England, Spring Term and more!

15-4-2015

So, I know the last post was in December, and now it is April, but I have been busy. Here is what I have been doing:

January:

In January we received some very sad news about my Great Grandmother. She was dying. Two days after a Skype call with my Grandmother, my dad had some very exciting news. We packed our warmest clothes and phones and books and things because we were finally, after seven years, going to England! I was over the moon excited and it was a surprise visit, no one knew we were coming! 
It wasn't a straight there flight, we flew to Amsterdam and stopped there for a few hours before continuing to Manchester. 
When we got there it was freezing (and very early). We did all the bag control, money exchange and what not before getting our super, super small, red rental car. We stuffed our bags inside as well as ourselves and headed to my Aunts house. We made snowmen and had snowball fights, and sled races and had an awesome time. We  fed chickens as well. But I really enjoyed meeting my new baby cousin Freddy! He was born in November 2014, and he is SO SO SO cute. We kind of did a tour around England thing, because we visited my parents of friends, my mums dad and his parents (who are 92) and her aunts and uncle. We also did some shopping and I bought a R2-D2 bag. I also enjoyed going to 'The Kop' (Liverpool's stadium) and I bought a Liverpool jacket, which is SUPER comfy. 

We stayed in England for eight days and then got up at 2 o'clock in the mourning to give back our car and get ready to fly back to Qatar. (We left just in time because my Aunt said at around 4 in the mourning there was a snow storm! Phew!

March

On March 3rd 2015 my family went to see Ed Sheeren (one of my favourite singers) live. It was AWESOME! Honestly, he was amazing. He didn't just sing his songs either, he sang some big hits too. He even did a mash up song with Fancy (Fancy: Iggy Azalea and Charli XCX). I had loads of fun!

On March 11th I had World War 2 Day. My and my classmates dressed up as evacuee's as a fun activity. We made sandwiches, played conkers, made paper hats, painted Union Jack onto banners and played hopscotch. It was super fun - I still have my conker, and it has no cracks!
On the same day (March 11th) my Great Aunt and Uncle came to visit us. We picked them up from the airport. They stayed with us for 17 days and left on the 28th. It was fun to see them. We went to the beach with them, went to some Art and Crafts stalls and got henna and went to City Center and had an awesome time. I think my cat Mouse liked them too! 

April

 Right now I'm on my spring break. I have been to the beach, to Doha and around and about. I go back to school in 4 days. I had a two week break. It is going to take some getting used to, the school schedule.
