Yesterday was awesome!

First of all, I was woken up by a text from my dad at 8:10 saying that my brother had done really well in his A-Levels and will be going to uni! Woop woop! I caught up on some TV before my parents and brother came back from collecting his results and then I had a bath in preparation for going out for lunch to celebrate the good news!

We got a taxi (presumably so the fam could get a little tipsy and not have to worry about driving home) to a nice Italian restaurant called Eden in the centre of town and because it was the middle of the day, no one else was in the restaurant so all our food came very promptly :) I had cauliflower and mozzarella soup which was interesting... I liked the bread that came with it though! Then for the main, I had a gorgeous margarita pizza which was yummy! Pudding was obviously chocolate fudge cake and I had a few J2Os and a sip of champagne during the meal.

Then we left the restaurant and headed to the bus station to get the bus home because apparently it was cheaper than getting a taxi home. We had to wait about 20 minutes for the bus to arrive so I went to T.K.Maxx in the shopping centre next door to see if there were any bargains there. There was a small final clearance section at the back where I saw a knitted jumper on sale for 20p! I saw some packs of Essie, Revlon and O.P.I. nail polishes reduced quite a lot but I had no money with me so I couldn't get anything; darn it!

We caught the bus home, which actually cost more than getting a taxi home, it took longer because the bridge was off and when we finally got to our bus stop we had to walk from the bus stop to our house so we all learnt a valuable lesson about public transport there.

When we got in, we all sat and watched Paranormal Activity 3 because my mum insisted that we watch it while it was still light outside. It was kinda freaky but having seen the first too films it wasn't as bad, because I knew what to expect. I probably went on YouTube after that and caught up on videos from that day until it was teatime. We still weren't that hungry, however, so we just had a couple of slices of bread each and some brownie bites :D yum!

We watched Final Destination 5 as well after that, which was way more gory than the first film and it was clever how it linked back to the first film too. Then I went to bed.

All in all it was a nice family day out (and in). I hope we can have another day together like that next week when I get my results...
