2010 flashbacks part1

i just read a blog post on rockstar diaries where she looked back on this year. i don't think i'll have as many photos but it'll be nice to reflect. i've done it in 4 parts so that it's easier to write. i think i'm just a bit of an idiot when it comes to internet stuff. WHY do pictures always appear at the top of your post when you're writing, it's difficult to get them where you want them.

1. January

Spent news years watching fireworks in a garden and drinking apple sours. i had a boyfriend of four months. said boyfriend and i broke up. i wrote exams. proceeded with a weekend of three 18th birthday events. had a blast. sent off my UCAS application for university.

remembering

i was wasting time on facebook, as you do, and i got an invite to join HHPS class of 2005. i was so excited, this is my primary school that i went to, so i joined and almost immediately i was chatting to old school friends. it's amazing how much people can help you remember.
we shared stories about classroom days and it was wonderful to chat to everyone again.
this just confirmed that going home is the right choice... back to where i belong

Mumford And Sons - Awake My Soul

nando's

Nando's originated in south africa. it has portugeuse style chicken and one has opened at bentley bridge just down the road from us and my mom and i went to have memorable night there. it's amazing how many memories a few flavours and decorations can surface.
lovely evening.
didn't take pictures as i think the hosts would be a bit suspicious hehe
