Welcome back...

Sorry (again) for my lack of blogness. Been a busy bee since my last post. Went on a mini-break and then hectic college work to complete.
The Mini-Break was amazing. Went to Northern Ireland with 3 of my friends; flew out on the friday night at 9.25pm from London Gatwick and arrived at Belfast Intl at 10.5opm. Good flight if I must say although it was a little late due to take off. Rawr! Was funny on the taxi ride to our hotels haha. Taxi driver was listening to cheesy music on radio. Also sitting in an Irish KFC at midnight is highly amusing, specially if a drunken irishman approaches you in the queue saying something you hardly understand but I did hear the word 'craic' which means good time in Irish (I have Irish relatives)
One word = SQUEAK!
Irritating. The beds in the hostel squeaked every time you moved an inch; horrible! Also being situated next to a pub is highly irritating. Noise non-stop till 2am. Bad times lol. Got used to it though after the first night.
Saturday was good; went on a huuuggggeeeeee wheel which looks like the London Eye but it was called Belfast Wheel. Was funny as it decided to go backwards after 3 go's. Also discovered a great fountain which I call 'Sprinkly things' lol. Also call it 'Squirty thing' either will do, both does the same job. Running through it is fun too, cooled us all down as the temperatures were sky high 26 degrees which if I am correct is 80 sometime farenheit. Hot hot hot!! Oh yeah, also went on a bus tour. Funny bus tour, one of the murals looked like our friend.
Sunday was basically the same as saturday; minus the wheel and bus tour. Visited the town way too early '12pm' nothing was open due to the country being religious so everything opened at 1pm. After the town we went and brought alcohol at tesco. They didn't ID us! WOW! Luckily I am 18 so if they did ask us for ID I would be legal.
Monday was home day. Found it difficult to wake up but eventually got up at 9.45 and had breakfast by 10.3o due to having to check out by 11am. Lugging suitcases round a city is stressful lol. But we decided to go to the airport instead, trolley races in an airport is fun!!

So yeah, thats my weekend summed up. I should stop writing now as I have written loads.
College this week was pointless, hardly done any work due to not needing to do any. So I am going to go now. Someone remind me to post more often, I keep forgetting.
I dunno when my next post will be...could be tomorrow, sunday, monday...maybe next month if I am that forgetful. Which I highly doubt.

Have fun reading all of this
