of me and Patrick, but I like it so I'm posting it anyway.

Day 333 - Lol At You.

Oh lol at this boy. Yes, Adam, lol at you.

Today he decided he was going to walk from his house to Michelles, which is approximately 15 miles. Thankfully I was able to lift him part way there so he didn't die on the road. If he did die I would be very upset you see! So I ended up also walking a wee bit to Michelle's house, and we just hung out all the evening. It was good bant indeed!! :)

Here are some pictures from the evening of us just chilling and eating waffles and Choco Duo...

Now I was challenged that if I would put a certain photo of me up today as picture of the day, I would receive 500 points and a mystery gift.... so here it is for the internet to see... MY AWKWARD FACE -

BOOM! FIVE HUNDRED POINTS AND A MYSTERY GIFT ARE MINE!!

...oh gosh. :/

Day 316 - Another Reason.

Want to know another reason why my friends are awesome? They surprise me with little gifts... such as this Gary the Snail toy, and the other little blue monster pictured in front of it. It's the little things...

Incase you haven't realised from these recent posts... I love my friends.

Day 315 - POPPADUM!

POPPADUM! I was at the local Indian restaurant tonight with these two lovely fellas, Leahy and Patrick, and the lovely Michelle. This was the only photo I took tonight, so I'm just gonna use it. Haha I had a great night, the restaurant, Spice Fusion, is great, I had Tandoori chicken and it was nom nom nomish!I absolutely love my friends. I love hanging out with them like this... this is the life :)

Also.... it's Remembrance day today. We will remember them.

Day 298 - Spontaneous Best Friend Day!

So today I cycled into Newcastle to pick up a few things and dandered into Michelle's shop for a wee chat, not planning to stay long. I ended up not going home at all and just going back to her house for the bant! It was one of those spontaneous things, ya know? It was a lot of fun, doing absolutely crap all with my best friend! :D Mich practiced drawing cuts on mine and her arms for Halloween. It was pretty funny, often we'd both forget that we had fake cuts, and so would freak out for a split second when we saw each other's bloody, mangled arms! Mich, when I make a horror movie... you're hired as my make up artist. ;)And here's a nice dark scary photo... as a complete contrast to my mood!!

Day 287 - Loling At The Irony Of Life.

I'm feeling a lot less bummed about my eyes. Yeah, its annoying that I can't wear lenses for the next two weeks (and possibly rest of life), but the irony is now hilarious!! Oh my malfunctioning tear ducts!! It means that my world now looks like this - nice and blurry. :PTonight I had a great night. I was out with these three sexy people. My best friends :) We are some pretty darn awesome people. Anyways, we started off chilling in Tollymore, munching on some Chinese takeout, and then we chilled in Newcastle for a while. It was a lot of fun!! :DLove you guys!

Day 280 - I Feel Loved :)

I woke up this morning feeling like crap, so I took the day off school to rest up and try not to throw up. I was resting most of the day, taking it easy but then at about 5pm I heard a bang on my window. I looked up and there were Michelle and Leahy pressing their faces up against my window waving erotically. I freaking love them! They had driven down to bring me a story they had written in private study for me to make me feel better. It was the story of how I had caught the infamous 'Piratitus' and so the other two went on a great adventure to find the cure. I laughed for a long long time reading it!

You know, it's all the random things like this that people do that make them your best friends. :)

Day 279 - Just Forget The World...

If I lay here... If I just lay here.... would you lie with me, and just forget the world?I had an amazing night tonight. After Crosspoint, Mr Leahy here picked me and Michelle up and we drove out to Tollymore. There we went for a walk in the dark, we had done this after our SU meeting on Thursday with Patrick and Vikki also, and it was a lot of fun. I probably should've blogged about that, 'cause it was awesome. Meh, too late now. Anyway, we went for a walk in the dark and it was great, and on the way back we saw a shooting star :) It was brilliant, we all started jumping up and down and screaming simultaneously! Upon arriving back at the car, we plonked ourselves down on the grass and did some stargazing (plural) where we saw another shooting star. More screaming ensued. It was one of those nights that I could have lain there forever. :) I didn't want it to end. I love you two.

Day 276 - SPOON

More cutlery today! Yeah, I'm feeling unoriginal. LOL SPOON.

I remember for our first year art exam we had to draw ourselves in the reflection of a spoon. I remember enjoying it, I wonder where that drawing is, it would be interesting to see it again! Speaking of art, I should probably do some. We got to pick our own themes this year, so I picked karate. Not sure whether I'm regretting that decision or not yet...

So today was one of those days I hate myself for not bringing a camera out everywhere. I went for a walk today with some good friends of mine, and at one point Patrick and I raced to the top of this hill. At the top there was a fantastic sunset and some deer and it would have made an AMAZING photo. For now however, you're gonna have to put up with a spoon. Good day though. I love my best friends :)

Day 270 - Something You Should Know About Me.

Dear best friend(s),

There's something you should know about me. I'm sticking with you. I'm here for you. I don't care if people hate me for it. I don't care if people read this and are like 'ugh'. I don't care. I don't care what people think of me. I'm not leaving any time soon. I've got your back. And I will climb through your window to give you a hug any time you need me. :)

Love you(s).
