It was so hot out today! It went up to about 18 degrees I think. It was madness. I felt sort of bad sitting in the office staring out the window but I was still happy to be making lots of money. Well not lots but better than a kick in the pants. So to update everyone on my job - basically I'm the office bitch. I do photocopying or filing or sitting on my ass doing nothing. Whatever they need. Although today I got to take minutes in a very important interview session so I felt super important. Enough about that job. Although I do think I look hella cute with my glasses and power suit. Ha ha. Just kidding.

Some random things about Scotland...
- the paper towel in the bathrooms are all blue
- although they drive on the left, people seem very confused about what side of the sidewalk to walk on. it's madness. people walking into people everywhere.
- you can't buy a tuna sandwich without there being corn in it. I have no idea what that is all about
- bars close very very early
- all the light switches turn down when the lights go on
- girls wear really short skirts constantly with tights

This weekend I believe I'm moving into my new flat. No one has taken any charge really when it comes to organizing rent and shit so I believe that is going to be up to me now. At least I have experience. I'm moving in with 3 Canadians and 1 German girl (all of whom are 18). Ha ha. Good times will abound though. I can feel it.

Not been doing any more touristy things to report on. Going on a Haggis tour next weekend (which isn't related to the food but it's the company name). We're going to the Highlands for a tour and probably even making it to Loch Ness. Going to be good fun. I shall report on it and perhaps steal a few digital pictures from someone. Or just google it. Perhaps I'll see the Loch Ness monster. Ooohhh.

I found a job posting for an outdoor education instructor starting in January. Not getting my hopes up or anything but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Ok too full from spaghetti and the most delicious chocolate cake I have EVER tasted. I'm afraid it was even better than 'oh so good' in Ottawa. Blasphemy but it's true.

Cheers
