Right!! on august the 13th me and ~
LunarRose left for summerset by coach. We went on this "survival" skills course. Pretty much all the people there were really nice.. apart from the chavs ((I'll tell you about them later.XD)). I'm glad to say we knew more than the people who were teaching us. >.<. And we could have proper conversations with the specialists about the things they were teaching everyone. so bassicaly we learned some stuff from them and they learned some stuff from us. I happily learned quite a bit of first aid though, wich was good. And i also managed to do this thing with ropes- i'm pretty sure it's called something like TRS in caving terms.. but i can't remember what they called it. well anyway, back to the point, it was fun.^_^.
All in all we did, first aid, bushcraft, ropes, raft building, some kind of hike that tought you how to use a map and on the end of all that we were meant to have a survival challenge that wud test all our skills- *sigh* yerr right.. so after learning all these skills we were sent to 36 acres on woodland to "build" shelters. Basicly they gave you each a tarpoulin to make one out of. so much for learning how to survive in the "wilderness". You wud have all ur meals at this cabin about 5 min away from your camp. There was this man, can't remember his name ((sorry.. )), who owned the 36((aprox)) acres of woodland and he built the cabin with two other people in four months. It was pretty impressive. Anyway, the camp was split in two groups; older and younger. And in the morning Steve or stewart *sigh*, the guy who owns the land, would go to both camps and find the best shelter out of the two. And in the end me and gita ended up winning the best shelter out of the older group cus we though "screw the tarpoulin we're gonna go all natural" and we made our shelter out of wood and fern/bracken. XD. *feels proud*. So in the end of the day we didn't really leanr that much. But we still enjoyed it alot and met loads of nice people. >.<. *has a whole page full of peoples emails but probably won't actually add all of them*...
..Oh right, the chavs ¬¬.. On the third night, i think it was, after the crew went to sleep after nightwatch ((wich lasted until about 12pm)) the chavs wich were at the end of the corridor went nocking on everyones door saying it was 7:15 time to get up. They did that pretty much all night. But i only woke up about 2:30 am to find out what the hell was going on. It sounded like hell had broke loose. So i opened the door to find connor(( a nice guy we met)) sitting down kneeling against his door talking to some people. And then there was like nearly every other kid there was ((there were about 36 alltogeather)) running around screaming hyped on sweets that the 3 chavs stole from the tuc shop in another corridor. About four people were crouded around some doors at the end of the corridor ((mine included)) talking about drugs and alchohol. And they were really bored so the chavs decided to cover the girls toilet seats in shampoo and shower gel. I decided seen as it wud be impossible to get to sleep in this racket i would just sit outside my door talking to connor ((his room was opposit to ours. ((By the way me and my sister shared a room with two other girls; Milly(apologies for spelling it wrong) and Ellie. The evening before gita sed she wud wake them both up on the 7:15 call so they cud have showers before breakfast.)). Anyway the chavs went again knocking on everyonhes doors telling them to wake up. only this time gita actually woke up, heard them, and believed them. So she woke the other two up!! LMFAO!! silly *pause* err... billy.. XD. also before most of th people were up the chavs ((mind you only the chavs. about 4 of them )) went up and down the corridor singing "Ladies, ladies, come to me. Have a shag for f****** free!!" and after singing that a couple of time lil sweet connor sed "Why don't you make them pay you??" so then they went up and down singing "Ladies, ladies, come to me. Have a shag for 50p" *laughs patheticly* chavs for you.. o.O.
By the end of all that pretty much everyone was up ((accept for one room.l I have no idea how they managed it!!!)) by 4:30. And everyone found out that the coffe/hot chocolate machine was free for 5 hours. so they all went balistic from the coffee. But by that hour the four of the girls in my room ((including me)) connor, and this sweet lil boy adam, were just sat/lying down talking quietly until the crew actually woke up!! (( BTW ~
LunarRose and the other two girls in our room made to ((rather pathetic)) attempts to wake up the staff. But the just wouldn't wake up knowihg now that when you shut the door at the end of the corridor where all the kids where sleeping you cudn't hear a thing!!
By the time the staff did actually wake up ((they're normal time about 6:30 am)) all the kids were still running around screaming trying to burn of they're energy. But when they walked in thew corridor all the kids emediatly settled down..
When the staff found out about all the stealing and everything they took away ALL our priveliges like tuc shop ((i never bought anything anyway)) and all our free time had to be spent in our own room rather than talking to other people in their rooms. hmm..
we returned back on saterday the 19th ((i think. o.O)) we spent about 5 hours on coach. plus 30 min in the car to get back to reading from newbury. on the way back my mother told me that our computer blew up.. and all sorts of other stuff broke. and it was hell that week. lol. so we still don't have any computer/internet at home ((i'm on a library computer now)). and i'm not sure weather any of my photography is ok. Not forgetting all the music files that took me months to download. *sigh* we can only hope..
Haha. now i'm going to tell you what we did after we came back.
*laughs evily*
we came back in the evening, so that night doesn't really count. But on sunday i just spent the whole day chilling. Well... attempting to chill while trying to speed up the prosess of /washing/drying all my clothes and trying to pack before monday morning came. Monday morning ((my clothes still damp and not completely washed)) i just shuved them all into a bag had breakfast.. ands then we were of. about 3 hour drive to somewhat the middle of wales for four days and three nights. We arrived in the afternoon and walked around the town center ((well one of them anyway)). hmm.. tyhe room the stayed in was just basically one big room with five beds.. ooh how exciting. >.<. the next day we went horseriding up in the mountains. Havn't done that in about 3 years.. aprox. it was good. but seriously.. my ass hurt.. the day after that we went for a walk.. must have walked at least 9km lol.. i hope.. and we say soe really amazing waterfalls. one wich you could walk under/behind. ~
LunarRose took photo's. so you'll see them on her page.
And the day after that we decided that we quite enjoyed horse riding. And alex wanted to try the canter. so we all went again. this time was even better. I had the most amazing horse ever. XD, okay.. it wasn't the most amazing one.. but he was really easy to handle and had an amazing canter and you could trop easily with him. His name was patches. ^_^..
