On Wednesday 11th July 2007 I was woken by my alarm at 4:30am as I was going to Scunthorpe and had to leave the house before 7am to get down to the train station to get on the first of three trains.
I wasn't a happy bunny when my alarm went off as I'd only just had two and a half hours sleep because I couldn't fall asleep the night before. When my alarm went off I woke up and it was crazy how I felt. I was shaking and I didn't know what was going on around me and it was because of my lack of sleep. I went downstairs and had something to eat before making my way back upstairs for a shower. Once I'd showered, dry, moisturized and dressed I was back in my bedroom drying my hair and applying my make up before packing the last of my items before making my way down the stairs.
By the time I was ready it was soon coming up for 7am and I was running a little behind. My train was just before ten past 7 so I was rushing to get to the statio. My dad dropped me off at the front of the station and I rushed in and made it to the platform five minutes ahead of the train which was lucky for me. The train soon arrived and I found myself a nice seat and sat down and prepared for the long trip ahead. I think the first part of the trip was something like 90 minutes so I brough my MP3 player and put that on soon realising some of I'd lost 450 song off it and there was only 20 random ones on it, some of which I didn't even have on before so didn't know how they got on.
My first change over was at Leeds and I was so glad to get off the train there. It had gone to a train staion and then started to go backwards so I was wondering if I'd forgotten to get off. I hate going backwards but there was nothing I could do because the train was now packed and had run out of seats as people were standing because of there being no seats. After going backwards for 10-15 minutes the train finally arrived in Leeds and I was a very happy bunny to be able to get off there.
I then made my way to the toilet and found out where my next train was leaving from. I found the train and it happened to be a posh one heading for London but stopping in at where I needed to get off and for some reason I can't remember where that is *lol*. I sat back and relaxed for the 20 minutes journey before finally getting off at my next destination. Then I found I was at the wrong side of the station and needed to be at the other side and my train was due in 1 minutes later. I made my way under the station and ran up the stairs at the other side as my train was stopping, I got on and got the last seat. Now I could sit back and relax as it was my last change over before I got to Scunthorpe.
30 minutes later I was stood on the platform at Scunthrope and Dianna and Nathan were nowhere to be seen. OMG!! I was stressed out at that point and didn't know what to do so I stayed there waiting because I didn't want to walk off and look for them and they come there and we miss each other. They turned up about ten minutes later and I went off to use the toilets which were locked. WE then made our way t a pub to have a drink and use the toilet before making our way back to the trainstation and boarding a train to Cleethorpes.
I was soooo tired at this point. I think if I led down I would of been aslee in a few seconds. Anyway the train journey wasn't nice because I'd been on a train for over three hours that morning and now I was on another one and I felt sich which of course wasn't very nice. I was glad when we finally arrived and were out in the fresh air.
Cleethorpes was fun. We walked down the beach front and went into Willys pub where Nathan was a vandal and smashed some glasses. We left there and I bought Dianna and Nathan some fish and chips and a fish and chip place. We then decided to look for the mini golf place so we walked for ages and ages before finally asking someone if they knew where it was and it turns out we walked past it ages ago so we had to make our way back which seemed to take forever *lol*. We then found one and played a fun gameof mini golf and Nathan won and Dianna was a right little vandal, you are never going to guess what she did. She knocked a rabbit's head off!! But don't worry, it wasn't a real rabbit and we put the head back on before quickly moving on. Because Dianna lost the game she had to buy Nathan and me a ice cream so I was happy because I got a really nice ice cream.
We then went in a arcade place and I won Dianna a couple of things on those 2p machines before Dianna started to feel ill and needed to go outside to get some air. We left there and went and sat in a bar and drank cheeky vimpto and played pool before making our way back to the train station to get a train back to Scunthorpe. When we got to the trainstation I was totally convinced I needed the toilet but they had shut the ones on the station so I had to wait to use the one on the train. We got on the train and I rushed to the toilet but when I got in there I found I didn't need to go which was a good thing because when I got out someone said the toilet was broke *lol*.
We got to Scunthorpe and went into a bar and drank really nice cocktails. I loved them!! Before Nathan's mum came and picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel I was staying at that evening. We went in and I booked myself in and we all went up to my bedroom.
OMG! my bedroom was horrible. It was dirty and the beds weren't properly made and the bathroom wasn't that clean and there was cigerette burns in one of the covers. I was so glad to get out of that room and go down and get something to eat.
