Updations



G'morning all!

So, i've been meaning to update and what better time than now? It's 5:30 am and I'm wide awake.

The first thing I wanted to blog was Sunday's antics, but my good friend Mr Chris got there before me, so just refer to his latest post @ http://sucklemons.blogspot.com/. It was
quite the experience :P Nice meeting you both!
Secondly, was my day today.
In the morning I used my tomtom for the first time to find a friend that lived literally 5 minutes away from my house which was pretty pathetic of me. I got introduced to anime movies, which I actually really like now. If you watch them you'll see how amazing the art work is, the soundtrack and general concepts of the stories. Magical stuff :)

Later this evening, met friends and left for central London at around 10pm to go to club Heaven in Charing Cross. I got chatted up by a guy on the train sitting could even get through the entrance. He went through his life story and then asked if I wanted to 'hook up' sometime, to which I replied I have a boyfriend (I don't), he then said that every girl uses that line and
even tried to make me break up with my imaginary boyfriend before he got off for his stop. The bloody cheek of it! Before he jumped off he asked for my name. I said it was Susan xD

We arrived in Leicester Square pretty early so went into Yates and ordered some shots (melon flavour is just strange..) got followed around by those club promoting dudes, and eventually found club Heaven. Security was tight! We had to line up, go through metal detectors, empty our bags (the woman threw away my pack of chewing gum!) and a full body search before we could even get through the entrance.
My best friend J and her girlfriend said that they would buy me and my other friend a shot for every girl we kissed in the club. So up for the challenge like ya do, we agreed. Unfortunately when we got inside it was a total sausage fest. However, the guy that complimented me on my eyes, and I quote 'You have beautiful eyes, like the eye of the tiger' was hillarious :D
There were like hardly any girls compared to the amount of guys there which sucked, especially as we had guys coming onto us all night, but like trying the whole dance behind thing and would not get the message.

We met a group of nice lads and were reunited with a guy from secondary school which was nice. Overall, a good time was had and I'd go again. Being dragged to GAY night next, should be interesting. Monday nights are called Popcorn and is free entrance with a student card which is pretty good. Drinks weren't too expensive either. If it sounds like your sort of thing, check out their site: http://www.heavennightclub-london.com/

Night bus home bickering with Shivy as usual. She's just so easy to wind up :) Then hung out in my car once we got back. Karaoke at 4:30am in the car courtesy of Shivz. Thanks for that! O_O
All in all an awesome night :D Looking forward to trying out some new clubs soon!

Have you got the X-Factor?

Turns out that the sore throat I was complaining about in the previous post turned out to be tonsillitis, great! It's been 6 days without being able to eat/talk properly. However, today I feel a lot better, got a feeling I should be fully recovered by the time the weekend comes (fingers crossed).

This Saturday gone, me and some friends from school met up and went to Hammersmith Appolo to see the X-Factor boot camp, so the last 50 people out of however many thousands that auditioned. I'd requested some tickets online earlier as I can never resist live music :D It was suprisingly good! Saw the judges up close, and saw some brilliant acts including a girl called Despina who was in our year at school, so it was nice to see someone representing :) The audience were all VERY supportive. I mean, people came on forgetting their words and some weren't that good, probably due to nerves and the audience still stood up, clapped and cheered them on which was nice to see.

Apart from the fact we were waiting in the rain for over 2 hours, and with me not feeling 100% and not being able to sing along, the evening was very enjoyable and I made friends with the guy that was sitting next to me. I admire everyone that had the guts to go up on stage and sing. Auditioning is one thing I have to do before I die, for definite. Just for the experience. Life's all about trying different/new things out of your comfort zone and letting go once in a while.

It was great to see the school lot again, missed you crazy people!
So yeah, that's all I have to report for today.. more soon :)
