Well, it is over. The Aspies have gone home and I am now back in Melton writing my last entry on the event. The last 3 days have been some of the most fantastic 3 days since I have been at DMU and the memories I will take away from this week will last until I am old and wrinkly.
Since I finished yesterday's entry, I took 8 Aspies on a bar tour of Leicester. There was plenty of drinking games during the evening including several rounds of 'the floor is lava' which got increasingly inventive as the night went on including the change of the word 'lava' to the words 'social interaction'. We also introduced the 'Alexandra Burke of Power' which was essentially how we decided who was the question master during the evening. This then lead to the rule that every sentance must end with the name of the powerful X-Factor winner.

For the first 2 bars, we must have only had a couple of pints tops. However, we got to Revs. Revs were nice enough to give us cheap shots because there were so many of us. We all brought a stick of shots each to share, we then got VERY drunk. Now in my defence, everyone was upright when they got back to Bede so they weren't THAT drunk. Instead we started singing random songs and there is a recording somewhere of the Aspie's singing all-star at half 11 at night.
Fortunlately, everyone was awake and bushy tailed for this mornings lecture and mentor meetings. After everyone met their mentors, scoffed the free food and said their final goodbyes, it was time for the Aspies to go home.
The last 3 have been some of the most tiring days but they have also been fantastic. I think this is also because this year, we had a really fun group of ambassadors and we were constantly having jokes with each other to help us get through the last 3 days.
Next week is currently a quiet week or washing, gym and endless Netflix and Housewives.
Until then,
Toodle Pips,
Kelly.
