Manchester United Soccer game!

Kelcie and I went with our friends Sam, Alex, and my roommate Katie to a Manchester United game last last Monday (18th of February). It was so much fun! It was the fifth round of the FA cup against Reading. Both teams are in the premiere league, but if you know anything about soccer then you know that Manchester United is #1 :) and of course....Manchester won 2-1.

This is the outside of the stadium :)
our seats were pretty high, but we could still see the field just fine!



A man beside me, who was quite drunk I might add, informed me that the Streford End of the field is the favored end. At half time the score was 0-0 but he was just convinced that Manchester would score now that they had the Stretford End.....he may have been drunk, but he was right! 

Sam, Kelcie, Katie, me, and Alex




After the game we had a long journey.....it ended at 10 at night, and we didn't have to catch our train until 1 in the morning. As you can see, we were trying to pass the time.....



After we got off of our first train, which was at 2 in the morning, we then had to wait three hours until the train at 5am. So this time we decided to go to a nearby mcdonalds in the city of Leeds. This mcdonalds was PACKED! these crazy kids were partying on a monday night! we were so astonished....our friend Sam ended up asking a group sitting next to us why they were out so late and they were surprised and just said "eh, it's monday night, we're just hanging out." .......at 3 am.....on a monday night....maybe im just not accustomed to the party life haha. anyways, so kelcie and i got Cadbury egg mcflurry's!!! We all know I"m a chocolate lover....and I have found my new favorite chocolate over here! i'm in love with cadbury!!! I know we have some in the states, but it's made by Hershey for some odd reason and it doesnt taste the same. Plus, they have so many more varieties over here!!! I'm going to the Cadbury Factory at the end of march :) But apart from being dead tired, it was actually quite amusing. We even met a Harry Potter extra! (and we all know how much I LOVE harry potter!!!) she was in the very last battle scene....so i guess i know what im doing when i get home! putting that scene in slow mo hahaha. 

After we got on our last train we FINALLY made it home at 6:30.....but was it worth it??? absolutely! :)
