Clowah, the Author, England

Heya! I've missed you guys and all the people in my story! Hope you've been alright while I've been gone. A big shout out to Obviously Entei, who I can't reply to, but I just want to say thanks for the idea for the building blocks of this chapter ;)

So who's left in the arena? Oh yes, eight people. No Careers left - ooooh. Leave me a review saying who you want to win! And who knows... I might make a poll!

News

Bummer, I forgot to tell you guys. I'm going camping in two days AND THERE WILL BE NO INTERNET ACCESS. *Bursts into wretched sobs* So this camping holiday is going to be for two more weeks and I wish there was more time between holidays, but the summer hols are short and I want to make the most of them ;)

That's all I guess, but keep on waiting, and have a good holiday, if you're still on it! The next bit is about my trip to good ole Ireland; a few diary extracts (Good ones only!) c:

PS. If you're a stalker you won't get very far. I have edited this extracts accordingly *wink wink*

Ireland

Friday 9th August

By way of obtaining our culture this holiday, we decided to visit a field halfway across the country. So okay, we couldn't find the freaking cat stone, so called meeting point of five kingdoms, but we got a nice trek. If you ignore the stings and the mud. Maybe it wasn't worth the hike to the property owner's farm, where as we waited by his stately homed door, I was convinced that he was fetching his gun. Even more so when we were greeted by his over-friendly, may-have-rabies dog. Ok fine. He was a nice guy. And it was a nice dog. But that's not the point I'm trying to stress.

Saturday 10th August

Today was not a day for adventure. The computer featured frequently in this description. But still, we managed to drag ourselves out of the house and to the nearest inhabitable town. Oh boy, the 'Happy Pear Café', your cookies are FREAKING HUGE. And your 'coconut water' tastes like diluted shampoo. But no matter. There is nothing else of importance that needs to be written down. But seriously though, the cookie was bigger than my hand span.

Monday 12th August

Off to our proper culture fix. Newgrange, a virtual Stonehenge, except it's in Ireland and it's under a hill. Well, a man-made hill. Inside the hill/mound/burial chamber was very fascinating but also greatly claustrophobic, and the charming tour guide switched the lights off for us. Bearing in mind that this is inside a hill. Did I mention how much I enjoy being in a pitch black cave, 500,000,000,000,000,000 years old, and under 32,000 tonnes of rock/earth in a structure constructed by illiterate beings? No? Thought as much. Guess which part I was lying about.

Wednesday 14th August

Find me a day on this holiday where I haven't got up late. Or gone on the computer. Oops. So we went to the edge of the large span of ground, called by some as 'the beach'. If you count seven cars in the car park full, then yes, the beach was full. Sadly, I didn't make the plunge. The water looked cold. And suspiciously jellyfish-like. I got sand in my camera (way to go!) and I was unfortunately greased up like chips waiting to be fried. Is it just me, or does anyone else despise sun cream? Oh okay. Just me.

Friday 16th August

So it's back to the Green And Pleasant Land, which may or may not have been pleasant, depending on your views of rain. Like just about everyone says at some point in their English lives, 'Typical English Weather.' The plane was quick. Like super quick. Thirty-five minutes. Woah. We got home early evening with just enough time to get upstairs before passing out in my bed.

Last Words

So! Hope you enjoyed that! I have missed out a good chunk of diary, but really, some of it was pretty boring. More like a, 'Lets List Everything We Did Without Any Imagination Or Cynical Slash Jovial Vocabulary.' I'm sorry, but I don't even know where I get these words from. It's like they pop into my brain at exactly the right time.

Anyway, guilt over for another five days or so. I promise I will write another chapter AS SOON AS HUMANELY POSSIBLE, but sadly not before I go :c

Ily!
