The strange man on the bus

So today was an interesting bus journey to say the least....
As soon as I stepped on the bus I saw this rather odd looking man, he had those round glasses on, you know them really small ones that are literally the size of your eyes, he looked like a bird watcher or a train spotter, just generally strange looking, I thought in my head that he would be trouble, I mean what was he doing on a college bus full of students. 
Well within a minute or too he exclaimed to the whole bus "wheelchair users only!! Wheelchair users! " and then I realised he was talking about the girl sat on the seat that said next to it " please give up this seat for wheelchair users" 
But the thing was there was not one single person who would ever need a wheelchair on the bus. 
The strange man then said again telling the whole bus " she is so selfish, stupid girl"
The girl in question sat there quietly with headphones in pretending not to hear a word. 
Everyone on the bus sat there in silence not wanting to look at the man, a girl looked at me with that look " oh god is this really happening" and I did the same. 
The strange man then turned around in his seat and tapped the man behind him, the man  had to remove his headphones to hear what the strange man had to say. He then again shouting loudly said to the man whilst pointing to the girl " wheelchair users only!! 
The man looked awkward and just muttered something before proceeding to put his headphones in, obviously just wanting to get on with his day. 
The bus arrived to the bus stop and a lot of people got off but not the strange man or the girl in the wheelchair only spot. The man got up and moved 3 seats forward and sat right in front of the girl in question, he then stared at her and muttered something, the bus set off again and just before the strange man decided to provoke the girl once more for sitting in a wheelchair on,y seat when there was no wheelchair the bus came to a halt and the girl got off and went her own way, probably to tell all her friends about the strange man.

Stop hash tagging please

Hi there we'll I haven't done a blog for ages and ages because I've been busy and haven't really had much to write about.
So where do I start.... Hash tagging you must all know by know that little symbol # that you use on twitter yes twitter, nothing else, basically a hash tag is used on twitter when you want to either search for a current topic so for example you want to see what is being said about comic relief so you would put #comic relief you can also put a hash tag in a tweet so that you come up in searches, so you've got that right?
Well apparently not as people don't seem to get
Now people are really starting to annoy me on Instagram as they keep posting pictures on Instagram and using hash tags for no reason for example they put the picture and then do this
For example a picture of a skirt they would put
#fashion#skirt#black#short#sparkly

Now quite frankly these people really get on my nerves it's just ridiculous, it looks so stupid and they obviously have no idea how to use a hash tag.
So please stop doing it now!

champagne bars, goats heads and Chinese food in Birmingham

Last week i went to meet my Brighton friend in Birmingham as its half way between both of us. We were staying in a travelodge that from the outside looks like its right next to the bull ring there fore it is going to be in a good location however when you look more closely its actually next to some rough looking buildings ha but not to worry.
The first day mainly consisted of coffee, shopping and more shopping, i ,love shopping in Birmingham apart from the annoying chuggers or charity muggers who keep coming up to you and the actual beggers asking me for some money to get a cup of tea, how selfish considering i hadn't even had a cuppa myself!
then there is those annoying love film people yes those ones who ask you how old you are, i just say im 16 just to see the look on their faces.
Later on we decided to go and look at the market, which i really wish i hadn't ! i walked to one stall and noticed what looked like horses legs and hooves on top of the counter and to my horror further down there was heads, goats heads to be precise! the way the eyes looked made me feel ill and before i looked at anything else i just started running and running until i got outside, i just had to get out because it made me feel so ill!
in the evening we went in search of an all you can eat Chinese, we realised our hotel is just round the corner from loads of Chinese places but they all looked a bit run down so we didn't dare set foot in them, instead we opted for one round the corner which upon entering realised it looked and was set up like a work canteen, but at 10 pound for all you can eat chinese including not so chinese puddings we couldn't turn it down, it looked quite tasty but on closer looks after we had paid we realised there wasn't a lot on offer so i settled for black bean chicken, noodles, chips and various other bits, the best bit was the not so chinese puddings which were mainly chocolate based.

