Trumpet - Strumpet - Pump it!

Whoot. So yesterday was our prom. Yeah, I know, finally.

It was quite a random affair (well... Not really). It all started on Wednesday, really, when I had my hair cut and coloured lots of magical colours. It looked pretty cool, if I do say so myself, the only thing is that it is a good 3 1/2 inches shorter than it was, if not a tad more.

SO then on Thursday, at roughly 4.30 I hovered over to Rachel's house for our make-up lady thing. She did my make up first. It was pink! I know! Pink! And I wore hardly any eye liner. I know! How unlike me!

Then Robyn had hers done, then Rachel. Then we all got dressed up! Hardcore! I had a weird dress. It was like, stripes of materials and stuff. I dunno. I looked sexeh, though. Rachel had a black 'bondage' dress (according to Robyn) and Robyn wore her really lovely christmas feast dress.

We had a turquoise-blueish Rolls Royce. It looked cool with our dresses. So then we drove to the Fennes. It was about 30 minutes or so, maybe 45 I don't remember hugely.

Then we were there. Everyone was dressed really cool. Very smart. The place looked really nice. The grounds were very pretty, and so was the building itself. We had our photos taken (Rachel, Robyn and I had one together) by a professional photographer. He took two photos, but we only got one back :( It's a shame, I was blowing kisses in the other picture. I think I did that alot.

The food was a bit... shite. The started Rachel and I asked for (Ceaser salad without chicken... i.e. salad) was apparently impossible to do, even though we were told it'd be fine. So we ended up being given the melon :( which we had to wait an age for. And then the mains. We asked if there was an alternative to pasta, but were told that there probably wasn't. But there was! It was like ratatouille on puff pastry. I have to be in the mood for pastry, and unfortunately I wasn't in the mood for it, but it was quite pleasant. It came with potatoes which were really really good, but the other vegetables on the side were practically cold (as was the pastry thing). Then the pud was profiteroles (sp?). I'm not a huge fan of them, really, and as I said I wasn't in the mood for pastry. There was only three. And then like, a plop of cream in the middle, i suppose to bulk it out. Tom ate three plates of them. I had one, but I only really ate it because I was hungry.

Then we danced the night away to such classics as Grease Lightning, I've Had The Time Of My Life, and American Idiot... Yeah, you get my sarcasm.

Then it was home time at 12ish. We got to Robyn's and opened a bottle of champagne and ate some random food that we found in the cupboards (a weird raspberry, low-fat cakey bar thing) and drank bucks-fizz! I hate champagne. Tastes like cat piss... because we all know what that tastes like.

And today we had our leavers assembly. It wasn't that exciting, really. Just the usual 'Good luck with your future' speeches, which are a bit... blah.

And we went shopping today. I bought The Cult - The Singles 1984 - 1995. I've got two of The Cult's albums. Cool band.

When I got home I found out that all my little kitties had missed me, especially Emmie, who's been clinging to me so much since her operation. She ignored me for about 5 minutes, then she decided she wasn't getting any love that way, and came down as if to say 'Where were you? Did you not know that I was here? Did you forget to take me out with you?' Bless.

Oh, t'other day I spilt nail varnish on my keyboard. She is not happy! I tried to remove it, but it really failed miserably. I mean, it doesn't not work, it just looks messy. So I may get a new one, even though this one is only a couple months old.

Also, when I get my phone to upload the pictures from the prom, I'll post them here. Also, I'll scan our professional one, because it's quite nice, if I do say so myself.

Anyway, I'm knackered. I got three hours sleep last night, so I'll sleep damn well tonight, no doubt.

Speak to you soon, lovies!
