Today was the day of The Higher Options in the RDS. I woke up at 5.30am and got ready, I actually found it sickening putting make-up so early in the morning. I went downstairs and made myself some breakfast to wake myself up fully. It was coming up 6.50am when Amanda's dad was outside. I said my goodbyes and grabbed my coat and bag and made sure I had my sheets and map and some pens and most important my lunch and money.
We set off and Amanda told me that Rachel wasn't going because she had a sore throat. Her dad drove us to the bus stop outside Salesian's and we waited in the car until we saw the bus. A 67X bus came so Amanda's dad got out to ask him about where he was going and he wasn't going where we wanted to go so he drove us to the bus stop outside Crodaun and there was some people there that we knew so we got out and stood there with them. The bus came about 5 minutes later and we used our passes and we were grand and got a seat at the back.
By the time we got to the village the bus was packed. Alex, Aoife Byrne and Niamh O'Reilly got on at Xtra vision but the bus was so packed, that me and Amanda were sitting at the back of the bus and the others were standing up where the prams go. So we just had to wait until we got off the bus at Palmerstown. We got off at about 7.45 and waited outside a newsagents and at about 8.10am we got on an 18 bus and we went upstairs and got comfy because it was a long drive to the RDS.
We took some pictures and were talking and having fun and laughing and then some guys got on the bus who were going to school but it was really funny because they were messing behind us. Me and Amanda couldn't stop laughing because she was nervous and I was laughing at her. The guys had a lighter and were lighting the rubber on the windows and then fanning it out and then were talking about burning the end of some girls hair and I freaked out because they were right behind me. Niamh got talking to a group of girls in front of us and they were saying that they were getting off at the RDS too so we decided just to follow them. As we were getting off, 1 guy pushed his friend forward so he bashed into Aoife really hard, everyone on the bus laughed and the guy nearly knocked the other one out, he was so angry :L
We walked over and we were diverted to another place and got a free pen on the way off Spin 103.8. We found Mr. Corcoran and he gave us our wristbands and marked us present and we went in. We got some free stuff when we went in as well. Me and Amanda went off and looked at many different stands and spoke to loads of colleges and we got a good idea of where we want to go. We had about 3 bags full of books that the spokesperson gave us. It was about 12.30 when we had to meet up with Mr. Corcoran again so he could mark us present and then we could leave if we wanted to. We met up with Alex, Aoife and Niamh and set off to the bus stop with our libraries on our backs. :L
We got to the bus stop and just missed a bus and then when another one came about 20 minutes it was packed so we decided to walk down to another bus stop and then we got on it and set off for town. When we got off we decided to go to get some food. Alex and Amanda wanted to go to Eddie rockets and Me, Aoife and Niamh wanted to get a McDonald's sow e went our separate ways. While we were walking to McDonald's we saw Jessica Dennehy and I thought she was going to come over and say something but she just looked at me and walked past while saying "freak" I could take that, just shook it off and continued walking.
I got a Happy Meal and we all went upstairs and sat down to eat. When we were done we walked back up to Eddie Rockets but Alex and Aoife were talking and Aoife told her that her and Niamh were heading off home so I went into Eddie Rockets and joined Amanda and Alex.
We were there for about 30 minutes and then we set off for Penny's because Amanda wanted to get some things and I got some false nails; really pretty ones too. We then went into other shops and just had fun and messed but it was so tiring walking around with the books with us. It was coming up to about 4.30 so we made the decision to walk to the bus stop and go home. We went over and the bus wasn't for ages so we went into Claire's and I got 3 pairs of them clip on ear cuff's which i wanted for ages. They are so pretty and so easy to use. We went into Abrakebabra and sat down there for a few minutes and then the bus came so we went over and it was packed. The 3 of us were sitting in 3 different seats but close to one another.
All was good we were chatting away and laughing and a few other people we knew were sitting a few rows behind us. At one point I could not stop laughing and Alex and Amanda were the same and then my phone was ringing but I didn't know it was my phone and I had like a blonde moment where I went "What is that noise?.......OOOOOOOH it's my phone!" Alex and Amanda were in stitches laughing at me because they said I was like 1 of them blonde bimbo's in an American movie.
When we were in Lucan I think I don't know what I said but Amanda started laughing but the funny thing about that was that she was drinking some fizzy drink and when she laughed, so spat all over this man ready a newspaper. He was not happy and wiped his arm in disgust. Amanda was so shocked, Alex started laughing and I couldn't look at her in case I laughed to an extreme where I would spit on him too. Amanda apologized to him and then a few minutes later she apologized again and he said "Doesn't make it better, you saying sorry twice" . I thought that was quite rude but then again she did spit all over him :L I would be mortifies if it was me but it was funny to look at it.
Me and Amanda got off the bus at Tesco and Alex stayed on until she got to Aldi, me and Amanda just walked home because we were knackered. I think when I got home I fell asleep on the sofa and slept for 2 hours which I never do. I usually have to be in a dark place and for it to be night time but I was just so wrecked. It was a good day anyway.
