The Weekend

Thank goodness for the weekends! I get to stay up at night and wake up whenever (which is still early cause I hate sleeping too late!) Friday I stayed in and did lots of homework, but then got too bored of that and so to procrastinate I went to the movies with Jo and Aimee. We saw Juno and it was actually pretty funny. The storyline isnt spectacular, but so many lines in that movie are quotable! Any way. A couple of people went out Friday night but I think I was starting to develop a cold (and indeed I was). I stayed in after the movie and started to just look at my homework hoping it would complete itself. I have 4 papers due in less than a month, so that's a paper a week. Which isnt too bad, but Im not a do-it-ahead of time type of student. I dont know how many times Ive said this but I just dont understand the weather here. It'll be sunny for like 15 minutes and then next you look out the window and it's pouring down rain, but then you can still see sunshine! Ahh. Good ol' Scotland. On Saturday afternoon some friends came over which was a ton of fun because we made crepes. Surprisingly I found the receipe and it turned out pretty dang tasty. And I even cooked a few myself! We had most of the ingredients to make the crepes here, but our very very nice friend paul went out and bought raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, bananas, tiramisu and vanilla ice cream, whip cream, and chocolate syrup. So we had everything under the sun to stuff our crepes with. It was one of the best lunches I've ever had. After our brunch-lunch I sat down and started writing one of my papers (big step, whoa!)and by nighttime I had written an ENTIRE paragraph. I calculated how far I am, and im 4.73% done. I have to write 3000 words, you do the math. Saturday night Carrie and Aimee and myself went next door to another flat and we attended an Abc party (anything but clothes). We sported trash bags. Carrie had vocab cards all over her trash bag, Aimee made hers into a halter dress, and I twisted the front of mine into a little ball and put a belt on. It was nice because I didnt have to worry about getting spilled on because I was repellent. And at the end of the night I came home and just threw my outfit away! How wonderful that I dont have to clean it! Today I was going to go to the library, the one that's kind of far away, but it's not open. So I'll save that for Tuesday. I think I will try and progress my paper past the two-pager stage today. Cross my fingers! haha. Okay. Well that's all of my weekend and fun times thus far. Got to get going on my hw. Ta-ta
