Ok , I just found out ,that there are actually some people from here that are reading my blog.. :O well that puts a pressure on me :D , now I have to start think about what I am writing , cuz they might be reading :) ...
No I gonna write in the same way...
So 21.09.2011 , ay?
Ye I already posted some pictures about today's day . I made my first meal :D ( here , not like in my life ) ... I had the speech number 3 this morning at 9 o clock , damn , that's early , I went to bad really late , cuz of the really long post yesterday :D , I were writing for almost an hour , I don't know when you write ,the time just flows by :( ...
Ok Anyway , so ye after the speech I ate ... then I finally decided to risk and download the newest tv episode of Breaking Bad... I don't really know if it was risky , bet a lot of people back in home , said that it is really dangerous to download stuff , here cuz it illegal , and they really do catch you . And someone I thing Mr.G , told me that they find you and cut off your Uni internet off... so I was really scared of that . BUT still I cant live without the shows :D , so I went for it and downloaded it like in 10 minutes. .. All quiet , nobody ,is coming for me yet :N ... So I like wait and stuff, and then's there like all kind of weird sounds outside my room in the hallway , and I am like freaked out :O , I mean O my God ,they really are coming for me ?!?!? So I lock the door and wait :D ...
(some of this may be a bit exaggerated :D )
After some time , that I have spent standing at the door and listening , I finally realized that the sounds are just some , British Ladies cleaning our kitchen :) ... Ye laugh as much as you can now :D :D :D .... After that everything was silent .. And I took the great pleasure in watching the episode... just for the record, this episode was actually really good ( the previous ones was a bit boring) ...
Anyway after well spent 50 minutes it was time to get to the bus , to the trip to St.Albans..
They had several buses taking us there , and the people were divided my their color of their ticket . i got yellow one , but sadly the Americans had blue one , so we couldn't go together.
So when I got into the queue , I made friend with two guys named Tom from Slovakia doing Visual effects yeee , someone from the same school :) , and a guy from Sir Lanka , who said that we should call him Rocky :) , ye that's right , so I remember that, and he is going to study Music & Technologies , yee another Creative arts guy ... they both are here for Bachelors , so I gonna see those guys around :)
Anyway , we spend the whole trip together , and that was a nice walk around the city and a nice talk , about music , about phones , cars , and stuff like that :) .. the Guy from Sir Lanka ( Rocky) was pretty much speaking about , how the women here are beautiful ( not only British girls but from all type of nationalities) that was funny :D.
So I think I gonna do another report on stuff like architecture and buildings some time later, when I gonna combine all the most beautiful pictures. So now I just gonna say that the St.Albans Abbey WAS AMAZINGLY STUNNING , like , hands down , to the people that built it , the details , the craftsmanship , man , I was just touched ,and owed ,I am always like that when I am around something that humans have made , and when its that beautiful,or just that detailed, bold ,strong , and huge , but also felling light inside- it wasn't gloomy ,dark or depressing at all ..I cant even imagine how people can build and make something like this
( pictures coming later in the morning , I still have a lot to cover)
Ok , so I stayed at the Church for quite some time , cuz I wanted to explore every little corner of it , because there were so many crazy things hidden behind the next corner, like some huge painting or smth.... So I actually was the last person leaving the Abbey :)... so that made me quite worried , because I had lost everybody else , and I didn't have any Idea were to go next ... Luckily ,though , the guys Tom and Rocky were just waiting for me outside , yee again ... So we continued to walk further and we got to the lake , that was amazing... Ok I get it , too much amazing things :D , but that's just true. Definitely come visit the city if you happen to be at England. It is one of the oldest towns in all of the UK ( at least that's what the guides told us (as far as I know , non of them is a History major ) :D )
So anyway , I knew that there is an Warhammer - Games Workshop (for those who have no Idea whats that , just google it :D , I cant explain everything ..OR if u want to see how I am connected with it visit http://www.dakkadakka.com/core/gallery-search.jsp?u=35859 .) , somewhere around St.Albans, so I wanted to find it. And we did . It was a nice shop , and the sales person was really nice ,he gave me his name and we had a nice chat about the gaming custom-(s ?) down there . And asked about Games day & Golden Demon 2011, and tickets , and he said that they actually still have 2 tickets left. So maybe if I am gonna be free at Sunday I gonna go , If I find someone to go with :( , don't wanna go there alone ...
Anyway , of course I didn't buy anything ,YET , because first you have to know where everything is , and then you can go home make a list of things you really need , and just come back and purchase them ... otherwise I gonna just spend too much money :D..
So after that we went into like a mobile and internet store. And I was just asking the seller about the broadbands and stuff, and he like explained everything and asked about my country and myself .. Ok that's good , but when I told I gonna take the product , he just wondered off ?!?!?!? what? , I don't know just you know , maybe he was waiting for the other seller or something , dunno , but as he didn't have any interest left in me , I just walked away( that's better anyway , the broadband plan was too expensive)
Man, this is going to take too much time :D ,I am only in the middle of the day , and the best was at the evening :D
Anyway fast forward , so I found tool-shop and bought some of the tools I gonna need in my course , like hammer and stuff :D
Bought some more food ( bread , corns ! , :) , muffins ( I like the muffins they make here) ) ye and then we basically went home :)
After that I was kinda tired , of the walking and carrying the bags, so I just took a nap... then I talked to my father and mother and friends in skype ,and then It was time to go to the barn dance , iiiiihaaaaaaaaa !
