I've never felt this way before...with you around me i don't feel it's over now...

Ahh i just got a really old song into my head...S Club 7... "i never had a dream come true, till the day that i found you.." and so on...dearie me...that is not good at all...i better have it long been out of my head by the time i get to St John or else i might irrate some people with my unnecassary singing...

On to the news though. Last Thursday was the formal and i was pretty damn excited all day, also very happy that i was going to get to see Adam after over 2 weeks of not seeing him, which kinda sucked.
I usually get home quite late on Thursdays but i was still prepared for that. The plan was to get up to Ruth's house in Carryduff for 5 ...however that did not quite work out. My mum spent ages chatting, so when i did get home it was after 4:30 or there abouts. I got changed into my normal jeany sort of stuff and then got all my formal "equipment" so to speak in my bag all ready to go. My mother however had other plans and insisted i eat some of her extremely peppery carrot soup...to say the least it was foul...she then told me whilst i forced the disgusting mixture down my throat that she could not bring me up to Carryduff until after she'd dropped Natalie off at work, so i would be there for 5:30...this was still pushing it...
When she left the room i poured the rest of the soup down the sink and then stormed upstairs...apparantly i should've informed my mother of the details, which i do remenber doing, clearly she did not bother to take the time to listen to what i was saying.
Coming close to 5:30 i began to grow panicy and had to do my make up or else i wouldn't have time later...5:30 came and went and still my mother was not home. Growing very frantic and annoyed i began to pace the house, going from room to room frequently looking outside over the field to the corner of the drive way for our car...there was still no sight of her...
Needless to say i was very very angry at this stage too. Finally she came back and i got into the car. We made it up to Ruth's house for 6:00. 6:00!!!!!!!!!!!

I got out of the car and was greeted by Ruthie, Adam, Ian and David, who all looked very nice in their formalware...at this stage i was still in my normal clothes...the taxi was to come at 6:30. -_- I think i remenber Ian saying something like "Great formal outfit"...which i'm sure would've been amusing but i was too fustrated at the time to pay it much attention.
Actually managed to get ready in an extremely short space of time and also put some curls in Ruth's hair...at that stage i had one shoe on and the other off... finally i was all ready and looked fairly presentable. We all went over to Beulah's house and her mum and Joel took pictures, the taxi came soon after.

Arriving at the Hilton we all went upstairs to the bar area and i got introduced to many people. Was slightly intimidating as i knew very little of the people there...remenber a few names too surprisingly...
Adam and i got our photograph done by the photographer dude...he couldn't get Adam's name right, it ended up being O'Hallian...twas very odd...
The dinner was quite nice. The waiter came round and placed our napkins on us...that was a new experience to say the least. :O! i almost forgot to mention!! Adam got me a corsage! :D! Twas extremely pretty, it was a creamy colour and smelt very nice. I've put it on the boiler where it is drying out, so i can keep it. For the dinner we got fruit for starters, like melon and berries...the main course was ok..it was a chicken thing, which was odd and i only had like 2 bites of it as it still had the skin on it and i'm a really picky eater... Desert was great :P, twas poffiteroles covered in lots of chocolate sauce, soo good :) ahh i wish i had some now... :( sniffle...

The music at it was incredibly crap. Stupid steeky beat dance music...enough to make you vomit like...Ian was headbanging to it...twas amusing....also extremely amusing was David dancing (not saying he's a bad dancer or anything cause he wasn't but he was drunk so yea that was funny, have it on video for those who want to see it! :P)
Hmm that was pretty much it...and no james i did not get pissed... -_-... grrr :P

On Saturday i had a nice birthday outing with everyone. Missed the first bus which was incredibly annoying and completely NOT fault at all...had to wait half an hour for the next one, so i walked down to the garage and bought some chocolate to cheer myself up...pretended i was pondering over which magazine to buy as well, when really was reading bits of them to pass the time.
Finally got into town and met up with Adam and Conor and then Ruth. We then went to meet up with Emma L, Tasha and James. The day passed pleasantly enough and even Amy made an appearance with Justyn, for like 5mins but still it was nice to see her out of school.
Emma Cook and Emma Prince came in later on and we got hot chocolate in Clements and then went to Villa Italia for dinner.
It was really nice in there. I got some pizza which i split with Emmaha (Emma P) and Emma C. Adam atttempted to make a speech, which was sweet, however James did one also that was very sweet also and actually pretty impressive. In case i never said thank you for that, here it is "thank you" :P.
I had a really class time of it and i know that i really have a load of amazing friends, all you guys rock and i love you all! :P

over and out!

That was a long, and at some parts, grammatically painful, read.

You are very welcome, but do bear in mind I'm very rarely a nice person...

And congrats again on not getting too pissed =P

Don't talk about the grammar, I think we promised to leave Soraya alone in peace on that aspect...

And I agree with you, we must do it again sometime! :D

As for the formal... I STILL GET TO SEE THE PICTURES FIRST!!!
