I can cook!!

Okay, by I can cook I mean I made one dish successfully and I had to email my mother about it to ask how to make it. But the big miracle is that I didn't burn anything and I didn't undercook anything. AND, as an added bonus, the three boys I made it for (plus myself...don't think I didn't eat my own food!!) loved it and ate the whole thing. I think the only downside was that two other girls were supposed to join us for dinner decided to go to the gym and the boys got antsy and wanted to eat early, soooo they kind of missed out. Oh, by the way, it was chicken casserole.

I would update more but I don't have much to say other than classes are going swimmingly but I'm starting to get bored of the social scene. There is just so much going out and drinking like 4 or 5 nights a week and I definitely can't keep up with that. Plus, the same clubs over and over again get kind of boring after awhile so I'm thinking of taking a mini hiatus from all of that and just chilling out like I did over the weekend (I literally slept like 30 hours between Friday and Saturday nights). In terms of class we learned today about the Merry Wake, which is essentially when a LOT of Irish people get together for three days (between the death of the individual and his or her burial) and drink their faces off and play lots of games. Kind of makes you laugh, doesn't it?

This weekend a group of us is headed to Edinburgh, Scotland for a couple of days (thank you, RyanAir) since it's Valentine's Day weekend. It's a bummer I won't be in Tanzania and Calvin won't be here but there's not much I can do about it so I'm just going to go have fun in Scotland and hopefully see Robbie and Hannah!

More when I return from Braveheartland.
