St Andrews

We went to St. Andrews yesterday. Definitely in the top ten most beautiful places. We had a blast, and played some golf too!

























Someone carved "Scottish Freedom".









I took so many photos. It was awesome. The first building that's pictured (with all the graves around it) it St. Andrews Cathedral. Then the later one is the Castle. Quite good.

Time Flys...

Somehow it rains when it's sunny out there.

We decided to teach the Scots how to play flip cup and pong. But we didn't know that there are no solo cups in all of Scotland. We did eventually find cups, but it was really had to flip them.


We were practicing with water, for the record.


It really does get worse everyday.


The ducks are so adorable I can hardly take it.


And when I said there were a million, I wasn't lying.

I went to FUBAR last night for a roller disco. However, they didn't give out roller skates like everyone said. But it was still fun. There are some picture somewhere floating around. I'm sure they're super flattering of us all gross and sweaty. Tomorrow I'm heading up to St. Andrews tomorrow where I will perfect my golf swing. Oh man! Frank Sinatra just came on my Itunes. Today is going to pretty awesome I've decided.

Valentines Day

I got flowers. :) It was pretty much the coolest Valentines day surprise. It made me smile, and definitely livens up my room a bit.

So, I decided to get those pictures of my kitchen/room off my camera. The kitchen isn't so bad anymore because they got yelled at about it. But it's by no means nice.





We're going to see a Rugby game in Edinburgh tonight and I'm stoked. Not as stoked as I was for dinner tonight. I made a tomato sauce with mushroom and zucchini (or maybe it was squash, I'm not sure) over pasta with homemade garlic bread. It was so worth my dead arms after carrying all the food back from Tescos. My mother will be proud. :)

ps; MXPX is playing on sunday. & Sick of it All and WIC are playing in april. (and I'm still stoked on SYG) FREAKING AWESOME.

Cheers to New Things.

So, I've been in beautiful Scotland about a week or so now-actually over a week. I spent my first few days in Edinburgh (the capitol) which was nice, but definitely touristy. Then I moved to Stirling. In my opinion it's nicer. But not the point. The point is, I don't have any photos from Edinburgh, but everyone was taking photographs like it was going out of style so if google doesn't suit you I can take care of it.

On one of our first days in Stirling we visited the Wallace Monument. (Note: If you don't know who William Wallace is, you're missing out. Go watch Braveheart.) It's pretty amazing, I can see the "Wally Molly" from my campus, it's maybe a mile away. And of course, Mel Gibson is at the base of the hill.


You have to climb a pretty steep hill to get to the base of the monument. My calves looked SWEET that day.

Willy's blade!

250 and some odd steps we made it to the top.

"The Crew" at the base.

"The Crew" at the top. It was windy.

REALLY windy.

The wind knocked me over. But the view was BEAUTIFUL.


I have a few more pictures of the cute ducks/wildlife here on campus and the DISGUSTING living conditions these Scots find acceptable but I'll upload them later.

Cheers. :)
