Today has been a bit of a strange day for me, yet it was a brilliant day at the same time. Today, I and my friend decided to go and see that new film out in cinemas (Victor Frankenstein) - it's brilliant by the way, I would definitely recommend it!
The cinema nearest to us is in another town, and to get there we had to take two buses. When we finally got into the town, we had to ask directions as to where to go. After walking for about an hour, with a lot of difficulty and having to stop a second time and ask for directions, we finally made it, with a bit of time to spare and some time to grab a quick coffee (or in our case, hot chocolate) before getting our tickets and going in.
The film itself was absolutely amazing. It couldn't have been better, so if anyone is thinking of going to see it maybe, do so. You won't regret it, honestly. Very well made, and a fantastic story line with a lot of action.
Now, the issue we then had, was that we both got confused with the website for the buses, and so we were wondering around for ages trying to find a bus stop that could take us home, rather than walking for an hour back to that bus stop where we got off in the first place. After going to where we thought we were meant to be, and being in the wrong place, we had to ask for directions once more. A friendly old couple pointed us in the right direction, and there, about a 10 minute walk from the cinema, was the bus stop where we had gotten off the bus, as the man had pointed us the wrong way, and had us go the long way around instead. After getting a little bit frustrated with the website, and a bit cheesed off that we had walked for so long when it was just around the corner, we just had to laugh.
At the bus stop, with half an hour to wait, we got into talking with a gent who was already there, who told us about an accident he had once been in, and what happened afterwards. He told us that we could do, and be whatever we wanted to be, and that the only limit was when we questioned whether we could do it.
"Build up your skills" he said. He made me smile, and was truly inspiring and a fantastic man.
On the way home, while switching buses, we went to McDonalds (which I don't usually go to, but they have the festive stuff in now, so we went in.) We thought we would try the toffee lattes, but instead had normal lattes. They say to make the best out of a bad thing, which was right, and I ended up at the bus stop, freezing cold, laughing so hard as Elin says "Whatever, I'm fine with no dip and a regular latte" in a sassy tone of voice. It was dark, it was cold and it was spitting with rain.
Today, I and my best friend Elin, walked for an hour, saw an amazing film, got wet in the rain trying to find the right bus stop, got frustrated, laughed a lot, and got inspired.
The real story comes from the adventures you share with the ones you love.
I will remember this story, because today, although we got wet and frustrated and we came home so tired, I never stopped smiling for the whole time we were out.
