Wednesday I went to the highland dance display. It was really neat, unfortunately I forgot to put my memory card back in my camera...=(. But we got to actually learn some of the highland dances. One of which I don't know at all, my the other one I
can still remember the first step of (because that is all we learned). Then My flatmates and I went swimming and hung around for a bit before they went out and I went to bed.

Thursday was another day trip this time to Glasgow. We took the morning tour again and it was a very interesting tour to say the least. Glasgow isn't that old so we were basically seeing semi newer buildings that had been converted into other things and we went to some odd parts of the city, our tour guide was a little off...Anyways so then as we were heading home Julia and I spotted this
WE FOUND THE TARDIS!!!! (actually we found two tardi =]) So we spent a good amount of time taking pictures of it. We then went back to the square to have lunch and wander around for a bit before my experiential excursion for my Religion and Conflict class.
We went to Glasgow Cathedral and the Museum of Religious Life and Art, both of which were very interesting. Especially the museum which had all of the major religions side by side and even intermingled to show comparisons and differences. It was a very unique experience. When we were done Jordan and I met back up with Julia, and I wanted to go see the Tall Ship but we didn't think we had enough time so we wandered around the shops and showed Jordan the Tardis before getting on the bus to head home. I didn't like glasgow as much as St. andrews, mostly cause it was bigger and not as old. Also there wasn't that much stuff to do and be able to be back to the bus in time. So maybe if I had more time I would have liked it better.
When we got back Jordan Julia and I made a delicious dinner while watching Doctor who and I was writing my reflection on the Museum. Julia made a rack of ribs, Jordan the corn and I made the garlic bread. It was a really good evening. I came back to my room and just kinda relaxed for the evening, my flatmates were out on a pub crawl for someone's birthday.

Friday was really boring....I tried to write my history Paper on Charles the first, but ended up procrastinating and sitting around on my computer. Finally I just gave up and went out side and read by the Loch and stalked some ducks, you know the usual =). Then I came back and we went to the Med for dinner, but I wasn't really hungry and their prices changed for the summer so I just got their nachos which were actually really good. We came home and they went to plan their london trip (which is coinciding with mine a bit) and then Vinny and I (mostly vinny) made the rest of our noodles. They ended up leaving eventually and I continued to procrastinate, talked to Chris for a bit. Read the autobiography of John Barrowman that Julia passed off to me and then went to bed.

Today I woke up to Julia texting me about going into town so she could find nice shoes and I needed groceries so I tagged along. I got myself some more digestives ( I might have a slight addiction =]). Then I came back and actually worked on my paper (700/1000 words done!) while my flatmates explored the sites in the city I had actually seen.
Then julia and I went on a small adventure for my flatmates. Remember how we won the pub quiz night monday well we won a case of beer, so I told them i would go get it for them (since they were gone). So Julia and I went and got the whole case (24 bottles) of Corona and had to carry it back. And we just laughed about what would happen if someone we knew saw us, because neither of us drink.
And now I'm back to procrastinating... my flatmates should be back soon and then they plan on going out to the club at the med and I will be going with them....so this should be interesting.
