- our little trip to walgreens at 2AM with a stranger who was (still is) twenty years our elder. then he got us 200 marlboros and sat with us back at the hotel as we smoked and talked about everything. we never learnt each others names.
- walking all around brighton just to find some good 24 hr food, resting on grubbs for milkshakes and undercooked chips
- tripping with jon and finding the promise land whilst everyone went to sleep. laying in the grass at 4am listening to m83 and stargazing. finally got up to watch the sun rise whilst we made a fire and ate nutella. (hahaha once we woke up the campsite was absolute shit and we didn't realise since we got there in the dark)
- sinems dad making us space brownies. driving us home and i just gazed out the window for hours, looking at the lights in london, thinking about god and costco.

- getting a disabled travelodge room with janie. trying to find the light switch and janie pulled the emergency chord just to prove a point (okay it was red but u never know??) shortly after there's a knock and i had to wait in the toilet because i was crying so badly from laughing. janie was not pleased ;-))
- sitting outside the ibis hotel at 2AM with a guy (bouncer) we met earlier, smoking. this older american lady comes over, sits next to us and gives a brief life story. basically tells us that whatever we were doing, sitting outside talking to strangers at 2am, we were doing it right. she was SO NICE
- when my dad drove us back from kentish town (imagien dragons) and we drove through all the lights and it honestly felt like a dream

- at the beginning of college with jack and ben. got quite drunk, mostly high, walking round our town till 3am. saw an old friend, burnt a bible, got badly stung by a nettle, hugged a drug dealer, and ended up literally feeling like i was gonna die from the need to piss (thanks tom!!! ur loo was nice). remember everyone sitting in jacks conservatory whilst everyone was talking and i just slowly lulled to sleep.
- buying £30 worth of dominos for just me and sinem. we got so much food that by the time we ate the starters we were full up... watched part of a film (?) but had to get the train home, where sinem walked me half way. once she got back she found that one of the dogs ate her entire pizza (he was literally a miniature dog idk how)
- smoking in sinems original room in the apartment, listening to the perks soundtrack. going on omegle and just chilling and chatting to different people.

- alex's dad donating his house to us for the entire comic con weekend. waking at 6am every morning to get there early, then getting back at about 8pm..
- smoking in our little smoking spot at the back of disney world, which was barely used. first night we found it all the rides were closing from storms, but there was no rain. slight fog in the air and a slight coolness to the tempature. probably the quietest part and i loved how relaxing it was there

- standing at the top of the rock in sub zero temperatures when the security guy approaches us. had the NICEST conversation with him (he agreed that paris was overrated and called me punk rock), took a picture of us for my mum, and found me a warm space to stand just near the lift so i wasn't shivering as much. SO NICE. also this was combined with the night sky and all the buildings being illuminated.. ahhh!!!
- walking through central park when it was -5C but it looked so beautiful under all the snow
