So I have been trying to squeeze as much out of my life as possible lately. I'm wringing it dry.
Couple of notes, an outline sort of, of my life.
1. I will be taking Paul's (Irish guy, hot chocolate guy?) picture on Wednesday when I go in to say goodbye. He thinks
Another Bullshit Night in Suck City is a great title. I agree. I think it also happens to be a fantastic book.
2. The guy who runs the quizzes we've been going to has turned out to be a much larger jerk than any of us ever dreamed him possible of being. "Our friend is leaving the country to go home, could you maybe say a goodbye to her after you announce the winners?" "Sure." And then he didn't. (There was something else, but that's not a story I care to tell.)
3. My cousins are awesome.
4. I miss you all very much.
5. No one wore mustaches to the mustachio bashio. LAME.
6. Not lame? Watching the sun rise over the ocean... from an extinct volcano. I'm going to miss Edinburgh.
7. The sun sets at 9:30-ish and rises at 4:45.
My life lately has involved plaid skirts, sweatshirts, street magicians complementing my handshake and my eye color, being chatted up by thirty-somethings, obnoxious quizmasters, casually naked men wandering into pub quizzes, lots and lots of pubs, and friends, and laughing. It has also involved mustaches. I'm really excited to see my family in three days, but I'm really sad to leave behind everyone I met here. Don't worry, I'll be coming back as soon as possible. I love you.
Ok, picture time!
This is Ben. Ben thinks he's a pilgrim.
This is Will. He is one of my favorite people on the planet and I'm going to miss him SO MUCH.
This is Beth. I feel the same about Beth as I do about Will.
We might go skiing in Italy together.
This is the face I make when I realize I know too much about Britney Spears.
This is Jordan. She lives in Vancouver and does not watch Degrassi.
This is David Hume. He didn't actually dress like that.
Robert ordered a gin and tonic.
Kevin ordered a whiskey.
He is the scary-skinniest person I've ever met. This is at Aspen, by the way.
This is the Meadows. It feeds my soul.
They suit us.
Cara turned into a floating head.
Jessica and Owen. They're so cute together.
This is Cara's roommate.
Because we're tough.
MUSTACHES
They trapped me!
Seriously. Sunrise. From an EXTINCT VOLCANO.
CARA
Sun's up.
Pheasant! (Who just thought of Danny?)
There were hundreds of them and they weren't afraid!
Scaling Arthur's Seat
Almost at the top now!
Castle. Roughly 5:30 AM.
I love my camera.
