Party pop!

Hey! Just on my way home from good hang outs with Hayley Conners Connelly at the Kerrang Tour, that pic is of the crowd mosh pit to The Blackouts screamo song! Yes!

Went for a cheeky starbucks with Neil and Liena first, some kids got all starstruck about them being in the Lock and Keys which was super cute!

Also saw quite alot of good faces there actually, Phil, Benji, Bob (its his bday today), Stefan, Katie P (who's doing the tour blog for Kerrang and looked knackered ) pretty good spots considering there we 2,500 16 and unders packed in there! So glad Hayleys important enough to have aaa so I didn't have to sweat to death!

Might was some always sunny now! INTERVENTION, such a good episode! xx

Toronto Dance Party!

I was super duper sad to not be able to be with you guys on Thursday but like blood and fatty build-ups, you're always in my heart! You'll be very excited to know that I have finally made some Canadian friends!!! Kelly came out with me last night to an event called Smithfits on Queen Street West, it was absolutely bloody brilliant! We met a girl called Kristina there who Michael Cockerill had told me to be friends with, and oh my god, she's AMAZING! She was a little tipsy when we got there but by the end of the night she was our new best friend, we love her to bits! She also introduced us to some of her friends including a guy called Zander, who pointed to my beer and said 'sea it away', I told him there was no chance unless he was going to race me and I absolutely beat his ass. YEAH MAN! YOU CAN TAKE THE GIRL OUT OF YORKSHIRE...

I also made a new boyfriend on the dancefloor while Kelly was in the toilet and the only way I could get away from him was to say 'er...yeah...just need to go check on my friend...' and scurry off, unfortunately she was stood right in front of me at the time but I didn't let that stop me. Then we did some Jager and I got drunk. Thanks Jager! Oh I also discovered that there were some black and white leopard print chairs by the edge of the room so I had hours of fun (well, a minute or so) sitting on them in my black and white leopard print dress and wondering if anyone could see me, but I think they could. I blame the owl earrings. It's always the owl bloody earrings!

Kelly also taught me about 'sharking', which sounds like a weird move that you'd normally confine to the bedroom with a consenting and tolerant partner but it was actually the act of making a 'fin' on your head with one hand whilst making a 'swimming' motion with the other hand in the direction of an attractive male. You'll see a fine example of sharking right at the top of this blog. Isn't it beautiful! There was definitely some potential for a spot of sharking last night, but we all know I'm more of a dolphin than a shark. Or maybe a walrus...or a lol-rus? Either way it has now been decided that a boy's attractiveness can be graded according to the number of 'fins' it elicits from us - one fin on the head is a cute boy, two fins (head and back) is a hot boy, and three fins (head, back, leg raised behind us) is an absolute god damn mega babe, you know, the kind you'd probably put on a calendar of 'hot boys' if you were at all that way inclined...ahem.

Anyway the night ended with Kelly and I trying to find a taxi in minus 25 temperatures whilst wearing less clothes than we've even been wearing in England, and then buying an obscene amount of chocolate from the vending machine and sitting downstairs with a cup of tea with the Australian who had sex with our roommate on Tuesday night talking about the encounter itself (far, far FAR too much information) and him being incredibly racist about certain racial groups much to our horror. Yep, it's true what they say about Australians, and this was one that had been travelling around the world for the past nine months and he was still using the 'W' word. It's like Tara said today - 'For some people, travelling doesn't expand their minds, only the length of their conversations'...I like to think that won't apply to me though.

Anyway, racist man-slags aside, last night was chuffing brilliant, and it's another thing on the list of things I have to take you to when you get here! :)

I love-ah you-ah! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Its Thursday!!

...Which obviously means hang out at Lienas with the girls for a few hours until band practise finishes and the boys invade!

Subjects of the evening include;
- Should Beefy trim his beard?
- New iPad envy
- Michelle's vegas wedding hopes
- Worlds best crisps
- Why we still live in Leeds!

Miss you terribly!

------------------

So I arrived...

and I miss you Helen but I love having so much to tell you!

I should do an update really...just to make sure I didn't forget to tell you anything! But rather than a long monologue about everything I've done so far, I'm going to make two lists, because I love lists and people get bored easily. So here it is...

*AWESOME*
- How lovely, clean and pretty Toronto is...
-...and how easy it is to get lost (in a good way)
- Having full access to Peanut Butter M&M's, Crunchy Cheetos and Mountain Dew again
- Tim Horton's...though I'm yet to try the hot chocolate
- The fact that Canadians say they don't say 'oot' and 'aboot' but they most definitely DO
- The dude in the Wireless Wave phone shop...not because he was hot or anything, he was just awesome and I suspect he would have sold his limbs for us if we'd asked. Oh I love being English...
- 'Oh my gosh I love your accent'
- 'Hey I love your hair'...4658674 times a day
- Hockey game this Saturday! GO MARLIES!
- 'Hey I like your hat. And your scarf.' *From a dude who I walked past in the city hall* '...Oh, not to mention your skirt'
- The woman in the TD bank who couldn't stop telling me I was beautiful... coughlesbiancough
- Yonge Street...just Yonge Street
- The horrendous Canadian souvenirs...slashed-front shirt anyone?
- The black squirrels! They're everywhere!
- The boy who works for Rogers in the Eaton Centre...gfjjfdbsgfdgkfdjbgjfdrehrjdhfjdb

*AWFUL*
- Getting lost for two hours before I even got to my hostel and then some dude falling off his balcony onto the street and knocking himself out unconscious RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME
- RETARDED CANADIAN PHONE CONTRACTS
- Not having facebook on my phone anymore...I am lame
- WHY IS IT SO COLD, WHY IS MY FOREHEAD COLD, WHY ARE MY ARMPITS COLD, WHY IS MY COLON COLD?
- Sharing a hostel room with someone who thinks it's socially acceptable to get jiggy in the middle of the night when you're trying to sleep. Er, no.
- Already feeling the stress of not having a job. Believe it or not...unemployment sucks
- 3 bedroom apartments with furniture are apparently like gold dust
- Getting lost...56 times a day
- WHY DO THESE MAPS MAKE NO SENSE
- Missing everyone...

More to come...love you! <3

Bye Then!

So you left, this will be the last time we see each other for 3 months, not a lot to some people maybe, but to say we lived together, worked together, and partied together for the best part of the past 4 years, its pretty major for us!

I'm gonna miss you :(
------------------

You Never Forget Your First...

...First blog post, that is!

It's definitely like the time that in just under two weeks I will cruelly and heartlessly desert Helen to skip off to the land of maple syrup, mounties, elks and innumerate bearded boys in plaid shirts who have loads of money and are single (well, here's hoping anyway)...I'm sorry Helen :(

On the bright side though, it's a great excuse to start a blog!

In all honesty I'm not even slightly sure how I'm going to cope without one of the few people who understand my ridiculous sense of humour, keeps me from going insane and throwing my phone into a wall (again) and shares my love of people in fruit costumes but oh well, at least I have this blog...

This blog aims to be a diary of sorts for us so that we can keep up with the gossip and goings-on in each others' lives while we're living on different sides of the pond. It's like the description says - love and friendship know no boundaries, and gossip, in-jokes, ridiculous humour and downright troublemaking sure don't either!

I sure am going to miss you Woolly... <3
