Tres bien!

Yesterday, my dad, my brother, one of my aunts, and I went to France on a day trip! We went quite early on the channel tunnel, it was very quick!

Once we arrived in France, we drove straight to the Au Chan, which is a HUGE supermarket, I have never seen such a big supermaket! Firstly, we stopped off at a little cafe, and I ordered in French, well only my drink!!
My auntie and I took a trolley from outside with her special au chan trolley coin, and started shopping! My favourite section was definitely the cheese, I have never seen so many cheeses in my life! We even got to taste a few of them! I also brought some sausages, big surprise there!!!! YUM!!! My auntie brought many items, including a snowman stocking for my baby second cousin, Eithnie!

Next, we went to Cite Europe in Calais! They were setting up a big snow slide there, where people could slide down!
We stopped off at a french restaurant, and I ate an American burger, with french fries, after much deciding!! It was the nicest burger I have ever tasted, far nicer than English burgers!!
My brother Daniel brought a snow hat, with ears!

At the end of the day, we went on the channel tunnel back home, but it took a while, as a car broke down! My dad was not happy!!

Once home, I had one of my aunite's buns that she brought from the Au Chan, they were delicious! For tea, I had some french bread and cheese, which was scrummy!!!

Sorry for being a groaner!!

My mum has gone to Romania!

Today, at 5.00 this morning, my mum left for heathrow airport to fly off to Romania!!
Everything went smoothly with the flight, but she was extremely nervous, as she has never been away without us before! She is at Romania right now and I am counting the days until she comes home!!

My dad and I have been invited to a meal on sunday, so that will keep him from cooking, although he is a good cook!!

There is a lot of illness around at the moment, hardly anyone was at college yesterday, or today, because of the illness!

Strictly come dancing!

Strictly come dancing was on television the other day and it was excellent! Mark and Karen are my favourites to win, as they dance really well! I feel sorry for Peter Shemichael, as he is so big, but at least he puts in the effort!

The X factor isn't that good this year, because none of them really stand out!

I am counting down the days unitl Christmas now and I am really excited! I love eating Christmas food! My mum is preparing to go to Romania next week with the church and I will miss her!
We are planning to go to London to see the Christmas lights and hopefully get some krispy kreme doughnuts in Harrods!! YUM!!

Today, I have a day off, as it is open day at South Kent College, it only seems like yesterday that I was going to look around the college, time flies by!!

My new blog!!

I've now got a new beta blog, thanks to auntie Rebecca and her friend Carol Ann!! Thank you very much, it needed a new makeover!

Yesterday, Louise came over, or Louise the disease, as my dad would say!! It was very much fun! We went to the outlet centre and I got a new coat from the gap, which is very cosy!
For dinner, we had mini toad in the holes and chips from the fish and chips shop! Profiteroles and hot chocolate sauce was on the menu for dessert!!

Today, there are a lot of firework displays, because it is bonfire night tomorrow! My brother Matthew is having a bonfire party tonight, with hot dogs! We are not going, as he doesn't really want us there! My mum is going to cook hot dogs for dinner tonight instead!! YES!!!!

Tomorrow, my best auntie is coming for dinner!

I was on the bluewater site today and I realised that they are having an ice rink for the winter! I am so excited, because the ice rink at Gillingham is really old and dirty!!

Near death experience!

Today, we quickly went into the bank in town! We parked in Liddels carpark, so we wouldn't have far to walk!! When we were crossing the second road, the traffic lights were well red and the cars had stopped! I was the first person to cross the road and I was just about in the middle of the road, when a car travelling about 60 mph came out of nowhere and broke the red light! If I had walked a couple more steps, he would have hit me!! My parents heart rates were beating wildely and I think everyone at the crossing breathed a huge sigh of relief!! I was very thankful to not have been hit!!

On Tuesday, I went ice skating with my friend Becky, who I have known for years! It was really fun, but not when this person knocked me over on my bottom! I don't think I' m doing very well this week!!

