Internet is too Slow For Pictures... sorry!
Alright, so another pre- written blog. thats alright, isnt' it?
This week has been really uneventful, nothing special. We had another test, on personal evangelism, where I had to answer the way Rob lectured, not the way I would have answered, so I didn't like that. And we got back our first test, on Luke, where I did REALLY bad. so we wont' talk about that too long here either.
Right now I have two extra friends in my room, as well as two of my three room mates. They are 'working' on our assignment thats due on thursday. that I should be working on, but you know how I work... I procrastonate untill the last second. I'm working on that though, on being less of a procrastonater, in fact, my day today is devoted to my assignment on 1&2 Samuel. which the consensus of my comrades in my room is 'this is going to be easy' as Liz just declaired. oh right , thats what I was talking about, room mates. haha. Rachel, our English Room mate, is getting quite annoying. and I think she is catching on that we are kind of excluding her from all of our 'events'. I feel really bad about that, and am working on being a better room mate, but at the same time, I don't understand how she can be so inconsiderate of the rest of us, literally banging around the room while we were still sleeping. ugh. actually, she is loud ALL OF THE FREEKING TIME! she never shuts up (often talking in her sleep even), and goes a million miles an hour, and never stops!
Wow! this room never stops. I just had a visit from my friend Alex, from Dalmeny, wanting to borrow one of my movies. Its funny how we didn't meet until we were here, we have so many of the same friends and groups of friends, and aquantances that it is unreal that we haven't met before now. So pretty much when we get back from Capers, we are going to be like best friends. ok, well, Ashley you will always be my #1, but Alex is going to be up there a bit!! Haha, ok, well, that was a pointless topic right there.
Last night Mom called me to talk about our trip to Ghana. she'll be booking our tickets this week, and I may have to book my own from here in England to make it cheeper, but its so exciting to have this actually start in motion. I am so excited to spend that time with my family getting to know them all as adults and stuff. AND I am so excited to spend that time in the sun. I know that sounds a little silly, but my skin is becoming transparent with my pasty whiteness. its almost disgusting. haha.
Boy, I am in a silly mood this morning.
Have I ever told you what our saturday brunches are like? let me tell you. they are gross. like every other meal. we have roasted tomatoes, baked beans, canned muchrooms, nasty english sausage, Bacon that is really really fatty ham, and wanna be hashbrowns, and if we are lucky we get toast. and then if we are really lucky, they will have PB or Jam. And lunches are like this random meat in this random sauce with rice. and suppers are sandwiches. not even kidding you. meals here are nasty and they suck. and they never change. friday lunches are good though, cause its fish and chips. YUM!
Funny story. this week I have already been paired with two different boys, and been asked if I like either of them. haha. thats #2 and 3. and I've been told that another guy flirts with me all the time. Its a funny thing, because I have never had those kinds of relationships with guys, I am always the friend, or the sister figure, so this is a new experience for me, and well... I don't think I like it. I like being just friends with guys, I mean, I really am not looking to step away from this year with an awkward long distance relationship with any guy. Plus the ones this week makes it really funny. because they are two totally different guys. Jeremy is from Calgary and he's really athletic, and he and I are floss buddies- we floss in class together. and then there is Mike, and he is from Seattle and he and I are Internet buddies- we check our emails together on week nights and share music and make fun of those emo kids that lie to be impressive. or make fun of... pretty much anybody together. Its fun. and then there is always Paul. but he flirts with anything that has boobs, and I think I qualify for that one.
haha, I just realized how awkward this paragraph could be for some of you (sorry Dad)! So maybe we'll move onto the next topic!
Well... I don't know if there is another topic, I mean thats all we talk about, who is pairing up with who, and who shouldn't really pair up with who but are doing it anyway, and well... its really gossipy, but its what happens. there is deffenetly a 'bridal school' feel to this place. even with the 2:1 girl/guy ratio here. People are so funny.
well.. perhaps I should coninue on with life, and work on my assignment, even though I've let the other girls borrow my bible, because the opening pages of each book pretty much answer the questions that we need to answer for this assignmnet. is that cheeting? I think not, I mean, I am still reading the books to get what I can out of it. so I don't think its cheeting.
Have a really great week! I miss you all!
Much Love,
Laurel
