I'm going on a plane (Probably my trip thread)

I mean if I want to be full of myself for the next two weeks and assume everyone wants to know what I'm doing, I may as well do it on the forum where everyone can see, and in 5 years I'll probably cry.

Today I'm getting on a plane. Well. At 9 EST. I woke up this early so I could cry about my AP exam scores but Canada scores are released on Saturday even though the website has July the 5th in big bold letters.

That means I'll be in England and at least my mom can't yell at me for failing from an ocean away. To be honest if I do I'm not going to tell her because she probably forgot.

All week I've been getting ready for this trip, however, so was my grandmother, even though she ISN'T COMING. She is living through me (or something, Rita tells me) As she has asked me about my prom dress at least 7 times every hour, and even tried to fold it up, even though I had done it already, and it caught on her cast which ripped it. She doesn't know that, but I'm not going to tell her lol, and I've never been so happy to see my aunt Rita who took me to her house. To show you how bad my grandmothers obsession with the prom dress is, when we first got to Ritas house my aunt Rosie called me but Nonna called her and asked about the dress. Sweet Jesus. Then while Rita was trying to show me where they found a dead body a week ago, Nonno called because the poor women was probably driving him crazy. I wonder why Nonnos hearing aid is "broken". I think he just needs some peace and quiet.

Before I left home, my cousins were over. Gracie is about 6-7, and she's very sharp. She came into the computer room and asked me:
"Kiki (not to be confused with Kiwi) is Al your boyfriend or is Hunter your boyfriend because I don't know"
"Do you think we're dating because he's a boy? if Hunter was a girl, would you just think we're friends?"
"No Cailyn I would think you're gay."

I feel like Gracie figured out a lot of things, including that I'm bi, before I left. I just hope she doesn't repeat them.

Everyone thinks Hunter's gay, which isn't a surprise to me, anyway, but Rita said this in the car and so I had to send it to Hunter to see what he said xD



Ritas hair is shorter then Ellen's (Like Dory, that Ellen), and honestly I've wondered.

I'm not supposed to be up till 4:15, but I woke up and thought I may as well, it's already 3:30 lol. I downloaded everything you guys suggested in my other thread, and so I'm all set. I'm not going to sleep on the plane so I'm tired enough to fall asleep later at night.
All week I didn't feel excited yet. I'm starting to get to that trip-excited now, but it probably won't hit me until I see Al and his family at the airport. And even then do we know if your reality is real? Is our reality real if we're the only ones who think it is?

Anyway I imagine this is going to get some interesting replies so at least I have some entertainment while we're waiting for take off. I'll make sure to post when I'm there so you guys know I'm safe lol.

 

I can't think of anything witty to say so, be safe, enjoy your trip, and don't come back with a British accent

 

youre canadian?

 

Eh, is that really a surprise. ;)

Hi I'm home. Well not at my house at Al's house lol. I watched all of Deadman's Wonderland but there are only 12 episodes and the ending didn't END. Which sort made me mad so I was a bit too ticked to watch anything else. I wrote for an hour and I played bejeweled and stuff. I was super happy to land and luckily no one clapped on the airplane when it did.

I also thought it saw a celebrity on our plane lol. Rita and I were near the window of the airport waiting area thing and this women had sunglasses on but she was facing AWAY from the window and it wasn't like, super sunny. And she had a striking resemblance to Willa Fitzgerald who plays the protagonist in the Scream TV show. I mean if she didn't want anyone to recognize her sunglasses made sense I guess lol. To see if it was though I started trying to get my aunt to watch the show, she looked like she was going to say something but she didn't. She did take off her glasses after that though and the resmblance was UNCANNY if anything. I didn't want to invade anyone's privacy though so I didn't ask/talk to them.

Anyway the Prom is tonight so I'm going to go post some pictuuuuures later, I'm really excited.

 

Can't wait for the next update with photos!! Enjoy yourself!!

 

We're starting to get ready! Just got my hair done, now we're going to do my nails. After that I basically can't move forever, until I get into my dress anyway

 

You look amazing Cal <3

 

Omg Look at you two! You both look wonderful! Have a great time at prom and Al you show off your awesome girlfriend and be like "look, she came to England for me. Isn't she awesome?"

 

actual princess cal

 

Have fun Cal!

 

I love your dress! It's so beautiful and I love the design! I hope you have fun at Prom c:

 

The prom was fantastic! They served free booze to their students though which would NEVER happen in America lol. Honestly though the prom was amazing. Thanks to everyone who said I looked pretty haha

Al and I went to Corfe Castle today!! I took loads of pictures. Also that first picture is of my AP exam score, which I got today. 4/5 is one of the best you can get so I'm really happy! Plus it's what universities take so it's a double plus.

I loved seeing the castle but I equally loved that you were able to decorate these shields with chalk drawings and I felt like I was seven again doing them lol. I did a butterfly, a pumpkin, a fish and a flower, behold my creative mind, haha. I don't like taking pictures that much but everyone asks to see whenever I go somewhere so I may as well.

Spoiler

 

Fantastic job with your AP Score! I only know a few people who have received a 5 since it is quite difficult to achieve, and 4 is an amazing score! Congrats! Also, I'm glad to hear you had fun at prom. Although free booze isn't given at prom in America, it just makes it all the more fun to sneak their drunk selves into prom lol.

Were you able to walk within the walls of Corfe Castle or could you only walk around outside of it? I love that they have shields for visitors to decorate. Your clan shield is lit

 

You were able to walk on the inside part, yeah. Some places were blocked off because as you can see it does have some big holes in it xD but it just gives it character.

 

These are pictures from Monteque (???) house and also Lytes Cary which we went to today! The houses were beautiful. I took a lot of pictures of furniture and stuff so I may need to redecorate when I get home haha. Most of my pictures were of the stain glass windows, that is my one true weakness.

At Lytes Cary this three year old girl said she wouldn't go into one of the rooms because she saw the lady who died in there. The picture/portrait of the girl is the daughter of the guy who owned the house. She was hunting and got soaked and got sick I guess. Either way, It was super creepy...

Also I have no idea what any of the Latin stuff says but it was in the church area of the house so I guess they're prayers.

The inside reminds me of a more well lit beasts castle

 

I actually got that feel from it too. When we were going up the stairs it reminded me a lot of when Belle goes up to te dungeon because of the design of where the candles would have gone at that time, how they spiraled. In general some of the decoration too, like the lamp with the man holding up a snake and the dragons and things would have been the "before" when all the Angels were turned to scary things.

 

I'm going home tomorrow! I'm really sad to be leaving. I'm really close to a lot of Al's friends and the past weeks have just been so amazing here, I'm glad I got to experience it.

Hopefully Al will be able to come back to Canada next year! Nonno says, "for 6 weeks, 8 weeks, 6 months" :P


These are the last of my pictures.
