Best day ever

So today was freaking amazing!

First, college ended early because one of my reasons was cancelled. Well... I wasn't supposed to go home as I had form (homeroom for Americans) , but I had just spent 2 hours in the college IT suite waiting for the class that was cancelled, I didn't want to spend another 2 hours just for form.

So I got home and my package had arrived from when I ordered some American food. I can't remember if I blogged about it in the blogpost done on the day I ordered them, last Friday. But yeah, they arrived. I got some Lucky Charms, Nerds, Red Vines and a milk chocolate Hershey's bar.

The Lucky Charms were delicious, my mum told me she'd had them before and also loved them. Lucky Charms are cereal if you're unaware. The plain bits are similar to Cheerios which we have here in the UK, don't know about in America. But they're mixed with marshmallows. If I was American I know this would be my breakfast every morning!

The Nerds were also great. They're made by the Wonka company (Wonka as in Willy Wonka). They're basically 2 sets of candy in one box, both different flavors. They were a yummy fruity flavor and I really liked them.

The Red Vines...were interesting. I only got them because I'm a huge fan of Team Starkid on YouTube and if you've seen their play "A Very Potter Sequel" you'll know they used Red Vines in it. This really helped promote the candy as obviously Starkid has millions of fans. But yeah, I had hear before from someone non-American that they tasted like toothpaste. Needles to say, this was very true. They also smelled of toothpaste the minute I opened the packaging. But as I ate more of them this faded a bit and I actually quite like them. I've saved some for tomorrow. They're great as one tray has a lot in them so they last a while.

Finally, the Hershey's bar was also really good. Wow, Americans just have great food. I had heard from some English people who had tried them before and they said that they didn't like it. But I did! I mean it was no Cadbury chocolate, as we have here in the UK, but still it was tasty. It smelled and tasted like the kind of chocolate that's in advent calendars you get at Christmas.

I did a video of me taste testing and reacting to these foods. Check it out on my YouTube: youtube.com/abbieissoweirdlike 

Anyway, the day got even better a couple of hours later when my check arrived in the post for £1250 for the car crash I was in the other month. Yay! Getting my iPhone 5 next week then, woo! I'm super excited.

After this, I saw on YouTube that Starkid had uploaded a new video last night for the cast announcements for their new play, Twisted. Can't wait for it to be done and up on YouTube. But obviously that's not going to be for ages haha! I can't believe they added some new members to their team as well, exciting but also quite sad. Although, I was SUPER excited to hear Robert Manion was joining them. He used to be their fan and now he's up with them! So cool.

Anyway, I pretty much just chilled outfit the rest of the day. Get a sleep in tomorrow because my first lesson at college isn't until 11:15 on Fridays. The on Saturday I have a hairdressers appointment because I asked my mum to make an appointment for me today. So that's at 10:45am Saturday morning. I'm getting my roots dyed because they've gone back gingery whereas the rest of my hair is still dyed brown and it looks stupid with the roots being a different colour. I'm also getting it cut a little bit. I want the length to stay the same and everything, I just want a middle parting instead of side. Pushing my fringe to the side is always so annoying. So I'm excited to get it done at last!

I also started reading "Ender's Game" by Orison Scott Card today. It was pretty confusing in the first chapter but I'm getting it a bit more now. I'm reading it by publication date, not by the chronological order. I know people all have their own way of reading the books. There's just so freaking many!

Anyway, going to have lie down and sleep soon. Bye!
