Sorry peeps but I’m gonna start being a proper Nicky from big brother and complain about air conditioning! It’s like 15 degrees Celsius outside so it’s already beyond comprehensible freezing, so what do they do in work? Open the bleedin window and the air conditioning at the same time. It’s like being back home, with my mums husband, who, when it was snowing heavily, refused to put any sort of heating on and had the windows open AND tried to make me look like I was the crazy one for having to wear my coat indoors, especially whilst I was eating my tea, seriously, its no wonder I am how I am.
Also Cody sent me an e-mail and said if I put down on here that he was a bummer, then he would shit all over me, I replied, of course you would shit all over me, that’s what happens to gay boys, they loose the elasticity in their anus’ and therefore do not have any control over this bodily function, hence the need for butt plugs, ah Cody, bless him. Be comfortable with who you are, there is no shame in it!!!!!!!!!!!!! (By the way I have to quickly put a disclaimer here, that Cody has never told me that he is gay, nor is probably likely to, these are just the thoughts and opinions of little old me)
Oh yeah, by the way I will have to keep putting disclaimers, I have managed to get hold of an English copy of Cosmopolitan, in the old English court there, I know I should be reading in Spanish, but this was for the 5-6 hour coach journey to Madrid, so I think I should be forgiven. Anyway there was an article in there about blogs, and it was saying about the law of blogging about work as some people can get fired, especially one man who called his boss a sandal wearing bastard, although I think that his boss should have seen the funny side of this, as I did! So I’m going to have to go back over my blog and change a shit load of people’s names. Not going to change the names of my friends though, although I might have to delete things that have happened. Oops. Or I will have to write disclaimers like the one above, fookin hell, who knew an online diary could cause so much trouble, and as I always seem to be in trouble, it would probably happen to me.
Although, I don’t think anyone actually reads this, no one leaves comments, or sends me e-mails to say they have read it. And there are some people out there whose blogs get read by hundreds and I dunno how they do it as some of them are on the same site as me and in all honesty prob not as interesting as mine, as to be honest, it has just dawned on me that I have a crazy life, and crazy things always happen to me. That’s exactly what my housemate said yesterday to me about my stories of Madrid; I didn’t think anything of my trip until she pointed out that in all her 34 years of living in Spain, she has never come across any of the experiences I have. So I dunno what on earth is wrong with me, I realise I am the biggest loser going but I don’t see why people have a problem with this or have to interfere, I’m quite happy as I am. Hmph.
Anyway, getting back to my trip in Madrid. Had a ball, and it was nice to go to Leanne’s for a change, as she always comes to mine. I almost missed the bus on the way there. I was planning to walk but it was half 11 and my coach was at 12:15, so it normally takes 45 mins at the most to walk, but was thinking it would have been even longer with my suitcase so I got a taxi. Well in all my life, normally in a taxi I would get there in like 15 mins, so then in my mind I was thinking I would have time to get something to eat, as I had had no actual breakfast, but lo and behold, Castellón knew Laura was coming. There was bleedin traffic everywhere; the whole city was at a standstill. It was a 5-day fiesta I suppose, people were travelling to other places. So it took me like 45 mins to get to the train station and when I got there the doors were just about to close, but there was someone else who was late as well and they were ahead of me so they stopped the coach. So gets on the coach and I find my seat…
I am not happy. I am seriously going to put in a strong worded letter to auto res to suggest that the next time I buy a ticket they do a background check on the person who will be sitting next to me. I mean, in all my life, I dunno which time I would say was the most traumatising, but this one defo goes on the list. He was dead fat, with an I-dunno-what kind of fashion sense, for a start, and he had a white baseball cap, that was absolutely filthy that it wasn’t white no more. And he still had a bum fluff moustache that looked like he had never shaved it since it grew in puberty, but in all honesty the man looked like he was in his 30’s so he really should have known better. Now I hope after I write this that it doesn’t turn out that this man is disabled, as at one point I did think that. For the purposes of this blog, lets call him…Gary. Anyway, he sat there the entire 5 and a half hour journey and just stared and smiled at me with dreamy eyes. I, on the other hand, turned my attention towards a heat magazine that my Pauli had so kindly brought me and put my music on to try and block everything out.
