The Week I've Been Waiting For

Becca always makes Cucumber, ham and mayo sandwiches after clubbing.

Inside the club O'Couture...there are so many ppl in the clubs on a Wednesday night.

My new haircut, I got a side fringe

This has been a good week, social wise lol! I went out with Becca and Paula, and we met another Rebecca who lives down the hall. She was super nice and really fun! The 3 of us went to Paula's futbol friend's flat, then to O'Couture. We had a great time!

The next day, it was a beautiful (bonny also means beautiful in scottish) sunny day, and i only had one lecture, so I was gonna go for a walk, maybe go shopping after lunch. I ran into Becca in the kitchen and she said she was gonna go shopping, and I ended up going with her and we went to a couple stores, and got a free hair styling and shampoo w/head and hand massage, just by chance meeting some guy on the street! Then we met Debbie and Emma for coffee. Unfortunately, everything closes at 5pm here, so we had to postpone our shopping and walked back with Debbie and Emma.

The next day, Paula and Fabian were in our room, and I really needed to read a book for English, and they were being loud so around 8:30pm I go to the kitchen to sit and read by myself in the quiet. Around 9pm, Becca comes in and we started talking, and ended up talking about religion and had a very philosophical deep conversation. Debbie and Emma walked in once, then Emma walked in later and was like are you two still having ur deep conversation? Then Carol walked in and kinda took part in the convo while she made a pizza. Finally Becks comes in with a guy from the 2nd floor, Jaime, and then he leaves and we talk to Becks for a while. Finally we're like what time is it? And Becks says half 11! We had been talking for over 2 hours! It was great! (needless to say i did not get my book read).

Friday, I went with Becca, Becks and Sophie (not Sophie from our kitchen that i'm going to spain with) to go shopping. Becca and Becks were super excited, they wanted me to get new club clothes. We split up in Primark (the cheap clothing store that EVERYONE shops at). Sophie did her own thing, but both Becca and Becks picked up soooo many clothes! When we went to the dressing room, there was a 6 item limit. Becks, Becca and I each took 6, and we had to leave the leftover outside the dressing rooms. They had picked out over 30 items of clothing. I had to try each thing on and then model it for them. It took almost 2 hours! But I ended up buying a pair of shorts, skirt, jacket, and 2 tops. Then we went to accessories and I got a bracelet pack, 2 necklaces and some hair ties that Becks and I are sharing. It was dark by the time we got back. Then we had dinner, got changed and went to the University club Cheesey Pop, which plays music from the 90's and 80's. It was pretty fun, but just me Becca and Paula, so it was kinda boring. We did meet a guy who wanted to keep doing magic tricks for us, then bought becca and I drinks!

Which brings me to today. I worked on an essay that I haven't finished reading the book yet, but its due Monday. I have 1,554 words out of 2,000 which I think is fantastic for only working on it today! I also have a presentation due on Thursday, which I've not read the book for yet either. That'll be tomorrow's project.

Paula and I went to the hairdresser today so I could get my hair cut. It was rather expensive, but I do like the fringe! So does everyone else! Paula said she liked it. I immediately went to Debbie's room to show her when I got back and she said she really liked it. Then Becca and Emma knocked on the door and were really excited to see it. Finally I was leaving to go for a walk and ran into Becks, who was super excited and can't wait to try out new styles on me for next time we go out! Tonight, Becca, Emma, Debbie and I made pancakes for dinner and had tea! I always feel bad cuz I never have any of the ingredients to cook the pancakes. So I offered to cook them. Debbie and i each had a frying pan, and I was doing good at first. Debbie messed one up, so Emma took over. Emma can flip the pancakes w/out the spatula, and she taught me to flip them as well, by my last pancake I had it down perfect! I was actually talking and part of the conversation and didn't feel awkward at all!