We ordered our food and were sat waiting for it when this woman came out with the food and put mine in front of me and said "here's some kind of prawn thing dear" (I'd ordered prawn cocktail) and then she put Diann'a down in front of her and said "here is some kind of crispy fish thing" and then walked off. Dianna had ordered chicken and was thinking WTF!! because the woman had just said she had fish *lol*. It was chicken but it was so funny that the woman didn't know what we had ordered. THe woman then came back with Nathans and said "here is some kind of mushroomy thing" *lol*.
We were sat eating our starters and that woman kept coming out and staring at us like she wanted us to hurry up. It was so annoying and she even came and asked us if we were almost finished. Then she brought the main courses and I ordered a half chicken thing and it was rock hard because it was over cooked so I barely ate it, it was horrible and Nathan's and Dianna's was over cooked too. The dessert was much better, we had banana split but I didn't feel too well so I gave Nathan most of mine. We then got some drinks and went and played pool until they were closing.
We went back to my room and hung out for a littl bit and made a video which can be found on my profile page. Then Nathan and Dianna went back to Nathan's mums in a taxi.
Next morning I woke up feeling sick and had a headache. I showered and got ready and went down and checked out and paid my bill and practially got chucked out of the hotel because they were cleaning. Dianna and Nathan were running late again so I used that time to phone my dad and when I was on the phone they turned up. Nathan's mum took my dad and Dianna, Nathan and I made our way down to McDonalds to get some breakfast. I ended up getting soaked in the toilets because of the stupid taps and I had to dry myself under the dryer and Nathan probably thought was were having a shower in there the time it took us.
We then went bowling and Nathan won again *lol*. I really enjoyed playing bowling again but my shoes were slightly too small and I didn't feel too well but I carried on. We then got a taxi into town to eat and I bagan to feel really sick and when I was in the Chinese place I could only eat rice because I felt so sick. I ended up eating just rice because the smell of everything else was making me want to throw up. Then Dianna and I went to the toilets and you are never going to believe what happened? OMG! I lent against the sink which was soaking and my top got soaked and I mean soaked!! It was wetter than it was that morning in the McDonalds. I was lucky they had a hand dryer on the wall and I was able to dry it.
We then got a taxi up to Nathan's mums and I felt sick still. It was a horribel feeling, every slight movement made me feel like I wanted to throw up. We were sat at Nathan's mums for a while and even went to asda which was round the corner but I still felt ill. We then got a lift to near the trainstation. We went into the pub and had a couple of drinks and I was trying to eat food to settle my stomach but it wasn't working. We went to the trainstaion and I knew that I couldn't get on the train because of how ill I felt so Nathan rang his mum and asked if I could stay the night at her house and she agreed so we went to meet her.
That evening we went out with a couple of Nathan's friends. We went to the pub and had something to eat and played a music quiz and I got thrashed at pool by Nathan's friend before we called in Asda on our way back to Nathan's mums. Nathan went to bed almost straight away and Dianna and I ended up staying up for a few hours before she went to bed.
I ended up tossing and turning all night but I did get some sleep at some point. I woke up at around 10am and sat around waiting for Nathan and Dianna to get up so I could go and have a shower but Nathan's mum came back before they got up. I had a shower after Dianna and then dried my hair in Nathan and Dianna's room. Their room was so messy I almost couldn't stand in there *lol*.
Soon it was lunch time and Nathan's mum had cooked an amazing dinner and I felt so bad as I wasn't able to manage much of it. I still felt really ill and I'd been ringing my dad almost begging him to come and pick me up because I knew there was no way I could get on the train.
Around 5:30pm me and my dad had a argument and he basically told me to get on the train and I told him I wasn't and I put the phone down thinking that he would come and pick me up. Dianna and I went to Asda and came back and Nathan was getting ready to go out and I felt like I was in the way. They had made plans and I didnt think it was fair me being there. They were eventually ready to leave and were walking out to meet Nathan's friends.
There was a little upset at that point and a little fall out because of crossed wires but I basically ended up sat at the train station for three hours in the cold with loads of weirdos about.
I eventually got hold of my dad around 9pm who was coming for me. He then changed his mind and headed back home before setting off back for me. Dianna and Nathan eventually turned up for me and we made our way up to Nathan's mums house and dropped my bag off before going in town to meet Nathan's friends. At this point I didn't feel well at all, I was in so much pain (I will do another blog about my illness soon) I could barely breath and was hurting so much I was almost in tears the whole time. I was so relieved when my dad turned up at 12:30pm.
WE had a drink and then took Nathan and Dianna back to Nathan's mums to pick my bag up, we then went into Asda to get some snacks and painkillers for me before saying goodbye to Nathan and Dianna.
Didn't get home till 6:30am and I was totally out of it with illness.
It was a good trip except the illness.
