I haven't updated this in a couple of days! That's because I had quite the busy weekend. It was fun, exciting, tiring and exhausting all at the same time. I'll try to summarise all that happened.
So, on Friday I left to drive to Kira's at about 9:30 PM. It was the latest I'd ever done a long trip before, but the roads were quite dead so it was actually very relaxing. I saw some very obvious racer guys on the motorway and I really wanted to follow them, but they were just too quick. They were in tuned Focuses and my little thing just simply couldn't keep up without flooring it (which my black box wouldn't like). I could tell the way they were cutting up the lanes they weren't messing about. Anyway, I got to Kira's and sat for about an hour since she had just landed at the airport. It was very nice seeing her once she got home, though she was very very tired (understandably).
The next day we went to see another Kira, her friend with the same name! She lives down south and her boyfriend drove up to South Shields. So we decided we had to go see her. We got to South Shields just 30 min before she was meant to arrive, but she didn't arrive and we were there for a few hours before going home. Obviously, while we were driving home she messaged to say she got there! But that's okay, they said they'd pick us up to go to a bar in Chester-le-street. We got picked up at around 8 PM and we had a great night. Meeting her was just strange, not because she is strange but just knowing someone only by name online and then finally seeing them in person is always odd. Her boyfriend is very cool too and I'm happy she found someone decent as he seems great.
There was this weirdo man at the bar though which we had to move for. He kept saying to my Kira that she's nice but the others are retarded. Like what? So, I intervened and stopped the conversation. He kept trying to ask about Trump and shit so I just told Kira and the other that we are moving. I was sat right next to this freak so I wasn't sitting there any more and having the prick harass us. Later in the night, another weird guy tried talking to the other Kira, to which she said the most hilarious backfire ever. She told him she has a dick, and he said "Oh, even better." LIKE BRO NO!!!! It was NOT meant to go that way. Anyway, I had some overwhelming moments (as I always do when I drink), but sobered up a bit and gambled £20 away on the slot machine. It was the most uneventful slot game I'd ever played. Then, at about 12 AM, we packed up and drove home listening to a very specific song. I won't say it here, but you can guess if I say the song name is "My N----". We were all throwing up gang signs like we were straight up from O Block.
Then the next day, I was just hungover and felt like complete dog shit. I helped Kira a bit at the shop before I fed her a Greggs and headed on home.
Overall, a very eventful weekend, despite Sunday being a bit of a slow drag. But, the good thing is that I see Kira on Wednesday which is AWESOME and I can see her for a lot longer than just a weekend. I have slowed a bit on my hobbies, like my album I really haven't worked on it much lately. Same with my book I haven't touched that in a while. I know these logs were supposed to be documenting my creative process, but it has been a bit slow and I'm not entirely sure why. I think with Kira being away at Poland (and with me being on holiday from work for a bit) it has thrown me out of routine. I hope to get some stuff done tonight, whether that be writing, music or my PS3.
Also, Kira managed to get the Hardened Polandian score on her trip to Poland, scoring exactly 500 XP which I'm so proud of her for doing.
I asked Chat to generate my dream car the other day, and this is it. A matte black Subaru Impreza WRX with LED underlights and red headlights. I genuinely would have this car over any other car, even something ridiculous like a Lamborghini or Ferrari. Just something about the boxy design of the Impreza really gives me that cool vibe.
Obviously, even a stock Impreza is way out of my range. Not even in terms of insurance, but upfront cost these run for around £10-15K. Then getting one wrapped would be another £1,000 or more. Underlights would likely be the cheapest component, around £150-300. Then headlights I'm not even sure if they're legal or if they are expensive, but I wouldn't imagine them being very expensive. Add a window tint and I'm about done.
I don't even care if it's not super quick. I know Imprezas are relatively fast but I wouldn't care if it didn't have top of the line specs, just as long as it works decent and looks good. Insurance for one of these would likely run me around £2,500 which is far too expensive for me. I hope that in a couple years of being on the road that I can realistically think about getting an Impreza, it's my favourite car out of any car ever!
