On Saturday, me and my friend traveled up to Leeds for Slam Dunk Festival. It was quite a long journey, but it was interesting to see how the accents of people getting on the train changed, the higher north we got. When we finally got to Leeds we were in desperate need of a hot drink. After sitting in the train station for a while, sipping white chocolate mochas (so yummy), we suddenly realised it was later than we thought, and that we should probably find our hotel. Luckily it wasn't too hard to find, however it was raining a bit.
The All-American Rejects
After dropping off our stuff at the hotel, we headed out to find the festival, but ended up walking in circles and got completely lost. Eventually we heard music and followed our ears. Finally we got to the site but then got confused how to get in. In the end we arrived, slightly bedraggled and ready to rock. We may have only saw a few of the bands, but they were totally worth the hassle getting there.
I really enjoyed seeing We Are The In Crowd again, especially when they played one of my favourite songs at the moment, The Best Thing (That Never Happened). We also got to see Mallory Knox and knew more of their songs than we realised. Then The All-American Rejects blasted onto stage with Dirty Little Secret. I was really into them in my first year at uni, so it was good to finally see them live.
The next day we made the most of being in Leeds with a shopping trip. And yes, we got a bit lost again, and drenched by the rain, but hey that's all part of the adventure!
Last Saturday me and my sister went to see McBusted play in Birmingham. We were big fans of Busted in our pre-teen/ early teen years and it was amazing to finally see them live, and they did not disappoint. McFly and Busted played all their top hits and gave a good show, which included a flying space ship, Matt Willis in a wedding dress and some giant balls! There were also some pretty awesome pyrotechnics going on.
Been there, got the t-shirt.
Me and Amy have very different tastes in music, so it was really nice to be able to go and do something like that together. It was such a good night and I'd fully recommend it to any McFly and/or Busted fans.
Yesterday I had my last exam and went out for lunch with my course-mates to celebrate. Somehow it turned into a bar crawl around Coventry. Spontaneous days/nights out are always the best!!
Weatherspoons - The Earl of Mercia (Vodka and Coke)
Weatherspoons - The Flying Standard (Hollywood, Strawberry Daiquiri)
Castle (Vodka Redbull)
Brown's (Vodka and Coke)

While we were out we played a game where we had to guess peoples five favourite alcoholic drinks in order.