We ended up stopping at a service station, and can I just mention that there really isn’t anything between Castellón and Madrid, just baron land. And this service station looked a bit of a local service station, for local people, if you get what I mean. Seriously, inbred really wasn’t the word. And since there is nothing between Madrid and Castellón and this service station was exactly half way between the two, where on earth did people travel from? Hmm, turning into a bit of a horror movie me thinks. So I had a tortilla butty, gonna miss those to death when I leave here, but I didn’t have a can a can’t ha ha ha! Anyway we was told half an hour, and after I had eaten and smoked myself stupid made my way back to the coach, but coach driver was no where to be seen (see, horror movie starting already) but I’m, way too clever to wander off on my own “to try to be the hero and find the driver, then be a silly bitch and get myself killed, etc” and also by staying in a large group where we was supposed to, we beat the horror movie curse hurrah! Anyway the coach driver turns up 15 mins late, tsk, although I can’t complain.
So board the coach, and I dunno what on earth Gary had been eating or doing, as on the second leg of our journey, he took his cap off, that’s right he removed it, he placed it over his, what would be known as a “crotch area”, then stuck his hand under his cap, and well, there was movement shall we say, so I will leave it up tour own imaginations for the ending of that story.
Eventually get to Madrid, and Gary, the thick twat, went and left his coat on the coach but no way was I telling him he should have used it instead of his baseball fookin cap.
Got to Leanne’s house and she cooked me well nice food! Fajitas, sin sour cream, as apparently they don’t do it in Spain (get on to that story later). Then we went out, as I had to meet some Madrileño friends of mine that I did a language exchange with in my first year.
I wasn’t altogether impressed with Luís, he has changed, and put it this way I don’t think he actually likes girls anymore, as when he was in Manchester, he brought everyone a present back, but I got more than everyone else as I was his favourite person, and back then I did think he might have liked me a bit too much, but now I realise that he was grooming me. Clearly grooming me to be his fag hag. Silvia though, although she spoke really slow English, it turns out that she speaks really slow Spanish too, better for me as then I can understand easier, but she is actually quite pretty in a natural way, I never realised it before, as my attention has always been focused on her cross-eyes. Anyway we had a few drinks with her, and Luís decides to get off in the middle and go meet some friends of his, and I wasn’t invited! I travel all this way to stand and watch him hold his fag like an actual fag, and then he swans off with his friends when I haven’t seen him for 2 years! The cheeky twat. Sylvia was really nice though, it’s a shame I didn’t get to see more of her, but I invited her to Castellón (woo big thrill there Silvia) but then she was like no I’ll come to Italy! Although, by the way peeps, if any of you wanna visit me in Italy, free accommodation is just not gonna happen, I have to share an actual bedroom and go to uni on Saturdays! Er, hello? Human rights violation!
So she said she defo wants to come back to Salford, the poor girl, she really doesn’t understand, so I said when I get my house in 4th year she can come and stay there with me.
Anyway Sylvia went and then me and Leanne danced the night away, we went somewhere that played proper cheese, like total eclipse of the heart, which I was loving as loads of girls were proper trying to sing along, but since they was Spanish their lips were moving but not in time to the words, but they must just think this is how English people speak as they watch everything dubbed, dubbing does my head reet in. Anyway Leanne got proper harassed by all the men, and then some French boy was trying to harass me, and although he was good looking his friend was a reet perv, proper grabbing Leanne, so for her sake I moved away from the French. Also there was a really fit boy who I was trying to dance near but he looked terrified. Ah well. I do think the English men should take a leaf out of the Europeans book though, they actually don’t give a shit if they get rejected, they will still give it a good go though, English boys are too much hard work. Although, I have to say English boys have a lot more somewhere else, if you get me…..