Later on this evening, my dad and I are going to my grandad's house for tea! My auntie Rebecca is going to make an apple crumble! YUMMY!!!Also, it is the X factor and I want Ben to win, because he is from Charing, near Ashford!!

Celebritiy lookalikes!

Yesterday, I went on this website called my heritage to find out which celebrities most resembled me! I was a bit disappointed to find out they were nearly all chinese women, I had never even heard of before!!
My dad looked like Christopher lee and my mum looked like George Bush!! Just to say Louise, I tried Mr Jackson and he loks like Shane from westlife and Tom Cruise!!!!!

What a week!!!

I have had quite a busy week, full of adventures!! Some good, some not so good!!

Monday, I caught the bus in the morning to go to college and it was packed!! I could barely move!!! The bus was late arriving at the station, so I had to run to catch my train! I just managed to get on it and the train started to move!
In the afternoon, we got let out of college at about 4.10 and the train leaves Folkestone at 4.17! I was running down the road, when I realised I had forgotton my bag, so I had to go back to college and collect it! I had to catch the 5.25 train!!

Tuesday, in the afternoon, I thought I had plenty of time to catch the train back to Ashford, as I was 2 minutes early! How wrong was I!!!!
The train was waiting at the station when I arrived, so I quickly pressed the button, so I could be let on!! Their was a man waiting behind the train doors and he wouldn't let me on! I was furious!!! I even shouted, which is quite unlike me!!!

Wednesday, the train was cancelled to Folkestone, so none of the Ashford people could go to college! I had to study at home, which is better, because I am in my own environment!

Congratulations to my cousin Erin and Tim, who have had a baby girl called Eithne! She is superb!! I can't wait to see her in December!!
Well done to my Auntie Rebecca too, who has become a grandma!

My first work placement!

Friday, I was at my first work placement, at a primary school in Ashford! I had a really brilliant time, but it was much harder than it looks!!
I don't think I ever want to become a teacher in the near future!!
I was put with a year 3 class, they were very well behaved, until the teacher went out of the room! It was really scary!! The teacher has promised that she will never leave me alone with the class again!
They had a harvest service at the school, so we got to sing some songs that I haven't sang in a long time!

Today, I was at church, where we all got prayed for! It was really encouraging, and we even got given grapes to eat!!

My cousin Erin's baby is due soon, I am really looking forward to seeing her, because she will be my second cousin! Auntie Rebecca is out in Canada at the moment, they are probably having the baby shower about now!

My father, the hero!

One of my favourite films is called, My father, the hero! It is a brilliant film about a girl and her father who go on hoilday together to the carribean! She pretends that her father is her boyfriend to attract a boy's attention! Anyone who likes romantic, comedies should definitely watch it!!

Yesterday, I was working at the library for 4 hours! I was put on the counter for the whole time, so it was really busy! They even sell coffies at the library now, my auntie Rebecca would really like that!

In the afternoon, we went into Canterbury and I had a cinnamon whirl in Waterstones, yum!!!

On Friday, Louise came round for the evening! We had an excellent time together watching mr Bean the movie! I like it when he blows up the bag of sick and pops it over someone's head!
We even had profiteroles with chocolate sauce!

Assignments.

Yesterday, I had the day off! I get every Thurday off and I have been off today, because our work placements haven't started yet! I am doing my first work placement in a primary school, I was going to do it in my old primary school, but they wouldn't have me!
I can't wait to do a work placement with the elderly, as I have a soft spot for them!!

I have been given my first assignment, which is Physiology! It is fairly difficult, but I am thankful that my dad knows quite a bit to do with the subject!

On Monday, we have to do a Food, hygiene course, where you get a certifacte! I hope you get to taste food!!!

I have started at the library now, it was absolutley brilliant!! I almost gave someone a dvd without the dvd inside the case, but it was still excellent!

Today, I am going to Louise's house, which I am looking forward to! I miss her a lot, as we don't go to the same school now!!

I'm at college.

I have now been at college for three days, I have been enjoying it so far!

