Walking in a winter wonderland.

So today was a fun one. Since the arrival of the snow (and after our week off school because of it) everyday seems to be a good one. Today one of my friends had to film a few shots for her media project; to make a music video. This excited us to know end. So we ventured, out into the ice and glistening snow to a secluded spot behind the sixth form block, a good long patch of grass that was covered by a foot of snow.

Now of course it didn't start off as a very productive outing as we almost ended up reinacting the 'last christmas' video whilst my friend was planning her shots, in fact a few verses o the song may have been sung whilst we skipped about... There's something about the snow that seriously reverts you to being about seven years old. So after prancing around like idiots, making snow angels (well one of us) and singing to our hearts content the shooting began.

The story of the music video is a classic boy meets girl, they have fight, they kiss and make up. The shooting went well and it looks really cute all in all : ') I can't wait to see it fully finished.

I"m feeling so in the christmas mood although I really need to get all my presents bought! (I never know what to get people!) In the mean time here's a cheesy christmas song to tide you over....

Power Walk Baby, Power Walk!

A bonding experience. That is how a brutal 7 mile walk was sold to us - a chance to get to know our tutor groups and talk to some new people as we traipsed through the wilderness. I am not a walker - nor have I ever been a walker - so needless to say I was not looking forward to this. In anticipation for the trek I bought blister plasters, memory foam and foot wipes (I felt very prepared) . 

For some reason before we got on the buses to take us to our starting point I felt reading to run a marathon or in the words I gleefully exclaimed whilst practically jogging in place "I could climb a mountain!" - Why do I say these things? This enthusiasm lasted a while - we stepped off the coach, abandoned the walking in tutor groups idea and headed on route. My feet were coping well with the foot protection I had purchased and I was still on my little high - all was well.

However after a brief lunch break in a field I found myself walking with one of my friends but also between lover boy and D the determined which was awkward to say the least....

L.B - "So are your feet ok?"

D - "Hey! I've all ready asked her that"

L.B - "Well maybe she'll give me a different answer!"

After an hour of that I really was starting to feel the pain of walking on uneven ground in the middle of a forest whilst having two boys offering to carry me (Once again I feel nothing but guilt about these two!) . 

The final stretch brought us to another filed where we had to wait an hour for the bus to come and collect us - in the mean time I went to sleep using my friend as a pillow. Bonding? - it was never going to happen.
