Reading 09

Hello, I got back from Reading yesterday, I should of blogged but I spent most of my day talking about how good it was, unlike everyone else I got to sleep at about 1am last night, when I heard a lot of people slept their yesterday away, weaklings.

I've got a feeling this blogs gonna contain a lot of errors seeing as I feel like shit still, but oh well. Lets get this party started.

Our journey to Reading was tiring, haha. We went to Chaz' on Wednesday, chilled there playing Nazi Zombies and jamming with the others, didn't end up leaving until past midnight, not sure what time I got home though. When I got back I was looking at the ways to get to Reading, the last train was 03.44, the only one we could make, so we decided to get that one. The bus we needed to get arrived at the bus stop at 01.47, it was like 01.27 when we found out, so Darron left his as soon as I told him, we caught the bus with like a minute to spare. We got the 307 from Enfield Chase to somewhere, then the N279 to Tottenham Court Road, then the N7 to Paddington, we got there around 03.30. We saw some people who were also going to Reading, spoke to them for a bit then went to get tickets, until we saw it said card only... so I asked one of the boys we were talking to if they had their card on them, they said nope, just get on the train, its £18 for a ticket and £20 for a fine, so it doesn't really matter. We took their advice and got on the train. Arriving at 04.30 and no ticket inspectors to give us grief we got a cab to the entrance and started lining up, we were near the front so it was alright. There was a really annoying man shouting stuff related to Lord of the Rings like "I AM LEGOLAS, SON OF BLAH BLAH, DEFENDER OF BLAH BLAH" etc. he wouldn't stop, he did it for ages. They started letting us in around 5.30ish, we got in at about 6. They were checking bags, well, they didn't check mine, they checked Darrons, took his deodorant, and the man spotted some draw in his grinder and said "Go on, man" in his black voice. We then set up camp in Y9 while telling all the others where we were, when we finally settled down Darron realized the bag inspector stole the little bit of draw he found in his grinder, luckily he didn't find the rest he had. Can't remember who arrived at the camp site in what order, but I know Joe Lacey and Jack Marcou were the firsts there (after us of course), then Josh Doherty and his cousins mates came, not sure who else was after, but the following people stayed with us: Beth, Josh, Tom, Ross, Bill, Saleem, Daisy, Laura, Elena, Charlotte, Becca, Sharifa, Jenny, Toby, Nick, Freddie, Kelly, I actually can't remember who else, I've probably forgot some people but oh welllll.

I've got to start building my portfolio for college, I've got an interview for Barnet tomorrow and I've done nothing, so I'm gonna spend the next 3 hours doing stuff.

To be continued...