The first day, I was very nervous! I almost ran out of the train, because I was so scared! It is much better than school though!

I am there until 5.00 on Monday's and Wednesday's, I get the day off on Thursday's, and I am at a work placement on Friday's!!
We haven't really got started into our course yet, as we have just been getting used to how college is going to be! I am really looking forward to the work placements!

On Tuesday, I went to Bluewater with my Auntie Rebecca, which was excellent!!
We had Krispy Kreme doughnuts first, I had an apple and cinnamon one and an original glazed!!!
My Auntie brought me a pair of new trousers to wear to college, they are extremely comfortable! Thank you for taking me Auntie Rebecca!

Starting college!

The day is almost here, I am about to start college! I am excited, but nervous at the same time!
I am really worried that I will get lost, or have nobody to talk to!!

I start working at the library on Saturday, well I get trained on Saturday! It should be excellent working there, especially as I love books! I am reading a book at the moment called Chasing the Dragon, by Jackie Pullinger, which is brilliant!

Today, is my dad's 50th birthday! On Saturday, we had an open house for him! Lots of people came and brought really good presents!! His main present was a dvd camcorder, which was from a range of different people!

I am looking forward to tomorrow, as I am going shopping in Bluewater with my Auntie Rebecca! I am definitely going to have some delicious Krispy Kreme doughnuts!!

My exam results!

On Thursday, I collected my G.C.S.E results!! I was extremely pleased with what they were!
I got 7 c's and 2 b's! I was especially pleased with what I got in maths, because that has been my hardest subject all the way through school!

I had a brilliant day on Friday, as I went to Louise's house for the day! She had pink put in her hair, but it didn't come out quite right, so she is going back to the hairdresser on Tuesday! We went to the outlet centre, and had Spudulike potatoes, which are just the best!!!

Yesterday, we went to the American diner as a celebration dinner for me! I had a wax works, which is a hot dog topped with American cheese and fried onions!! It was yummy!!!

Holiday of a lifetime!

I have been home 1 day from my holiday, which was the best holiday of my life!!!

There was a bit of trouble on the day we left, because it was the start of the high airport security! We didn't think we would even end up going, as they said many flights were cancelled!! Thankfully, we did end up going!
There was quite a long wait until we got on the aircraft though, and the queues were huge!! We had just over a 3 hour delay, which wasn't too bad!! We even had to take our shoes off, which was rather cheesy!!
At least we didn't have any bags to hold, apart from a clear plastic one!!

The flight was the comfiest one I have ever been on, plus I got a bag of maltesers to eat, which was even better!!!

When we arrived in Mallorca, we got a taxi to Puerto Pollensa! It was about 10.30pm there time when we arrived! The worst bit was getting stuck in the bathroom, as the lock didn't work!!!! It was scary!!! I was stuck in there for about 15 minutes, before I finally managed to unlock the door!

It was beautiful where we stayed, with wonderful views! I even went paddling in the Mediterranean!!!

We ate in many super restaurants, I even had sausages in a few of them, which were delicious!! The chicken burger that I ate was also brilliant!!

On Sunday, we went to a market in Pollensa, which was packed full of people, it was good, but not as good as the one in Puerto Pollensa on Wednesday!!! I brought a pair of short jeans, but the person selling them wouldn't make the price go down very far! I think that's because she was African!!

Tuesday, we went on a boat to Formentor, which was fantastic! The sea was even warm!! It was rather crowded on the beach, with lots of topless women walking around!!

I had a fantastic holiday, I am definitely going to go back!!!!!!!!

Mallorca!

I am going to Mallorca on Thursday for one week and I can't wait!! I am really excited to eat spanish food and read all I want!!! I even love flying in an aeroplane, especially since I might bump into someone famous at the airport!!!!
The place where we are going is fairly quiet, as it is the North of Mallorca! It is meant to be very hot, so we have brought some water spray to take with us!

Yesterday, my parents and I went to our pastors house for dinner, it was delicious!!! We had one of my favourite desserts too, cheescake!!!

