okay soo it took me awhile to write about everything that happened.. all i can say is sheffield is AMAZING. im so in love.. its gorgeous.. and pretty and just awesome.. and i cant wait to move over.. fair warning, this will be long....
what makes Sheffield a city, the Catherdrial in city centre my flight over was okay.. slept some.. watched i, robot (eh it was okay...) and the food was decent.. my flight came in about a half hour early, got grilled about WHY i was in england and WHY i wasnt visiting my granddad and just all this bullshit. i had to explain to the guy exactly WHAT pissnet was.. just bullshit. but i got through and finally got to see mike after almost 12 hours (including time diffrence) on a plane and 4 months without him. god it felt so good to kiss and hold him again.. hes so cute he stills gets nervous when he sees me.. god... 
me on the train from manchester to sheffield about 8am gst when i got in it was PITCH black out still (considering it was almost 7am HIS time) and the sun was coming up when we caught the train (which took some time since someone forgot which way to go :p). the sun was shining and it was sooooo bright and wonderful. i got to see the northern country side and everything. i wish i had gotten some pictures, but a) i was too busy just glowing to be back with mike and b)it was too bright to get any pictures of green rolling hills with sheep. the weather was a bit brisk (i had to finally put my coat on when i got into sheffield train station) but still comparable to ny.. 
the view from the middle of industry st we took a taxi to his house (and on the way saw a robbie williams poster!!! @#!$!@$#%!@#$% and informed mike he HAS to go to a show with me whether he likes it or not. lol) and then i was THERE. it was surreal to be there at first and just wow.. i still dont think i took it all in.. but the moment i stepped in through the door i smelt pot. lol. ben was the only one in and had done a wake and bake. ben made us all some tea (!!!) and mike brought my suitcase upstairs. i gave him his chess set - which he really liked - and shanged my clothes since id been in mine forever. hugged and kissed mike some more.. and followed him back down stairs. i forgot how narrow the stairs are there.. thats going to take some time to get used to them. anyways we had some tea with ben and mike showed me the house.. the front room really is loaded with james crap. 
city center.. couldnt tell you WHERE this is though :\ well when i was unpacking i realized i forgot my bath towels (!!) so we had to go into town and get me some towels from primark.. and i got to take the tram for the first time and walk DOWN this huge hill that surrounds his area.. we're on the tram and mike asks me if i want something to eat.. like kfc or pizza hut.. i look at him dead on and tell him i didnt just fly 3000 miles just to eat something i can get back home.. we find me some towels (which will be the towels i use when im at his place so they stayed there) and decide to go near where he works and meadowhall to get some drinks and dinner. we actually ate at a american themed restraunt which wasnt too bad. reminded me a lot of fridays (which they also have there) and just overall nice. wasnt bad for imitation american food. which why anyone would want to imitate it is beyond me, but thats alright. we then bought movie tickets to see alfie (i wanted to see bad santa but that wasnt playing till late and we didnt know if anyone wanted to meet up or something). all i can say is the cinema there RULES.. they have FULL bars in them!! holy fuck thats cool. anyways we had some time to kill so we went to this generic pub (!!) and had two pints. my ass got drunk. off two pints of beer. gah. mike thought it was humourours. i did not. :P anyways alfie was good i liked it. mike is VERY lucky im here to see bridgette jones sequel. otherwise hed be stuck sitting through that 
fireworks from guy fawkes night. unfortunately girls aloud were not set ablaze as well. 
da sex0r eating a toffee apple... so the next day is friday. we get up late and head to town for some foodage at the pub mike is boycotting for carding josh, and the food wasnt half bad, and to the fireworks display by the hallamfm arena (which is right next door to where mike works). i was privilaged enough to enjoy the entertainment of girls aloud. lip synching anyone?? oh wells. the fire works ruled and we had candy floss, toffee apples and spaceships. the fire works were awesome and synched to music. it was such a great time. 
mmmm5%beeergetskerriwaaaaaaaaaytooodrunk after the fireworks we took the tram back in and stopped at mikes fave place to pop in for a drink after work. ms lightweight over here, got drunk (and REALLY drunk this time - i almost got sick, but dont let mike know) off another two pints. i was literally stumbling to the bus stop and mike was pretty stern with me saying he wasnt taking care of me if i got sick. i think he was mad i was tipsy in a place he frequents after work : well saturday we were supposed to go hiking but didnt stumble out of bed until about 3pm. ;) decided to go up to meadowhall instead because mike needed to get his mum a birthday card and a small gift to open (his big one was paying off the vet bill for gem). i ate yorkshire pudding for the first time (picture of which is on mikes camera phone!) and had buttons and was just in heaven. hehehe. we then went out for drinks with josh (!!see the previous post!!) and watched tottenham vs someone else. tottenham lost and i didnt get tooo tipsy. i think i had three beers and was a lil loud walking home. we then went home and got trashed. and baked bread. and when josh went to bed, did things you shouldnt do in a kitchen. ahh now its sunday. and my last day :( we woke up kinda late and had to meet sarah and richard for drinks before meeting mikes mum. i had two pints, and didnt get drunk (woo go me!!) and discussed things and had a grand old time. richard is just awesome. and out there and very cool. hes quite complimentary to sarah - who is sooo pretty. got a taxi to get some chips and to get to his mums place. i met EVERYONE. Mum, Sam, Andy, and Jennie (who was so shy she decided to plant herself). its still very overwhemling and im still trying to take it all in, but yeah his mum rocks (who texted mike after we left saying to hold onto me TIGHTLY!!!) and she LOVED the cookie jar. cookies were already in it before we left for the pub and jennie made herself welcome to them (in which gina laughed and said the next time i see the jar, shell have it glued back together). i also met gem, but in advertently. i went to go to the loo and she was coward behind the door. so i had to pee with a shaking dog. who is very cute and adorable. oh before the pub i bough about $40 in cadburys chocolate. mike, his mum and sister laughed but you just dont understand until you are denied the greatness that is cadburys 
till next time.. *sigh* so we got in about 11pm mikes time and decided not to sleep because my taxi was arriving at 3.45am to take me to the train station. fuck that was horrid. i hate saying goodbye to him. hate hate hate. we sat in the airport and had breakfast, looked around all the lil shops.. but ugh.. when we had to say goodbye.. i still cry thinking about it.. just hurt so much. i swear we didnt get enough hugs in. or kisses. or enough time to say i love you one more.. mike said he went back to go take me out of the line, but by then it was too late and i was already getting cattled through security. god do i miss him terribly. i just want to be there RIGHT now. i belong there. we belong together. seriosuly once i pay jo off i think im going to make another trip back over for another long weekend in late jan/early feb. i hate being away from him. i hate hate hate it. god do i love you michael darren. more than anything in this world. |
