I dine on rice, cheese, & crackers.

Also, I am currently enjoying the best cup of tea I have made in my entire stay over here.
(I think the secret lies with the honey)

Thanksgiving came and went. Some would say it was only yesterday.. but in fact, we celebrated on Wednesday so that all of our housemates could be here. We had a total of 13 people at our table in House 8. Three pies, Two meats, and as many casseroles and deviled eggs as you could want! It was a major success in my opinion. I couldn't have asked for better people to celebrate thanksgiving with in the UK, while I'm away from home.
Right now, it's Friday. I did school all day yesterday. Thursday is my big day here. I'm sad to say I don't do much academically any other day of the week. I had every intention of going to the library today. I also was ready to run this morning. But no, the rain and this nasty throat/cold illness I seem to have contracted put a halt to both of those plans. It's okay. I will accomplish something today.. probably my SCAD statement of purpose. We're going to the town of Cheltenham tomorrow for the Christmas market! Mayhaps it will even snow... How perfect would that be? :)

In other news, my hair has officially driven me loco. It's unruly, misbehaved, and a complete abomination on my head. It has to go.
I'm going to let Mallory trim it for me, and then it's straight to the salon when I get home. I already know the cut I want.. and I possibly might dye it too. I'm kind of at this free-spirited, what-the-heck, stage with my hair right now. Idk, it's kind of like, you watch The Devil Wears Prada with the amazing talent of Meryl Streep.. and you just walk away from it wanting to become a much more fashionable you! I might even buy HEELS! and actually wear them! That's how inspired I am... haha

Well, no one likes to just read a blog entry with some pictures splashed in throughout. We are a visual species afterall. So you will have now seen the Thanksgiving ones above that I did not insert until just now.. And I guess I can throw in one more.

But what to put?

Ah, I got it.

One of some of the people I miss most... Happy Belated Thanksgiving, everyone