So I took my suit shoes , cuz they look a bit like cowboy boots :D , and they had like hard solid heel ( i was hoping to make a lot of sound with them ,like you would if you had the boots.. I took my chequered shirt , so I looked almost like a real cowboy , I missed only the hat ( ye , well , I guess ,that's a big thing to miss :D ,for a cowboy) ...
Anyway , I went out and tried to find the location , but couldn't find it , and I didn't have my map , so I was kind sad , that I gonna miss it , but then I experienced how my brain works :D,
So this is going to be a magnificent story about how something can lead to something else , that leads to another thing ,that leads to the solution! ! ! !
Sot they(the brains) started to figure things out like this:
First I remembered what was written on the time-table under the bold Barn dance letters, the part circled red ... Just a reminder so I didn't had the time table with me either , I just used my photo memory of it . Of course I am no super human , so the only part I remembered clearly was the thing that was circled blue ( and CL -for college lane)
So I had those two words in my mind ,and I was lie repeating it ( the word Venue) and ....
by the way , there were no people outside , it was dark , and no one to just ask this , so ye I was alone with my mind :D..
You see the thing is that I didn't know what the word VENUE means :D , truth be told , I dont even know that now :)
However somehow , somewhere in my mind I thought that the Venue must have to be doing something with big halls and rooms ... So the first thing to cam to my mind was the Forum ( the big huge house , that has all the clubs and pubs inside it .) And something told be that halls were named venues , well so I had a strong feeling that I gonna find my answer there ( in the Forum ) so I went there , trough the mud , over the hills , under the roads , and deep into the darkness, with cold wind bowing in my face....
Obviously when I finally saw the forum I thought I was victorious ! I have found the Barn , ye but that sounded to good and easy to be true... So what happened instead , was that on the door of the entrance of the Forum , I spotted a paper poster , saying Barn Dance . Yipee again , I am at the right place ... ye really?!?! no , there were small letters under the big bold Barn Dance , that said : moved to the De Havilland campus :( :( :( :( :( :( : ( :(
:D , ok so the story has come to an end now , my brain made me go somewhere were I thought I was meant to be , and they were right( the brains or memory cells or whatever :D ) , that's just not their fault that the event had been moved :) right ?
Ok so I am going to stop here .. I hope I remember everything tomorrow, but its just too late now , and I cant keep my eyes open :( ... Plus I hope to get some pictures to really show , what happened at the Barn dance ... Ye after I found out that its moved , I knew were to go( just around the corner to the bus station) however the bus didn't come for almost 30 minutes , and then one of the guides persuaded :D , one of the bus drivers from other bus to take us all ( there were quite a number of people going to the event) to the other Campus. YEY
OK, so while I we waited the bus , I met Deb and she introduced me to two other people named ( I hope I spell it right) Jacklin(?).... she was from USA , Florida , and shes here for History (studies) that's cool , I like history ,a lot :) , and the other guys name was , don't know exactly , but I remember it sounded something like Cereal (:D) , ye sorry , he was from France, and he is doing aerospace also :) (Deb is doing aerospace engineering as well ) ..
So there you go , I had a new pack of people :D .... There were Nathan also , the guy from USA, Texas, he had like cowboy hat and nice looking shirt , so he was fully cowboy equipped :) (except for boots , but who cares about boots when u have HAT ) .. Actually there were many more people that I knew , the girl from Bulgaria ( Sonia- shes like at the every event- very active person :) ) , and of course a lot of Indian guys and Sir Lanka guys from the games night :)
ok , so we went to the barn dance finally ,and ye basically danced and stuff :D ..
They weren't like the line dances ,that I thought they gonna be , but it still was fun (because of the company) , the music was like the same all the time :D . So the band leading man , was just shouting like , instructions of how to move and what to do . basically we stood at a circle and did different hops and turns ,and spins :D , and the same for almost 5-10 minutes 2 h long :D ... that was actually quite exhausting , but fun ,nevertheless ... Of course I met a lot of other people that I had met before - so I strengthened my knowledge of their name :D .... So it was fun , fun to dance , and fun to watch others dance :D ..
I hope I gonna get some pictures from Deb or the other girl , so I can post them here as well.
So look , seems that I have managed to write everything ( ok almost ,there's still the way back and stuff :D , but I cant like write all my life down ,can I ? :D)
So, take care, do barn dance , spend time with your friends and enjoy architectural miracles :) . thanks again for being so patient and interested to read it all the way , down to here :D
I guess I gonna need to figure out a way to tell everything in a shorter version :D , pictures should be a help in that, they sometimes can say a lot more that written words ...( maybe :D)
oks this time really , good night(or day) and see you back here tomorrow .
OMG , I just figures out what the TBC means :D :D :D :D ,lol that means to be confirmed :D . LoL , now I get it ... nice work brains... and venue is just like a place ...
