"I broke into your house last (or 'lost', as they pronounce it) night, and left a note at your bedside. I'm far too shy to speak to you at school, you leave me numb and I'm not sure why." And the rest I can't really understand completely cuz their accent is far too strong. But they're Irish (Northern) so good times. AND they went to college in Scotland. Rock on to that.
Someone NEW found their way to the Capernwray forums. They appear to hail from the Netherlands. This should be a good ol' time! :D Cultural diversity, I LOVE it! Hopefully everyone else has a much more interesting 'National Costume' than I do. And guys, if you use the 'less2talk' rates for phone calls, it only costs 9 cents/minute to the UK. So you guys should call me when I go. AND you should come visit, but I suppose 9 cents/minute is slightly cheaper than a whole ticket. Harumph. But you know, if you see a seat sale at TravelCuts in between classes or just whenever, you should TOTALLY make a wild and un-thought out decision and buy it. Cuz then you will make me immeasurably happy. Picture this: One (or better yet, ALL) of you guys appear at Carnforth when I'm there buying presents...or random things I don't need. Stef sees you, looks like a deer caught in headlights because she's trying to figure out whether or not she's finally gone over the edge and is hallucinating. Then Stef collapses on the floor as she realizes she is in fact seeing a living, breathing human that she knows and must be resuscitated by paramedics after they have been alerted by someone calling 999. Then Stef revives and floods sed person(s) with crazy ranting about everything and how she's never going to leave the UK and in between she will add little things like 'whoa!' and 'what are you...', etc. Ok, now that I've sed all that, no one will want to come visit me anymore. PLEASE?? Or, you know, on the other hand I may just be very calm about the whole thing and introduce you to my crowd of friends who will swarm about you and stand in awe and I'll just stand by and watch and randomly grin hugely. Come on, I KNOW you all want to come! I think my convincing tactics are not so efficient. Hmmm, I'll have to work on that. And what's with this expecting me to buy you things from England for Christmas??? OK, so I may have sed a lot of times that I was going to do that. And I still will. I just hope I have enough money. :O I wouldn't want to be stuck there you know. ;) I'm gonna have to buy myself things too. Like a shirt that says England on it and a shirt that says Scotland on it and a genuine Scottish sheep and a taxi ride from Heathrow to Buckingham Palace Road and a bus ticket (which I should have done already) and 3 other bus rides, and a trip to Scotland and trips to the Lake District and a trip to Ben Nevis and Glencoe and all those other fabulous places. Oh, why do I not save my money more often? Oh well, I WILL have enough. And of course I'm hoping to run into British hot guys such as Orlando Bloom (if I see him, I'm giving him a hug, that's been known for like a year already) cuz he IS sed to ride bike around London...although he may not even live in England anymore, I really don't know, I should get up with the times about that. Hey guys, did anyone else get that 'invitation to Britain' brochure in the mail? It was like a month ago...you can win trips and stuff. It was printed in England and published by a British company so I dunno why we got it if no one else did, I don't remember asking for it or anything. And it's not too helpful (besides the awesome pictures) because the phone numbers are all British ones which are...too long. OK, I've written WAY too much now. So I'll be leaving. Have a fabulous day and please get back to me about Jaspere! :D

Have a dose of Switchfoot, cuz they ROCK.
Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

[Chorus]
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

[Chorus]

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live
