Prom!!

Hey guys,

How are you guys? In case you're wondering, I'm great! Sorry I haven't posted in ages, I have been so tired! And sorry that my last post was a massive rant! So, last night was our prom and it was ok, well spending time with my friends was amazing and we they were enjoying dancing, a lot. I on the other hand don't dance and feel awkward dancing but that's just me. It could have been better, however we were not allowed to drink while we were there, which, I think, could have lifted the mood a little bit. We had it at a castle on an island off the coast of Guernsey. Slightly odd choice of venue but I wasn't on prom committee so it wasn't my choice. A friend and I actually decided the things that could have made it better.

It would have been better if :
- we were allowed to drink. Now, I'm not much of a drinker (I know my limits) but we thought that the mood could have been lifted if there was alcohol there although some would have definitely drunk too much and could have ruined it but we probably would have drunk until we were merry. :)
- the weather had been nicer. The weather throughout the day wasn't that great, so if it had been nicer we probably would have been happier, as by the time we left it was freezing!
-there wasn't that much wind. Seriously, the wind last night was a mofo, it was really strong and really cold. Especially after it got dark.
- it was at a different venue. As cool as it was having it at castle cornet, if we had had it at another venue we would have been allowed to drink, plus the mood just didn't feel quite right, as castle cornet is now a museum., It felt a bit like, you touch anything, you die!

Other than that it was amazing and I got to talk to someone I hadn't seen for ages, we were chatting for over an hour! Which was good.

Speak to you later :)

Herm trip and vlogging

Hey guys

Yesterday my friend, the pickpocket extraordinaire, and I went to Herm for the day. In case you didn't know, and you probably won't, Herm is a very small island off the coast of Guernsey (where I live) and when I say small I mean it! It would probably take you about an hour and a half to walk around it and it has less than 70 residents, currently.

We arrived at 8:49 am (I've been told specifically) and we left at about quarter to 4, we didn't really do much other than go to the beach, buy too many sweets and eat too much! But it was fun and I'm sure we will definitely be going again. We wanted to hire Kayaks and go kayaking for a bit but the people who hire them out didn't come (probably because it was during the week) so we ended up sitting on the beach and watching these insane people go swimming in the sea. I put my feet in to see what the temperature was like and my feet instantly went numb, then my muscles started to spasm. It was cold.

I also started vlogging yesterday, which was fun and I would have uploaded the vlog (and this post) yesterday, but I was tired and the videos were in a format that windows movie maker doesn't recognise. So, I am currently downloading some software that will change the format from .m2ts to any other file type, great! Other than that I'm ok and I was pretty happy yesterday after we saw seal, which by the way is my new pet and i have decided that when I am older I am going to buy a marine park just so that I can own a pet seal!

Also, on a side note, I would recommend that you guys check out my friends' blogs they are pretty funny and we made a deal so I have to say this. They are:
