Monday was a pretty normal day. I had my physical chemistry tutorial and then lecture. While I was sitting in the lecture, I literally watched the shadows from the sun move across one wall. It was 1:30ish in the afternoon and the sun was setting. It's crazy how dark it gets here in the afternoon! But I was cheered up when Zoe found me in the Hub and I found Bri, Kelsie, and Jo. It was nice sitting with them before my Arthur lecture. After my classes I went to Bri's flat and hung out there for a little before going back to my flat for dinner. Jo cooked Shepherd's pie for us and it was pretty good. It was fun sitting and eating in the kitchen with everyone. Callum came over to eat with us and he must have felt kind of awkward lol. We were talking about cute youtube videos, babies, and cats lol. We ended up sitting in the kitchen for a few hours watching all sorts of videos. It was hilarious. Callum showed us this one about a sloth crossing the street and it was HILARIOUS! I was the only one who found it really super funny, they all just laughed at my reaction lol. But for some reason that was like the best video I had seen! We also talked about random topics, like the Cold War. I described it quite well as a conversation between two people, kind of like "what are you doing??"... "nothing, what are you doing??" lol. Then somehow youtube came back into the conversation... it's kind of hard to stay away from the laughing babies and cute cats. But out of the blue we get a flyer from the union bar saying that there is Karaoke on Tuesday! I pretty much freaked out lol Karaoke is the best! After ardently admitting how much I love Karaoke and everyone saying that they will go and be my groupies, I went over to Bri's flat with Jo. We stayed there for a little bit before going to South House and watching School of Rock. It was nice to sit and watch a movie and relax with everyone like that lol. The boys hadn't seen me in my onesie before, but they of course approved. They understand the magic of onesies lol. After the movie was done I went home to bed. I had every intention of waking up nice and early and getting things done on Tuesday lol. That definitely didn't play out as well as I was hoping. Aberdeen weather just makes me really tired, and more or less not feel like moving lol. I haven't felt sunshine in days. It's just very overcast in the morning/early afternoon and by the time the sun kind of peaks through the clouds it like 3:00 and it's setting... it's kind of depressing.

Really Love Your Peaches
SO I was really looking forward to sleeping for more or less the entire day on Sunday. I literally felt like I didn't fall asleep until somewhere in the 10:30 am region. But Bri texted me nice and early (in the 12:30 region) reminding me that we had to go to town to get the rest of Zoe's birthday present. So I dragged myself out of bed, threw on the first clothes I saw, and walked out the door in less than 5 minutes. It was pretty ridiculous, especially the part about running to catch the bus. But we had a nice time quickly going to Morrisons and getting the cake and stuff for Zoe. Carrying the groceries back was not so great, though. My arms felt full of lead, but it was totally worth it. Zoe really liked her gifts and the poem card I made her. That was such a struggle to make, the creative juices were NOT flowing on Sunday lol. But after hanging out with everyone in Bri's flat, I went home (with every intention of doing some work before going out to union) but I ended up skyping with Max for over an hour. That was really awesome. I miss him a shit ton! I can't believe he's in college already! Lol but after skyping (instead of doing something productive), I helped Mina make a really tasty chicken, spinach, and cream sauce dinner. It was absolutely amazing! She really needs to give me her recipes lol. When we were cooking she said she's definitely going to teach me how to make the gravy that I love lol. I still need to give her the chocolate chip cookie recipe! She keeps reminding me about it. During dinner, Toni, Mina, Johanne, and I talked about all sorts of things lol. I love the nicknames that we come up with, especially the ones like Flower that are so fitting lol. I had a great time hanging out with them, I'm going to miss them all so much. When I went over to Bri's flat later we decided to listen to some Christmas music while we were waiting to go out to union. That kind of brought down my mood... listening to the Christmas music really reminds me of being home with my family. I'm not always so conscious that I miss them, but listening to that music really made me realize it. I played some Lakeview Madrigal music for Kelsie (the one where I have the solo) and that really made me feel nostalgic lol. But we all cheered up to go to union and celebrate Zoe's birthday some more lol. Bri played some really American music, like Steve Miller Band and Toby Keith lol and that was kind of ridiculous. It's really pretty funny that we are always at the union bar, but I like having a place to go where we all can go at the end of the day and hang out. After union closed, we went back to South House for a little and we ended up listening to a ton of sad country songs for some reason. I guess Bri felt like Martyn needed to learn some, but it just made us all feel like crap actually. So after Zoe and I left, I decided to watch the Breaking Dawn trailer to cheer myself up and that definitely worked. That movie is going to be ridiculous and I can't wait to see it!
