Afternoon Bloggers,
So after a very hectic week or so i am finally writing to you, my loyal followers, to let you know the ins and outs of life in Cai...
Last time we spoke i told you of the beckoning arrival of the new Erasmus students to this hollowed land... and boy did they come in boat, well plane-loads!!! But if we thought the population had just gone up significantly, then in a weeks time, boy will we be shocked!... Carnaval is just around the corner, and the population of Cadiz is set to cuadrouple for the festivities! Costumes, Masks, Make-up, Music, Booze and humongous crowds plus so much more is what can be expected from the street parties, packed clubs, and good times ahead!
Lets take some time out now guys to introduce you to a few new members of the gang....
James 'Chadwick' Leach: I wouldnt go as far to liken the guy to frodo baggins, thats just mean... and Matty already has the title, but this short set senor has more to him than the eye can see (maybe because i can only see his head if i stand up straight....). Apart from the fact he is unfortunately a Man Utd fan, (we're trying not to hold it against him), and had a Nugent-Esque debut... He's a top guy, funny, and after spending a semester in China, you could say he's an interesting guy.. And with being of such a height, has fitted in to Sam's shire sized void... shame for he manc thing ey!
'Big' Dave Smith: Thrash metal, Ginger hair and a Cockney Accent would usually be enough to either define a persons life.... or make them consider ending it, but our Dave is letting neither of these happen. With a unique view on the world Dave is a brilliant guy and already a great asset to our ever growing 'Possé' (first and last time i ever use that term!!! i really am not black enough...) Spurs through and through the guy is a barrel of laughs and, luckily for me, takes half the ginger jokes away from em :)
'Likkle' Laura Payne: Payne.... well not really, it should definitely be Pain... in the arse :) never have a met a 14 year old boy with more to say for themselves ;) Witty and Pretty is our Midlands Missy, but sadly for her, her lack of common sense takes a sharp edge off of her looks. Great company, (except for at Italian restaurants) and easy to talk to, (if you enjoy being bullied), Laura has slipped as well into the group as the seagulls poo did into her bag; with a lot of fuss, but lots of ease to match it :)
Clodagh 'Lola' Ryan: Irish shouldn't define people for the rest of their lives, and it seems Clo has fought it all the way... A semester-long stint in China and the ability to speak 4 languages means that this Galway girl has much more to her than you would come to expect... i mean have you seen the Irish economy... they aren't the brightest of nations... :) (pause for laughs or shocks at the casual racism...) Always being up for a laugh and a drink is the best of the Irish in her! Missing out on opening Carnaval weekend has been her biggest error so far, that and of course the nail-polish-leg-incident....
'Juicy' Lucy Robinson: "Here's to you Mrs. Robinson", i say as i raise my metaphorical glass to the female version of me... no not looks wise (she should be so lucky), but finally someone who can keep up insult, one liner and self-esteem crushing wise, for this Lucy, is bloody well salute you :) Like Far East Movement (ironic as she is half indian) once wrote... when we drink we do it right, getting slizzard, Lucy last night displayed some wonderful drinking techniques... if you ever want an early night after drinking follow her few brillaint steps;
Step 1: Play ride the train so terribly that you drink half a bottle of vodka in the process
Step 2: Really take in the air outside as to let the fresh air help you to realise you wastedness
Step 3: When arriving at a party, be sure to have your journey juice prepped with minimal mixer
Step 4: Drink as much in as little time as possible
Step 5: Demand an Italian meal at half 12 as a pit stop
Step 6: Order another alcoholic bevarage with your meal... neither of which you will touch
Step 7: Speculate about returning to the party, but instead collapse at your door, or on your faltmates bed.
See... An early night doesnt have to be a bad night.... The world through the eyes of Lucy... A strange, but wonderful place!
There are many more newbies, all of whom have seemingly slotted in perfectly to the Cádiz landscape, Mr and Mrs Rachel Green ;), our new and so far often drunk housemate Anastasia, Quiet Becky, Interesting and Dramatic Fausto, Multi Linguist Amy, Matt Cardle look-a-like James, Scouse Jess and the wonderfully German Liz-Zy and Lucash, among so many more are making Cádiz, post exams, pre Carnaval, one heck of a place to be in!
With Uni starting up again, we have all been getting back into the swing of sunny Cádiz life... the beach everyday isn't the most difficult of theories to grasp... in betwen classes, after classes, on days off and on the weekends, soaking up the sun, feeling the burn, people getting pooed on and porn shows from interesting tourists just help to make Cádiz even more the place to be in February!
And with Carnaval just around the corner, old friends returning, new friends arriving, its sure to be an interesting couple of weeks before i return back to England and Wor Matito turns the big, andrather old 22... and who of course will be on hand to keep you all in the loop, why me of course, you trusty, worldwide blogger :)
As for me? A new job, New friends, new Sunburn and even tan lines, and a pure excitement cursing through my veins in anticipation of the next few weeks, Carnaval, Mattys 22nd, and Enlgland all within the space of a month, well I, my friends and loyal readers, am a very, very happy Blogger :)
Happy Blogging :)
