10 'Best Things' of 2009

This I think has been a really good year which and these arn't only the best things but the things I am proud of and really happy with. (These are not in order of best to OK).

1). Getting my GCSE Exam result and how good they were as I really didn't think that they were going to be good at all.

2). Finishing High School and Starting College as not staying in 6th form I now know was a really good idea to get away and start in a new place.

3). Youth Weekend away with my church youth club going to the beach everyday and on the last going early swimming, very cold but lovely and refreshing.

4).Just hanging out with my friends in the summer. It was good just because I didn't do much this summer and just going out with friends was really good and didn't really do before.

5). Getting Guitar Hero for my birthday and playing it on my brothers Xbox 360, Best game I have ever got.

6). Wow on the Water Front during the summer - wasn't really good while I was there but thinking back at it, it was brilliant.

7).Going to my old church BBQ - just seeing old friends and going to around what seemed to
the secret garden and topping it of having really really nice weather.

8)Having my High School Prom and wearing a tuxedo which I couldn't breath in, having really good food at the Hilton and having a good time just in all.

9). Applying for jobs, haven't got any but it was just a really good experience to do it.

10). Having a lot more freedom this year, going into town a lot on my own and going into Cardiff Bay just new experiences.

Have a really happy new year and hope you have an even more better year in 2010.

Another Step for Freedom.

Last Thursday, I finally took a stand as I am now 16 and also got my free Bus pass allowing me to go anywhere on a bus in wales for FREE (all I need to do now is remember main bus roues). For the first time ever I went into Cardiff City Centre by myself, no annoying brothers, no mum dragging you into shops not normally met my men and telling you what to buy and what not to (not going with friends as well lets you get things done much quicker).

I went in to get a few bits and pieces spending around about £20 pound on one game, a mothers day card £7 headphones, a present for a friend and a simply shake for myself (treat) just shows who much £20 goes (not very far). Down side to it is that in town after school when finished getting home takes three times as long.

Then in youth getting informed by a friend that you can spend another £5 on top of 20 and get
  • 2 tops
  • 1 pair of shoes
  • 1 belt
  • 1 pair of shorts
  • 1 pair of sun glasses
  • and lunch for two people

This shows that my friend Thomas is the ultimate shopper and knows where to buy things very cheap or Primark is the cheapest shop in the world.
