Last Thursday, a friend Carolin, and I went to a talk on Jack the Ripper. We both expected more dicussion on the actual man and story, but it was put on my the Film School and was heavy on the filmography of him as an icon instead. Afterwards we went to see what the "Canoe Club" was all about. It looks really fun, people were practicing kayaking in a pool. They go out into the North Sea every Wednesday to "surf." While it sounds bitterly cold, I think it should be fun.
The next day, I went to the infamous psych lecture with wine reception following. While probably inappropriate, but highly entertaining, Justiss and I got a bit tipsy and decided to go out. Carolin met up with us at Aikmans (my favorite pub thus far) and we ran into Richard. We decided to change venues and headed to a place called Ma Bells. I was uber excited because its nearly just next door to my flat. Turns out I hated it. Boooo, expensive and MTV was on the TVs.
Justiss and I braved a car trip to Dundee. Which is only twenty minutes away, but when you don't have a car feels so out of reach. Dundee is a bigger more modern/industrial city. So they have a mall. Whoo hoo. Lots of good deals. H and M is the best store bar none.
That was all last weekend. I just haven't updated. This week consisted of staring at my computer screen, literature reviews (only to seem productive) and committing myself to computer programming. Some of you out there scoff and think so what, that's easy. WELL YOU ARE WRONG! Haha I find it terribly confusing, especially since I am to teach myself. Ugh
Went to a pub quiz with some people I know through the psych department. Majorly fun. I don't know what it is about them but I love it. I am not a competitive person, but man its exciting when you get a question right.
Twice in one week I have been reminded just how loud I am. Oopsy.
With Halloween being on a Monday, tomorrow is Halloween going out night. A friend, Lizzie, and I are piecing together costumes. I am hopefully going to be a skeleton of some sort and she is literally a modge podge. We shall call her the "Spirit of Halloween."
