Wolverhampton and Catching Up
Sunday, 21 August 2011
Right. Before I talk about Wolverhampton, this is what I've been doing with my time.
I've spent hours catching up with Ao No Exorcist. I've read an obscene amount of NxTouko fanfiction. I've spent around 24 hours playing on Eternal Sonata. I've been treating myself a little bit with my money, so I have a few more games now. I've been hyping myself up for Amecon 2012, and trying to decide on who I should cosplay. I've been playing on The Sims 3. I've watched a lot of Zero Punctuation. I've spent a scary amount of time finding pictures of Yuya Matsushita to reblog on Tumblr. I watched a couple of episodes of Kamisama Dolls. I rewatched the last few episodes of Gurren Lagann (-sob-). That's about it to be honest.
Oh, and there was Gay Pride. It was about as strange as I remember it being.
So, I went to Wolverhampton a little over a week ago for 6 days, and it was a lot of fun. Though it was a little bitter sweet because it's kind of reminded me how much things can change.
Thursday
I arrived just before 8 and Iain met me at the train station. We went to Asda for a few supplies and got back and chilled out for the evening, just catching up. We played on a bit of Soul Calibur 3, and I was kind of awesome at it. I think he was having a bit of an off day with the game, but still. Saw Lewis, and Ben, caught up a bit.
Friday
Me and Iain decided to have a few hours in Wolverhampton. We went around Forbidden Planet, Waterstones and WHSmiths. I bought him a book from the clearance at WHSmiths for £1 as part of his birthday present, because I'm cheap. I bought the Blue Exorcist Manga for myself for the train ride back. Went to Asda again, went home and spent the rest of the day relaxing, because we'd somehow managed to be out for a good few hours. I watched what had been released of Usagi Drop with Lewis and it was adorable.
Saturday
Saturday was a kind of early start for me because I was going to Birmingham to see Kris! I hadn't seen him since May. We spent the day shopping and catching up. I bought Eden of the East on DVD, as well as a film called Sky Crawlers. We had Subway and he made fun of what I usually have. It was a really lovely day, all in all. I came back, met Iain at Asda again, and then when we got home, I bullied him and Lewis into watching the entirety of Eden of the East with me. The dub was awesome.
Sunday
Iain, Lewis and Qamar went to Forbidden Planet for Magic, while I stayed at home with the Xbox and a selection of anime. I managed to finish [C] The Money of Soul and Possibility Control, and get through a good portion of Deadman Wonderland (which was disgusting, and I hated a few of those episodes) before they came back. Watched an episode of Usagi Drop which brought me up to date, and the Eden of the East movie. After Lewis went to bed, me, Iain, Scarlett and later Ben had a good long conversation about pretty much everything for like, 3 hours or something, and I had a really good time.
Monday
Literally, fuck all happened. I was supposed to meet up with Cam but that ended up falling through. So I spent pretty much all day on Black Ops with Iain and Qamar. I suck so badly.
Tuesday
My last full day, and Iain's 26th Birthday~! We had tea and toast, and Qamar came around with a bag full of food, a cake and Suckerpunch on DVD as his gifts, which was really sweet. We played on a lot of games. We played on a little Halo, then more Black Ops. Then we went off to meet up with Lee, bought alcohol, came back and played on a lot of games. I played an awesome game of Hexic HD, then we watched Suckerpunch which made me cry. Good film though.
Then we got horrifically drunk (me and Iain polished off a bottle of Bacardi Gold Rum and a bottle of Sminoff Ice). We played never have I ever, which I barely remember. Iain set a toilet roll on fire and waved it around, and we had a fight when I went into the bathroom with the tens of toilet rolls that were on the floor. Then I went to bed. I don't really remember much, but I was pretty fucked.
Wednesday
I went home. I hated saying goodbye to Iain again and I was trying so hard not to cry because I hate crying on my own in public. I read Ao no Exorcist on the train, and it was awesome. Then randomly, Simon was at Nottingham train station so while I had my massive wait, I got to catch up with him a little bit and it was lovely.
Now I'm home. I guess a bit of an announcement is that I'm probably going to be moving in with Iain in the foreseeable future, as soon as I get the details, I'm sure I'll blog about it. I'm going to try and be better with this thing. I think my main problem is, I was doing stuff nearly everyday last summer, and that is just not the case this summer. I'll be better though.
