So today was pretty cool. Didn't have to go in to PDSA so I slept in for a bit. Then I went to the Arts Centre to get a ticket for Fighting With Wire for Emma (who has decided she wants to go after I got tickets for other people... "Back again, lulz!" And OMGZ who is supporting them? Only....ASIWYFA! who are immense live, and I saw them last month :) Unfortunately so are Strictly Hardcore Dancing a.k.a. The Worst Band In Northern Ireland, but it'll give me a chance to see if they've improved any in the last three months.
I went to see a friend of mine as he started up an open air art scheme in the centre of Lisburn...sunny, but freezing =/ Ended up being a coffee wench for 20 minutes, trailing back and forth because my relatives' coffees needed a wee bit more sugar/milk/coffee etc. then went home for lunch.
After that, went to the Amnesty meeting where I found, along with 5-6 other people, the door locked and the group's leader half an hour away...so we went for coffee, got it to go (different coffee shop allegiances, you see) and stood outside the door like hobos. Then when we got in, we learnt how to make origami swans for the action that's in a few weeks' time...it took me a while but I've got paper home with me so I'm going to make more while watching Doctor Who which is on in like half an hour XD
On a whim I got my dad a stone paperweight that's carved in the shape of a little grey cat from the Oxfam shop, because it reminded me of Winnie...he loves it. Which is a good thing. I also got some Fair Trade chocolate to hide in my room to snaffle In Case Of Starvation...good craic.
