Oh Karaoke night, how we love you!

Definitely the feeling of waking up super early didn't really last. When 8:00 rolled around and my alarm went off, there was no way I could be bothered to get out of my cocoon of warmth to go to the most pointless class in history. So I set my alarm back and decided that today would be a day that I get a lot of random work done, so I could start researching for my essays tomorrow. I did a lot of work for my chemistry classes and finished dissecting my primary source about Arthur in medieval Welsh hagiography. I even washed my clothes AND vacuumed my room lol. I was pretty much on a roll, and it really felt great to do work. As great as it felt to get the busy work out of the way, I definitely wasn't looking too great lol. I was stomping all over Hillhead like a troll in black boots and baggy brown sweat pants. At one point when I was carrying Bri's vacuum back to my flat to clean (ours is broken),  I walked by a guy and he definitely looked startled to see me lol. After doing all sorts of work, Toni started cooking dinner for us so I helped cut potatoes and do little things like that. She made schnitzel for us and it was really awesome. But definitely the funniest part was how excited Toni and Mina got when deciding to make the Shepherd's salad tomorrow... you would never know how euphoric a salad can make a group of girls lol. But after our family dinner, I went to Bri's flat. We hung out in the kitchen for a little. After drinking some nasty Black Current sourz, I made apple juice come out of Bri's nose with my Jabbah the Hut impersonation lol. Very good times lol. Then we went to union for Karaoke, and even though we got there kind of late we didn't hear any music. After I voiced this problem, Zoe said "Lydia, the party doesn't start until you walk in!". Literally right after she said that, the music started. It was unusually dead in the bar, but that definitely didn't affect our fun lol. We grabbed our usual corner area, and met up with our usual friends and let the Karaoke-ing begin! It was a really great night. We all sang and danced and had a great time lol. The best part was how it was basically just my friends singing. It was a lot of fun. I can't believe that I sang "Like a Virgin" in front of a bar full of people lol. One of the best parts was how basically all the bar staff know us now (since we are there all the time) and they say random comments to you. Like the one guy who saw me try to fall asleep on the booth and then accused me of spewing, said "you aren't going to puke again, are you? you promised you wouldn't get sick again!" when I was trying to order some water. Lol but anyways after listening to Martyn and Kelsie sing, and then dancing like a fool when Kelsie sang Time Warp, the night kind of got messy. I ended up climbing over a toilet stall to unlock a door and chilling outside when someone decided to crawl out a window lol. But the night ended in a nice way when I sang Summer Nights from grease with my friend Liam. It was great since my entire group was up there singing the back up parts and dancing like a group of crazy people lol. They are the best! After union closed, I went back to South House for a little, only to make sure that the boys would actually sing next time at karaoke. Hopefully we will go the the Bobbin on saturday. Money goes to the best karaoke performer! woo!

Today has been quite productive for me, actually. I got up early with every intention of going to my tutorial and then going to the library for some research. But on the way to my tutorial I found out that it was cancelled, so I got an extra hour at the library! The library is really nice and hi-tech. It felt really great to just sit down and get through a lot of work. I also really like the feeling of libraries, and this one is magnificent, so it was that much better lol :) I feel pretty boss for mastering how to find books and borrow them lol. After working in the library for a few hours, I went to the hub for some food and then went to Bri's flat. Reminiscing about karaoke last night was a lot of fun. It's always funny to hear about different things in detail that you don't completely remember. After that I went back to my flat and did some more work and read some Breaking Dawn lol. I then helped Mina and Toni cook dinner. Mina made lasagna and Toni made Shepherd's salad. Both were really hardy and delicious lol. AND I finally properly learned how to make the gravy sauce that Mina makes! It was a very fancy dinner, served in two courses which was definitely a good thing because we would have way over stuffed ourselves with eating the egg, meat, cheese, and vegetable salad and cheesy meat lasagna all at once lol. But Toni, Mina, Johanne, and I had a really nice time sitting in the kitchen and talking about random things. It's always nice to have relaxing and fun conversations when you're eating dinner lol. After eating, I strutted over to Bri's flat in my onesie to see what they were up to. Lindsay made a big deal about me wearing a trench-like coat and a onesie underneath lol. But I suppose it's much more common for a girl to wear something sexy under her big coat, as opposed to a onesie lol. After some funny talks and nearly unzipping my onesie to make a point, we had a night in. A very much needed night in :)