the next day we set out to find the mailbox but when we go there realised it wasn't so good at all, we then carried on walking and ended up walking all done the canals, not actually in the water of course ha. it was really nice down there, we then found broad street where all the bars are, and ended up in Birmingham's answer to the city in London, which looked very posh. This all brought us back to the bullring and we realised we had gone round the longest way ever.
We decided later on to go to selfridges champage bar, mainly as it was a Thursday  night offer as we couldn't have afford to go there any other time! upon arrival we noticed everyone was just sat casually drinking bottles of moet at 5 in the afternoon, how crazy and there was some event going on at the other end of the bar, it was a far cry from scunthorpe! i had a French martini and a cosmopolitan which were both Delicious and for one night only i actually felt quite posh. it was so good, i want to go back again!
after all that posh stuff we went back to reality and went to pizza hut ha bit of a difference, after a chicken supreme and a coke it was time to investigate the chinese quarter,
We desicovered it was the same place as the chinese run down restaurants and to our surprise it all comes alive at night and there was loads of posh looking bars, we couldn't believe it, we went in one bar and realised it didn't live up to the expectations of the champagne bar so went back to the hotel for a sing song to oasis instead!

gaymers at 7am V festival 2012

Well I could write all about the bands and who was good and what I thought about them but that would take forever and frankly I can't be bothered so...
V fest was the first festival I have ever been to infact I haven't even been camping before so I had no idea what to expect! By the time we got there after a 7 hour journey to Chelmsford the site was full so we had no choice to set up next to the toilets, which started off fine but later on turned out to be abit of a nightmare as I found out in the middle of the night...toilet doors constantly banging at 5 in the morning isn't the best thing ever!
I realised people at festivals are quite unique, I mean who goes to sleep at 5am then gets up at half 6 all ready for the day and sat drinking gaymers apple and cherry cider. It is pretty crazy, speaking of crazy we had a crazy and annoying tent neighbour called Becky, who just from listening from my tent I found out all about her sex life or lack of it, her cats name, the countries she has been to and the fact she's gods gift to men! So when I saw her I was quite surprised as she was far from this. We was sat outside one day and she came up to us and asked us if we had any food or drink for her to have, what the hell! She then proceeded to drink whiskey with cider( our cider) and carried in taking about her sex life, she had gone to v fest with 2 guys who clearly seemed fed up and losing the will to live with her, I ended up getting  to know one of her male friends who seemed really nice at first, but I won't go into details but put it this way you don't go to v fest to meet your future husband!

I find the people funny who shout Alan Alan Alan all the time but don't find it as funny at 5 in the morning!
Another funny thing or not so funny thing depending on how you look at it is the incident yes incident that happened to cher Lloyd, we was watching her, not that I wanted to watch her but never mind anyway she was talking about how it's not very nice for people to throw wee at her and about 5 minutes later she was singing another song and then stormed off the stage like a 14 year old that hasn't been followed by Harry styles  for the 103 time, it turned out someone clearly had not listened to her request and had gone and thrown a bottle of urine at her again, someone clearly had it in for her that day, Im not a fan of Cher but no one deserves that.
At one point during the weekend I was walking around and found this short cut between stages and came across these toilets which were like actual toilets and I thought it was too good to be true turns out it was as I later found out this was VIP area or something ha.

During the weekend there was several celebs out and about most in the village but some were spotted in the main arena, the thing is you could walk right past them and wouldn't notice as there is that many people, how crazy is that.

On the last night I wanted to see snow patrol and the killers but my friends didn't so I went on my own, I thought it would be scary but amongst all the crowd it didn't matter at all and there was some people on their own as well. Snow patrol were amazing as usual, and the killers were really good,their set was quite eerie almost and Brandon spoke litter words but I think this adds to the effect they was trying to create, singing along to mr bright side with about 50,000 people was the highlight of my weekend.

Isle of wight

My uncle and auntie live in the isle of wight and as we had not been in a few years we decided to go stay for a week.
Now I could write about how beautiful the island is and how nice the scenery is but for one thing I can't be bothered and for another it would be pretty boring!
So il just give an overview of the week
One day we went to ventnor, the home of. Pub called the spyglass where Russell brand and Robert pattinson have been spotted in the past.
Sandown is not so celeb style it is more like Blackpool and I wouldnt go again!
Cowes is a really popular place and we went for cowes week  which is the most  
popular yachting event of the year. I have decided I want to be a sailers wife ha.
There was also some really beautiful boys there
I love the way the whole island feels like it has stayed in the 50s and I love the laid back lifestyle it really is nice.

