Taken3

I went to watch Taken3 at the cinema today (well, yesterday). The fact that I haven't seen the first two is neither here nor there. The point is I went.

The website meetup.com has been a blessing. I came across a meetup for a trip to the cinema and I thought it was great because it was so close to me.
As usual I umed and ahh-ed about going. I was adviced to buy my tickets before hand to guarantee  getting a ticket.
I did try to buy them online but something went wrong. so I decided to just buy a ticket at the cinema. It was all good turns out only two people actally came (as in one other person). Also there were not even up ten other people in the cinema.
The film was good I liked it, it was jam-packed

Christmas 2014


This year was slightly different to previous years. We all went to Liverpool, which we have been doing for a couple of years now because my brother and he's family moved up there. We usually leave after a few days or so. This year we were there for 10 days. 
The day before we were meant to travel my mum went out to run some errands. I wanted to get as much sleep as I could (I predicted I wouldn't get much sleep on the train). 
3:00am the next morning getting ready to leave at 5:30am. Just as my mum was about to call a cab our next-door neighbour (well opposite neighbour) offered to take us to the station, Amen. 
We arrived at the station with time to spear. Apart from my sister's usual argument...uh I mean debate about how my mum takes too much stuff with her. , and my mum's debate/argument that we will need it. Our train left the station on time 7:07am on the dot.
We arrived in Liverpool around 9am ish the weather was cold, surprise surprise. 
That was the 24th of December
What do the Oluwatobis do on Christmas?
Well, for some people it starts with the cooking. For me it starts with sleep, and then I wake up wait for the food to be ready, eat and then pass out. I must point out the food was amazing White rice, Jellof rice, Roast potatoes, Ribs, Mac and cheese...ect ect ect.

Boxing day
Some of us went out to get some last minute gifts. My Mum brought the usual PJ's gift for everyone. She brought the girls PJ's that read 'Follow your dreams' on the top. When we were done it started snowing and it didn't stop until we got back home and a few hours more. I helped my mum to wrap the presents and when I was done we gave them out.

I got the opportunity to visit The Potters Church in Liverpool (twice). My brother is a Pastor there. My brother said that there is not a day that goes by that they don't have at least one person turn up for service.