Anyway, we was in the met station and there was a group, of what I can only describe as adolescents, on the opposite platform, and the filthy mouth they had on them! Chupa me rubia, which means suck my dick Blondie. So I was like my name isn’t Blondie, and then I can remember what they was saying or what I said (as per, was a little worse for the wear) but then they was like “we are going to kill you” “don’t be ridiculous” I replied (lol) but then they was like we are actually going to follow you to kill you. Erm ok, hopefully they will learn they can’t force girls to do things they don’t want. Anyway as we got on the met they were saying suck it to me again, bless them, I will give it to t hem for trying.
Anyway, Friday day was absolutely wasted as we was in bed all day sleeping, and trying not to have a hangover, although Leanne went to bed later than me, as she was having a full beast of a meal. Friday night came and this was the best part of my trip. WE WENT TO SEE BORAT!!!! There is an English cinema in Madrid as I didn’t want to go and see it in Spanish, part of the joke is his accent so the dubbing would have been shit, even though I would have understood, but still… And oh my god, it was the funniest thing since sliced pan de moulde without any crusts. Although some of it is clearly set up, like the prostitute and going to the Jew house, and Pamela Anderson was in on the joke, but her security and entourage weren’t, although I have to say her security were not the best and if I were her I would be worried, as he managed to get her outside in the car park on her own, while the security were lagging behind. But since I have seen this film I have been quoting to fook out of it, so expect this a lot when I’m home for Xmas, high five-NOT! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha lol.
Anyway after this me and Leanne had a bit of a dander around Madrid looking at the crimbo lights, and oh my god people, I have a bit of a thing for policemen anyway, more than firemen, I think it is their handcuffs and truncheons….. and me and my friend Natalie Baird (hi!)watch crimewatch religiously and any kind of true life crime programme to watch for fit policemen, and I have to say I am missing dearly PC Raj Persuad from crimewatch, he was looking quite fit before I left L Anyway, if you want a policeman- go to Madrid. In all my life, I have never seen so many fit policemen in one place. Castellón has a few, but its over between me and Victor L anyway I don’t know what the fook was going on, but there was all these police cars and then there was the most beautiful man I have ever seen, ever. All dark hair and muscles, seriously wouldn’t mind him manhandling me in the back of a police car!!! But he was far too busy to notice me. So we was watching them for a bit, and oh my god peeps, he started running!!! Anyway he eventually got into a car L and then about ten cars and motorbikes started driving all flashing lights and sirens but in the middle of all these cars was like a normal person in a normal car, they was escorting it somewhere. We have since been told that they was probably escorting a member of the secret police, but, way to go to keep them secret, they didn’t at all look conspicuous.
So we was having a little dander, and it was actually freezing so Leanne wanted a scarf we found this little shop, but they clearly didn’t have what Leanne was looking for, then the man came danderin over and was chatting to us, asking where we was from, just generally being slightly nosey. Anyway, they didn’t really have what Leanne was looking for so he said to us to go back tomorrow, as he will have more stock as today was a fiesta he is pretty much sold out, so we was like ok we will come tomorrow and then Leanne went to give the scarf that she was trying on back to him, but he was like, no it’s a present for you as long as you come back tomorrow and buy something else, so we was like of course we will comeback tomorrow-NOT, high five!
Anyway we ended up going for something to eat, but there was like a 15 min wait for a table, so we ordered a sangria while we waited, but the cheeky bastards kept letting the Spaniards in in front of us, we eventually got a table, but whatever we ordered they didn’t seem to have in. So we ended up with tortilla and calamari, but by this time I was knackered, so I wasn’t in the mood for food. Anyway, we get the bill and they didn’t charge us for the sangria that we drank whilst we were waiting, too fookin right they didn’t. So we quickly paid up and left. So a free scarf and a free drink, in one day, not too shabby, eh.
Anyway, on the Saturday…I WENT TO PRIMARK!!! In truth it wasn’t as good as I was hoping, they didn’t seem to have any nice clothes, and whenever I have seen Leanne wearing nice clothes she always assures me they are from Primark. But alas I could not find anything, so I ended up getting myself some silky nightie things, and Leanne called me a dirty bitch, but they wasn’t even slutty or anything, they was pretty though.
