How to get a free tea towel

21/09/07

First off I now have pretty much all of me stuff packed up and ready to go. I think all I have left to pack up are me Wii (which I'm leaving till the last minute) and some pots n pans. I gotta have a (short) chat with dave on msn which was cool since I haven't been on msn at the same time as him since he left.

I knew that cloud and me mum were plotting something since whenever cloud rang up me mum would eventually get a hold of the phone and go off someplace else with it.Charlotte had told me that she n Gaz were gonna take me out to oxford or someplace, but it turned out that they were taking me to the oriental Buffet place at the Kassam. They'd got Emzy, Kit kat, Kezzi, Shelley and Liz to come a long as well as Gaz n tom. It was kinda cool to see them again. I spent most of the time talking to Liz, Shelley and cloud. I still totally adore Chinese food. sweet n sour in just the best, along with there duck and pancake thingys of course. I had more of an appetite than I normally do. Probably since I think all I'd eaten up to that point was a pack of me instant noodles and some kinda cereal bar. I ate a pretty much everything on me plate though so I didn't feel bad bout leaving anything. Some of us then had a random time eating jelly with chopsticks. I also got cards from most people which was cool. I also got
*a multi coloured cardboard box
*a dragon box
*some candy sticks
*a student cook book
*5 tea towels and a potato peeler
...oh how my friends love me. lol
After we had an inpromptu (is that even a word??) trip to the bowling alley next door. (Tom throwing the ball backwards and me getting 3 spares followed by 5 gutter balls. lol)
So yeah, over all it was a pretty cool evening so I guess a massive thanx goes to Cloud(and me mum) for organizing it all.

I guess the only downer on today was when I was looking at some of me mums old photo's on the computer and I stumbled across a picture of me grandad. I still know that he's a lot happier where he is now than he was when he was trapped here, but I still can't help missing him. I guess he's the family member that I was most similar to, and I felt as close to him as I used too with me Grannie. I know that he would have been so proud of William (and Joseph) and I really want to make the best of university since it's his money that's mainly funding it and I really want to feel that I would have made him proud of me.
