hey all,

i know its been a while since i updated in this. its still been a bit of a crazy time. work is kinda lame and my living situation leaves much to be desired. but i have about a week to go and then i am done. woohoo. and i am on the waiting list to change rooms as well as viewing 2 flats tonight. so i am making moves to change things. my fingers are crossed and hopefully it will go well.

the plus side of things...

* went to the ceilidh with jacqui friday. had an amazing time. was flung, swung, and twirled about. still have the bruises from it.

* climbed the crags with some people from the hostel to watch the sunset. an amazing view. i want to go back sometime soon. there is a great sense of belonging from up there. looking down on the city. being close to nature and something real. it was an awesome time.

* had an awesome time making a couple of videos. they are somewhere on youtube and facebook. i make a scary psychic but at the same time it was great fun.

* i am going to visit parky for a week of madness in france. im super excited. it is a much needed and long overdue visit.

* and i think im going to roadtrip to loch ness this weekend. got to get away and have some adventures.

thats all for now.

missing and loving you all.

for the love of nicole... an update.

hello all,

its been a little while since i have writen in here. life has been interensting so far. its been a very mainc week. lots of good moments and a few crazy ones as well.

im living in the hostel and i have some awesome friends there and a great roommate but there are a few characters that i swear could be classified as criminally insane. we all know i dont have luck when it comes to living with people and the current situation involves a guy that my roommate and i found sitting perched on a chair in the dark room with an eerie grin on his face. he then bounced out of the chair and started bouncing around the room focusing his attention on me. asking me if i was going to go for the pull. thinking he meant am i going to the pool (my roommate and i were just talking about how i joined a gym and was excited that there was a pool) i informed him no im not going to the pool at 9 at night. he meant pull. informing me that it means "score." Am i going to score tonight? i told him i was just concentrating on writing in my journal and that it was still to early to even go out. he proceeded to tell me that it was ok if i wanted to. he wouldnt look and that i do have needs. when he travels he likes to experience as much as he can. when he is in italy he likes to sleep with an italian, germany a german, etc. im still not sure if he was hitting on me in a most awkward fashion or if he wanted to bring someone back and was like "hey its ok for you. it should be ok for me..." all i know is that i am officially sketched out. so i am looking for a flat cause i am tired of living out of my suitcase and with crazy people... its not going so well.

i work for the counsel again. i think i am going to quit in a few weeks. time for something new. i do accounts and data entry. not too exciting. but ok.

in exciting news the weekend was fun. went out with some friends to the pubs and danced. climbed the crags by arthurs seat. and went to the museum this morning. had a large chinese buffet lunch that nicole and nili would be proud of. and booked my ticket to visit park. I AM SO EXCITED. i think i did a little dance today when i was telling my friends about it. gonna spend a few days in tour and then maybe a little trip to budapest or amsterdam. we will see its an adventure.a place where you go for a weekend or so. we will see its an adventure. like my mom said "france is calling...."


but i love and miss you all.
