First day of lessons at college.. well, not quite

7:00AM - I wakeup and get ready for college.
7:40AM - Start walking down to the train station.
7:55AM - Arrive at the train station when the lights are flashing and the train is about to arrive. I get on the train. After the first stop (wylam i think) these 2 guys get on. They're in their 40's or something and 1 of them looks a bit like Richard Madely (off Richard and Judy). They do various odd things such as:
1. Whilst both are looking forward facing the same way (1 is sitting on the left side, the other on the right side) they both get up at exactly the same time and 1 get some paper with random notes on it and the other gets out money.
2. Sit there asking eachother questions in an interview style way.
3. Bore everyone to death by talking about politics for a good 10 minutes.
8:20 - Arrive at Newcastle and walk up to college.
8:30 - Find my class which i'm in first (at 9) so i wont go wandering for ages amongst loads of people in a rush later. Then i go back down to the ground floor to get my timetable sorted out.
8:40 - When i arrive, a bunch of us are told that since they're dead busy with sorting out A level students, all the resit people get to go home. *cue sigh from me* I walk back down to the train station.
8:50 - Arrive at the train station and wait for the train till 9:20.
9:20 - I get on the train home. Except Newcastle station got their information which they put on the screens wrong and the train wasn't stopping at Prudhoe (my town) so i was informed by the conductor that i'd have to get off at the metrocentre. I know it wasn't my stupid mistake cause there were quite a few people who were told this aswell after me (old people aswell and as everyone knows, old people seem to live on trains).
9:30 - I arrive at the metrocentre and walk around (even though the shops only open at 10:00 apart from WHSmith which i can't go in cause i'm holding a bottle of pop without a bag) and I wait for my train at 9:55.
9:48 - I don't wish for anything else to go wrong so i arrive back 7 minutes early to make sure i don't miss the train. Sure enough, there it is at the station. As soon as i see it, i run towards it and just as i reach it, it pulls away. The next train is at 10:08 and so i wait right there, not daring to move incase i miss the next one aswell.
10:08 - Train arrives and i get on it
10:20 - Train arrives at Prudhoe, i get off and walk home.
10:40 - I arrive home to an empty house since my mam is out walking the dogs.
11:00 - My mam comes in not realising i'm there so i go pounding down the stairs going "AAHHHHH!!!" and give her the fright of her life. The dogs are happy to see me.
