This blog is going to be just as wonderful as the last, possibly more so. I would like to inform you all now, after weeks of blogging, that I'm pretty self confident in some ways. Actually I'm just really cocky. Like someone will say 'aw Liz I love you!' and I'll reply 'real qauestion is babe, who does not?' I don't think I'm cocky in a really cocky way, just in a funny cocky way. Or I could just BE a cock and not know it. Ew could you imagine, I would definitely be circumsised.
However this has nothing to do with my blog or what i have be up to of recent.
I have been on my first 4 counties orchestra course! I must admit this was jolly good times all round. I have never played my flute for so long in my life, but i really enjoyed the repotoire that we had, and the company that I kept.
When I say company I mean the one friend i mainly talked to forthe whole 4 days, my good pal HungryHorn. This is mainly cos it was both of our first courses and we had no other firends who didn;t annoy us all the time.
Apart fgrom playing music, the majority of time was spent playng pool. I am shockingly bad at pool. when I was in Australia I played my first pool game and called the cue a racquet and the nets a goal. Hitting the white ball was an achievement.
Myself and HungryHorn had a very enjoyable pool game at one point. Said game consisted of everyone hitting ym cue from behind, hwich at first INFURIATED me, however when i realised that actually my balls were being potted now it became good times. It did end up me call HungryHorn a 'wanker' alot of the time as he is bloody beast at pool and enjoys throwing it in my face when I do something desperately bad. Bad things include me saying 'I can do this, im tossing someone off from behind, im tossing someone off from behind, I'm tossing someone..AND CUM.' Obviously when I say cum im supposed to hit a ball and everyone startes cheering, this never happened. I did hit one boy in the face by acccident once.
After the course we went on our practise Duke of Edinburgh Silver. You know, at the time you think it's horribly traumatic and that you're going to die. And then you get home and realise that it wasn't too bad, and with the right people around you you would get up and do it again.
Here are some wonderful things that happened on our practise DofE:
-One of my friends needing the toilet and complaining about it every 3 seconds saying 'how long till the toilet???' HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW?! being the good friend I am I say 'Just 3 minutes' Half an hour later we arrive at toilets, hehe.
-Thinking we're getting lost and practically going in someones back garden and up vertical (literally) hills with only penut chocs and mars bars to keep morale up.
-One time we were gayily wondering along a winding path wondering what our future held and a runner ran past us saying GET OUT OF THE WA KIDS. And then the bitch turned round and said 'You try running 12 miles when you're sixty! You'll all be fat old bags by the time you're 30!' TRUE STORY! I was in shock, we probably should have used the oppotunity to have a little sit down. Two of my friends then started running after her to try and confront her, which was rather amusing.
-One night my friend woke up crying because her legs were aching so much and I woke up, looked at her and rolled back ove and went to sleep. My teacher was very comforting and said 'go to sleep and we'll sort it out in the morning.'
-On the second day we were literally lost sheep and once we had found ourselves we were walking down into this little illage and many of my friends were asking the question 'how long is it going to be?' Ok, I love my friends, but seriously?! I have a map. I can not look at the map and go 'right well, judging by how fsr away we are from the campsite, the pace we are walking and multiply this by 2.5, it's will be 1 hours, 42 minutes and 3 seconds!!' This ended up in us ignoring our friends and me shouting '4 HOURS' at one point. because then really any time before the 4 hours mark is a bonus.
We also had a teme song which was exciting. It was Eye of the Tiger, me and BabywipesGalore know every word of the chorus! This is an achievement in our lives, and byt the second day the only thing that was keeping us walking.
We didn't stay the second night. It became too wet and we couldn't cook so our teachers were like ;sod this for a laugh we need a drink' and took us home! It was ab fab.
So apart from sitting on my bum watching Once Upon a Time I have not done anything. Apart from going to see Spiderman with my cousin from lincoln, but that doesn't really. It's still pretty lazy.
Well, you may already know, but The Killers are back on track and have a new song out! i think that it's absolutely gorgeous but you can decide for yourselves, love you all
