barcelona report

back.
barcelona was amazing!
basically the main idea was to see some art galleries and sketch a little in the day.... then get whiplashed in the eve. even teachers were getting in on the act> especially james who is a complete lightweight. drink so cheaaaaaap.
our room (606 crew) consisted of me, art matt and james waynman. it was pretty nice actually. bathroom not bad and we had a decent sized balcony too.
all the ppl were cool on the trip. the ppl who i met anyway. i only rly knew charley, sophie, james waynman and art matt. but kind of knew emily, megan and egg, and had met a few others before.... but were all pretty close by the end of it. ppl like alex, g, rosie, matty j, luke, ellie, jo and others.
brief run thru:
tuesday> got to barca... went to picasso museum then boat trip where yu could see fishes (kind of) under the boat. and then meal on harbour avec charley, sophie, matt, egg, ellie and jo (usual crew).
weds> dali's pad, wifes house then meal/bars in the square... then back to the 607 posse's room for a brief drink down. (and a dead arm contest with luke.... hmmm.)
thurs> gaudi cathedral/park (actually just a gravel pit) and then got the pizzas in and smuggled some (ok loads.... i mean it was 2 euros fro 6 bottles of san miguel!) drink up to le room where we had a balcony rave in our room and 607.
friday> miro gallery/ cable cars. eve> meal in centre wiv usual crew then went to pirate bar and then a couple of cheesy european clubs. then another balcony rave at 607. sooo wasted.
sat> after a revitalising sesh at maccy d's in the morning (innit) did a spot of shopping in the centre.. got couple of t shirts from spanish h&m. also got this amazing device which yu put in yr mouth and yu can sound like a bird. completely scared the shit out of passers by! then went to le airport and home :(
song of the holiday: N'Sync: Derty Pop!!!!!!!!!
phrase of the holiday: "ermmm actually..." (plus lots of things that egg said)
managed to get presents for the family as usual
mum> big shell and box of milk tray
dad> big bottle of bacardi
jennie> dali lips couch photo holder
cath> shell box
also got soph a present but dont want to say incase she reads before i give obv.
ooo england is rubbish compared with spain (in holiday terms of course). i want soph to come back now. this morning (sunday) i felt quite alone. i always get that feeling when i get back from a college holiday. yr not surrounded constantly by yr friends. instead a lairy little sister thingy thats always in yr face unless she storms up to her room (pretty often). sigh. family.
but i was rly happy tho when i got a call from art matt. me, him, egg and their friend tom went to see shrek 2. was actually quite funny. then we went up to the zone bar for all yu can eat pizza/pasta....and then went down to pav gardens to meet tom bailey and his gf (more shoreham ppl).... where we played pigeon sex. which is actually phone tennis despite the rather derailing name.
decided against a night in shoreham, and came home. with some american hard gums.
the end.