My family and I are getting a dog called Charlie for a week to see how he gets on with us! If he likes us and we like him, he will be coming to live with us forever!!

I can't wait until December, because my cousin Erin will be coming over again! This time she will be bringing her baby girl though!! My Auntie Rebecca is going to be doing an early Christmas for her!

Pictures from my day at London!




These are a few of my pictures that I took in London!

Tuesday, August 01, 2006

What an experience!!!!!

Yesterday, I had probably one of the most adventurest days of my entire life!!! It was brilliant!!!

I went to London with my Auntie Rebecca and my cousin Erin, who is pregnant! It was definitely a day to remember!!
I got on the train at 9.15 am, which was a slow train to London! My auntie and my cousin were already on the train, as they got on at Folkestone! It actually was a good train ride up!

When we arrived, we got off the train and jumped on the underground to mueseum lane! I think I was the most excited I have ever been!!! It was quite warm, but luckily Auntie Rebecca had her water spray, so we could cool down!!
Firstly, we went to the Natural History Mueseum, it was super!! We spent quite a while in there, but we only did two sections! I really enjoyed the Human biology section, because there were lots of things to press! They also had visual illusions there, and these funny mirrors which made our bodies look weird!! They were really funny!
They also had big dinosaurs there, which looked frightening!!

After we had finished at the mueseum, we went into the picnic area and ate! I had one of Auntie Rebecca's leerdammer cheese sandwiches with ham, yummy!!!!!! Auntie Rebecca also brought a chocolate brownie, which she cut into thirds!

Next, we decided we would go to the Science museum, which was fandabadozzie!!! I especially enjoyed the simulator ride, which my auntie and I went on!! We felt as though we were really in a rollacoaster!! My auntie thought she was going to die, it was really fun!!! My cousin Erin couldn't come on though, as it might harm the baby!
We didn't spend long in the science museum, because we were going to Harrods - wow!!!!!

At Harrods, we stood outside and had our pictures taken, I had never been to Harrods before, so it was a real adventure to me!! It was huge!!!!!!!
The food department is just wonderful, the cheese counter is about the same size as my living room!!
We looked at the baby department and the food department!!! I brought a tin of Harrods shortbread for my mum and dad!!
I spotted a man with a bag of Krispy Kreme doughnuts, so I got very excited!!! My Auntie Rebecca brought 24 doughnuts!!!!! I LOVE HARRODS!!!!!!!
We ate some of the doughnuts outside Harrods!!!

We then went back on the tube to go to Buckingham palace, well outside it!!! It is such a beautiful palace!!! We sat on the queen Victoria fountain outside Buckingham Palace, soaking everything in to our brains!!

At about 5.00, Auntie Rebecca suggested we should go and find somewhere to eat, as it wouldn't be too busy! We ate at the Hard Rock Cafe, which is the only one in London!
I had chicken toujons, with fries!!! They were delicious!!

Last stop of the day was Hamleys toy store! Auntie Rebecca wanted to buy a Rupert the bear or Noddy, but she was very dissappointed!!! I brought a travel pictionary to play on holiday!!!

The last bit of our day was probably the best of all!!!! We went on a bike with seats at the back!! It was absolutley excellent!!!!! We were all squashed in like sardines, bumping up and down, thinking we were going to crash!!!

I had a really exciting day, which was out of this world!!!! Thank you for taking me Erin and Auntie Rebecca!!

My cousin Erin

Today my cousin Erin is arriving in England all the way from Canada! I am really looking forward to seeing her, as I haven't seen her for ages!

I will be really excited two weeks from now, because I am going on holiday to Mallorca (Majorca) for 1 week!! It will be a good time to relax and have fun playing games!!
The sea is so clear out there, that you can actually see the fish swimming!

I watched Love Actually the other day, which my wonderful Auntie Rebecca lent to me!! It was excellent, and it made me smile, but not on the nude scenes!!!

We might be getting a small dog called Charlie! A man from our church is going to bible college for a year, so he wants someone to take care of his dog forever!
