Oops I didn't finish that one... but so I obviously made up my mind, and I stayed here in Tahoe, and I think it was the best decision for me, academically... not socially though, because I haven't really had super close friends IN Tahoe, because... well lets face it, I never spent all that much time here anyways. I miss my social life, but that leaves me time for other things. So far I have:
taught myself to knit and crochet, diet (ha well Im working on that one), stay in better contact with long distance (aka ALL) my friends, and thoroughly learn to love and appreciate all that I DO have all around me.

I have been taking classes at Lake Tahoe Community College and I am taking Biology, Chemistry and Calculus. Fair enough to say that my accidemic plate is FULL and don't have much time for a social schedule at that. But I am trying to keep my mind on other things, (not school and not Nikolai) and its really really hard to keep your brain NOT thinking about things... hence the knitting etc. but due to the changing seasons where it is much too cold to go to the beach, and too little snow to go skiing... I am at a loss.... any help people?

But we get to go see Katie in London on the 21, EXACTLY 2 weeks from now and Im going to pee my pants Im so excited!!!! :D Zach Kropf (Paris), and the Simmons (Switzerland) are going visit us there for Thanksgiving...
I find this very amusing that we are celebrating a holiday of liberation from England... so we will just celebrate there! HA HA!

I also realized that I didn't last post after finals, I think that was the last time that I THOUGHT about posting, and obviously failed to do so, instead I had a black eye...

Finals sucked, at least that much I remember and I was super looking forward to coming home, especially after all the happenings with Nikolai (this is also the most I have mentioned him in a long time, funny).

Last weekend (Halloween) I went to go see Trine is Salt Lake City and had a freaking blast! Mind you we were waisted the whole weekend... but it was well worth it for the two of us! I was a clown and she was a scarecrow (also she used my wonderful elephant outfit for our day of giggles, bike riding, pedicures with beer and dirty dirty looks from mormons)
Did you know that in the state of Utah they do not serve alcohol until AFTER 12pm!? Not good for curing a hangover! And on the pedicure note... well we went to a concert to see The Sounds! They were freaking awesome! I bypassed the ENTIRE bar line to get us drinks and I was getting really dirty looks from dumb blonds (not that I am one or anything) from behind me, but I fully prepared to pull off retartd incase it got to be ugly. Ha ha funny "in the moment story only Trine can fully appreciate;) ).So after ward on my attempt to get Trine and her 17yr old sister back stage, we killed time at the gay bar next door and Kelsi got my ID taken, so I hung around for an hour after, busted out some tears, and got it back, FO FREE!!! Then I walked about 2 blocks back to Applebee's to meet up with them while they waited for me... I was about to get mugged but SOMEHOW talked them out of it. I think it was the guilt tripping them, because this one lady said that she had a daughter my age but she had a kid so I mentioned something along the lines of "yeaaa soooo has SHE ever got mugged or raped, because that would be so sad and unfortunate" and after that, she looked at the two guys she was with and they walked away and said to have a good night. I had to pee... like really really had to pee too, and I had to hold it in too! I amaze myself sometimes.
OK so back to the pedicure, my feet were trashed from tromping around in heels and getting beat up in a mosh-pit, and my heels (from fabulous ross) were ripped to shreds :( So when we got up the next morning we had a yummy yummy home made brunch and then hopped on bicycles to whole foods about 3miles away, we were both still drunk after all this that by the time we got to whole foods it was time to reboost our energy*. The clerk gave us dirty looks buying beer at 12ish in the afternoon. So we took our goodies into the nail place and we got funny looks from the asians and they immediately starting talking in "asian" behind our backs, but technically it was infront of us, but what else could we expect? My blisters were ripped open and nail polish remover was poured into it immediately following, and she was laughing! I totally didn't deserve THAT! I know I was being irresponsible but not to the degree of that unwanted pain that I (actually Trine, love ya!) was paying for! I mean COME ON!
Then we rode to radome stores buying crap we didn't need, and halloween costume parts.
We watched some TV, took a nap to get ready for the evening, and away we went to costume preparations, drinks and a photo-fest! (can't find my cord at the moment but you'll see pictures, not to worry!)
Fun night, with mixed drinks that we were paranoid that had been roofied (hadn't been in the end) black lights, spiderwebs, a creeper grandpa, Waldo, H1N1 (very cute boy that Trine snagged), and an awesome Sweeney Todd.
We had Tea the next day with her family for Kelsi's B-day and then we went sopping and I spent a little too much money.. oh how fashion is my weak spot.

Flew home and sat between two crazy ladies!

Then back to school and that is about IT.

Now hopefully I can consistently write on my blog from here on out, my goal is every 2 weeks. Remind me, it could help
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