After my disappointing Primark trip, we went for some food. After debating between subway (oh my god they have a subway, I just love meatballs) and a Chinese, I decided on Chinese, as I think that is one of the foods I have missed the most, and Leanne assured me it was nice. Well in all my life, we went to the salad bar, they had prawn or some sort of shrimp, I cannot actually tell the difference, but the prawns were slightly bad peeps. When I ripped off the head, it made this kind of fart sound and all this liquid poured out. Hmmm delicioso-NOT. So after deciding to swiftly leave the salad to one side and get the main meal, big mistake, we should have left there and then and refused to pay for anything, but I though, ok so they made a mistake with the prawns. The food was actually disgusting too. And the thing is in the Chinese all you can eats in Manchester, they have labels as to what food is what, but this one didn’t, so I didn’t fancy eating anything that I didn’t know what it was. So I was sensible and stuck to noodle and rice things, still minged though. And, I dared Leanne to eat a snail, as everyone eats them over here. And do you know what peeps, she did! And before she ate it she was like, look at its feelers there Laura. Think I will give the snails a miss. Then Leanne couldn’t eat, what we really hoped was a kind of meat that we would eat in the western world, but we are not actually sure what it was, so we decided on pudding, as what could possibly go wrong with jelly and ice cream?
Well we was in the queue for absolutely ages and then we seen why. Some little fat kid had been at it with the ice cream hadn’t he, huge mountainous pile of ice cream. So he comes away and starts with the can of squirty cream. Well it’s acceptable for kids to go overboard with the squirty cream, as they just love to squirt really. But this kid just carried on, and carried on and carried on. Then he stopped for a second and we was thinking thank god. He stood, looked, and then decided he didn’t have enough, and continued. Leanne was like “oh my god where on earth are that kids parents?” And then I looked over and was like “there”. There was just this tiny fat woman hunched over the ice cream, proper scooping out as much as she could. Well me and Leanne absolutely pissed ourselves laughing. Really it is no wonder the kid was fat, the whole family was fat and they didn’t even control the amount of shit that he was eating. And eventually when it came to my turn to get the ice cream, surprise surprise no bleedin strawberry left, the little bugger had had it all. AND when I need the squirty cream, he had actually taken it to the table with him and left the first bottle that he was using, which incidentally was empty, for me to use and all this runny stuff came out, so Laura was not amused.
After the shopping centre we went to the good old English court there to get some more stuff for fajitas. I tried to get sour cream, but it seriously wasn’t going to happen. I actually asked a man where the sour cream was, but that was a mistake. I didn’t know the actual word for sour cream, but I told him that this is a literal translation, but where is the nata agria. Well, he just looked at me and said sorry I don’t speak English! Erm, for a start it wasn’t English. Then he asked this other woman that worked there if she spoke English and she was like no, then Leanne later informed me that the woman was walking off calling us wankers. Snidey cow, get a real job, instead of walking round a supermarket all bleedin day. Anyway, there was some sour cream in a jar, but it was like made by Doritos or something and it had onion, but I dunno, it just didn’t look like the sour cream that I know and love, so I showed this to the man and asked where I could get some without onion, and he just kept repeating to me that if there wasn’t any without onion, then they had ran out, I was trying to explain exactly what I wanted and he just kept repeatedly talking over me. So I lost my temper and walked around the supermarket swearing, oops, but he knew exactly what I wanted but couldn’t be bothered. And they seriously need to crack a smile in that place as if they leave it any longer their faces are going to break.
