Yesterday i had to get up at 4:50 am to get to poole by 930.
i was very tired but excited cos i was going to the Lush factory where they make everything
there are photos in this blog. i wasnt quite sure what i should take photos of sometimes so the photos might be abit random but i like them anyway
our train left london waterloo at 630 and my friend didnt get to waterloo until 628 which wasnt funny.
we had to run for the train and caught it just in time.

when we got there we didnt know where to go so we asked the train station workers where the Lush factory was and he said: which one? eeek arghhh i didnt know there was more than one frown so we were in a pickle for a while. then i found out where we was and we found 4 others who were going to teh factory as well so we got a cab with them.

when we got there we were split into 2 groups. we were with the two lush poole shop workers. they were well cool and seem to do the same sort of crazy thing i do when im at work :d so yeah we got on really well.

anyway we went to see how the gifts were made and help them make them which was alright. the people i started talking to and worked with were cool so we had a laugh but the girl my friend got put with wasnt friendly. my friend was tried to start a convo with her and the girl looked at her and said " look! im not in the mood so dont talk to me" confused eeek wow how fucking rude. my friend went all quiet and looked bored as noone was talking to her so i felt sorry for her.

next we went to go see how the bath bombs were made which was cool.
we got to make our fave bath bombs with someone who worked at the factory.
i choose to make big blue which is one of my faves
big blue:
heres me making a big blue bath bomb :



that room is quite dusty cos theres alot of citric acid in the air so it kinda makes you sneeze alot haha.
the factory workers kept laughing at me and my friend haha.

the lady who showed us around was nice to us and gave us a champange supernova and a haagen bath bath bomb which arent even out at the shops yet



haagen bath smells soooo good. its minty with small bits of real chocolate in it

we went for lunch then we went to see how everything else was made.
we saw the soaps.
demon in the dark

Bomhemian (which smells lush but dont look to nice here!)


karma soap which has just beem made

happy soap (the orange one) honey i washed the kids :

lots of melting marshmellow bath melts mmm

tons of massage bars

label land:



the lady below is awesome. she is called sue and makes fresh face masks so sometimes you get her face stickered onto the pots. on the sticker she looks like lorrane kelly from gmtv but in person she looks so different.
me and my friend wore the necklaces i made with the stickers of peoples face we like and my friend had hers so we showed her and talked to her for abit and got a photo:

strangly she loved us and the fact that we made a necklace with her face on haha.
we saw a few people that we see stickered on the products.
some of them look nothing like theyre sticker. like caroline (if anyone knows her) actually has hair and looks alot better than her sticker
we met andy.
me: are you andy?
andy: yes
me: *screams*
andy: *screams and smiles*
hahaha. was funny. after i scremed at him he actually came and talked to us hes really sweet and asked us if he was as pretty as his sticker and we were like yeah
that man is hot and he has eyes you can get lost in :lost:
we also went and saw how the bubble bars, deoderants and shampoo bars are made.
we also went to teh dairy section and all the people do there is fill pots, label them, pack them to be ready to send off.
it was so boring that bit. i asked a few few people what lush stuff they liked and nearly all of them said theyve never used any stuff by lush thats so crazy.

uni is going okay. it finishes on tuesday which is so soon. its weird.
im kinda just house hunting and flat mate hunting at the moment since i got on to their degree course
ive never house hunted before so this will be interesting.
this saturday should be good. my boss is having a dinner party at her house so i can learn how to cook and stuff for when i go away to uni.
all of us at work have to bring something or a few things we wanna cook and well cook and learn new things and get drunk
i dont have much else to add. i think ive said enough.