Race for life

Better late than never I have finally got round to posting this!
On the 29th of July 2012 I went to Hull to do race for life, which if you don't know is a 3 mile run or walk across hull. I was doing race for life on my own but it didn't matter as there was lots of other people on there own too. I was totally unprepared for this race as I had given up running a while back and started cycling instead but cycling wasn't going to help me in this race! Just before the race started a man shouted out that everyone had to be in different start points according to whether they would be running jogging or walking the race, at this point no one knew what was going on so I stayed in the one I was in which turned out to be the one for serious runners ha oh dear. So anyway the claxon went and off we went, I started running for about a minute then realised I couldn't do it so walked, I switched between running and walking for most of the race. My mum and my friend was there to watch me. Whilst taking part I kept reading the backs of peoples tops and it was quite emotional seeing all the messages and dedications to loved ones, people were running for so many different reasons and I found it emotional seeing how cancer can affect so many people and families.
The 3 mile race seemed to be at least 10 miles and it was a really hot day! By the end of it I was getting tired and when I reached the end I thought I would have to do another lap! Luckily that was the finish line even though there was no one cheeri bit was a bit of a strange feeling.
But when I realised I had finished I did feel really good and thinking this time last year I couldn't even get up the stairs I realised I had come so far in a year.
The next couple of days my muscles ached like I had done a Marathan ha but never mind I will definitely be doing it next year

Holidays from Glasgow, a virtual world and dance offs

So this weeks blog is another random one, these blogs are pretty random aren't they but oh well haha. To start with I want to talk about my funny night on Saturday night, I went to this surprise wedding anniversary do,so we was all sat quiet and poised ready for when the person in question walked through the door, not a pin drop was heard and the lights were off and then she walks in and I could tell straight away that she wasn't at all surprised, it turns out she had known about it all along, I mean how stupid! So the night mainly consisted of drinking 13 southern comfort and lemonades, 3 vodkas and 2 shots followed by a dance off with my friend that got very messy, let's face it I'm no changing Tatum! Then later on we headed to town and as soon as I got there I felt sober as a judge( are judges actually always sober) and then I realised town looked honorific and the thought of tea and toast in bed seemed far more appealing! I think I've got to the point where town is only good if your absolutely off your face which after 13 southern comforts you would think I would be, once I had 4 ciders and I was dying for the whole next day, I mean what's that all about?! Also when I was out I kept thinking to myself I bet the majority of these girls that go out look absolutely nothing without all the makeup and tan they have applied with a trowel, sorry but that's the way I see it! My next point is about holidays, I have been looking for a last minute deal and I've noticed that every flight seems to depart from Glasgow, I mean why Glasgow, surely it is less cost effective from all the way up in Glasgow rather than just setting off from London right? I just don't understand it at all, is there something about Glasgow that i don't know about, like it has it's own special flight path to get to Spain that the airports everywhere else don't. Hmm it's a mystery and rather annoying as I don't really want to travel all the way to Glasgow to then travel back down again on the actual plane! Stupid this it. Enough said. My next point is about the Olympics or rather team GB, you know those two letters that are on every item you ever pick up, I mean why can't they just say great Britain, it's like we are embarrassed of the fact so we call it GB to get down with the cool kids, speaking of the Olympics I'm not saying anything bad about it but Is it really necessary for them to mention it every 3 seconds of every day and count down constantly, I ,dan about 10% of our country have probably got tickets to go see it and the rest of us will watch it in the background on our tvs so why is everyone so obsessed by it? My final point this week is about everyone's becoming obsession with the world that is twitter, yes that social network site that is fast becoming more popular than Facebook, your whole life in 140 characters or less told to the world, the thing I am still finding bizarre about twitter is the fact that anyone in the world can follow you without having to request first, I mean how do they come across you in the first place, do they scour the net looking for you, or do they just think she looks ok il follow her, but these people always have about 3 followers to there name so how can they possibly find you in the first place? It's so strange. Then there is people's obsession with celebrities, twitter is full of 12 year old girls constantly asking for one direction to follow them, the thing I don't get is why they think that saying sentences such as " if you follow me I will sleep better tonight" will get them a follow is beyond me, I mean seriously?! If you was famous and you had hundreds of girls saying these type of things to you everyday wouldnt you think they was a bit crazy? And then there's them girls that actually write down the date that Liam or someone followed, I mean what are they actually benefitting from someone famous following them? All they are benefiting from is them being big headed that is all! And really if someone does happen to follow you it's by pure luck at the most, imagine you have 500+ mentions, your not going to read them all are you, your just going to pick one, and if that one happens to be some girl then that is the only reason they follow, another point is say these people do follow you what does that mean? It's just a virtual world, they are not speaking to you in real life, the picture you have up is most likely fake or edited and what you write about yourself is probably fake as well so at the end of the day it means nothing! End of Right time to put the kettle on I think! Sarah xoxo