So Saturday night, we ended up going out to some place, that wasn’t altogether great, but it wasn’t terrible. And oh my god in the dance room, there were half naked men wandering around, who were meant to be dancers, but they really were only there to look pretty, and my god pretty they did look. And this place was a non-smoking place except on the 7th floor, but I could be arsed going up there could I, and also there were loads of people smoking, so Leanne just said to me just smoke here, everyone is doing it, so was smoking away to myself, and some cheap nasty little tart comes over to me started having a go at me saying “you can’t smoke in here, it’s only on the 7th floor” so I thought if I pretended to be stupid and not understand her, then she would go away, but she carried on with her little nasty self, so in the end I was like oh sorry but I’ve nearly finished it now anyway, and then she was like “me da igual si fumas”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEEEErrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr you cheeky bitch, do you wanna wind your neck in, if it doesn’t bother you that I’m smoking why on earth are you telling me, cheeky cow. And oh my god you should have seen the fookin state of her. Cheap and nasty all over. Her hair was frizzy to fook and a horrible dirty colour, she was trying to be blonde, but we all know that there is only one blonde that reign’s supreme!!! And I’m a natural blonde, so she was prob jealous because of that, silly bitch. And she had the nastiest clothes on ever. Her top was some nasty market imitation leopard print thing that you tell was meant to be tight, but was baggy and ill fitting. And don’t even get me started on the shoes that were clumpy and huge. And I notice she didn’t tell any of the Spanish people there to stop smoking and there were loads of people.
Anyhoo, ended up meeting two lads from Castellón, well Benicassim, but you know, tomato, tomato. I give them my phone number, but I’m not hopeful that they will call, it would be cool if they did though, as how random was that.
Felt like shit the next day, but had to get up early as my coach was at 3 and it was quite away away from Leanne’s house, and once again I nearly missed the fookin coach, I got there by the skin of my teeth, it was actually about to pull, out, and I was panickin to fook, there was a man in the station who worked there, instead of stopping the bus driver from leavin, he was mitherin me for my ticket, of all things, it seriously is just because I’m foreign you know, they can be quite racist. Eventually I get on the coach, driver not impressed with me, everyone silent and staring at me as I walk down the aisle. I went to find my seat, but you know when you have been running and you can’t see? Well, I sat in the wrong place and the man poked me, and then tapped his watch and he was like “what time do you call this its five past 3” hmm all of a sudden I realised I was in the wrong seat and moved. Was sat next to an old lady, which as it turns out wasn’t too bad and we was chatting away as she was nearly late too, and it turns out she lives right near me, we did say we were going to meet up but we never ended up swapping numbers. Anyway the traffic was really bad and the driver made an announcement that we would be arriving in Castellón later than scheduled, but even though I was five mins late, and that prob didn’t make a difference, and the traffic was bad, when he said we was going to be late, everyone just turned round and stared at me. Seriously, peeps on the coach, get over it.
Oh my god peeps, I’m sorry I wrote loads, but I haven’t written here for like five or six days so obviously loads has happened. And I still haven’t told you about the whole Sonia and Luís situation, me thinks she is going to dump him, me and my sister screaming at each other down e-mails as she is an interfering bitch and she is trying to ruin things for me as she is jealous, as where is her exotic working location? Blackpool, and she is trying to compare that with my moving abroad, I do not think so, you cow, and also I need to tell you about my discovery of churritas, my god they are everywhere, and capture the taste of Christmas, no word of a lie, and I need to tell you all about my first ever Christmas tree, it’s a disaster, but in a hilarious way! But will have to actually leave that until tomorrow, as you are all probably bored and it’s taken me two days to write this as it is! But just to finish I will point out that I have actually written that much, its like the length of a mini dissertation. So imagine if this has taken me two days to write, my actual dissertation should be a doddle (“~) hopefully!
But I would also like to add that this is a record for my blog, it’s the longest blog I have written, as you might now realise, I bet its probably taken you hours to read this, but hey it’s cheaper than a book, and if you pass this link round to every single person you know and get them to read it, so I have a cult following, then when my book is published, and I’m mega rich, I will buy a huge house in the Bahamas and also a private jet, with my own private pilot, so you can all use this house, jet and pilot whenever you want!
Random word of the day: quebrantahuesos = bearded vulture
Total word count of the day: 4774 words, oops, sorry
