The sky is so strange and beautiful at the moment. Strange layers of fog combined with yellow and pink. Perhaps it means snow! We had some the other day and coming home from the bar I kicked everyone's ass at a snowball fight. Take that all you non-Canadians.
Hogmanay was absolutely madness. Went and drank at the hostel for old times sake and then went to the massive street party. I have never seen so many people crammed into a (not so small) space. For a while it was cool and then we kept losing people to the crowd or random hookups and eventually ended up getting pushed down like 3 blocks and ultimately OUT of the official street party. So that wasn't cool. But we found a nice spot on North Bridge and watched all the fireworks. It was like surround sound fireworks. They had them going off at 6 different spots.
I went to the museum of Scotland yesterday because I was still on holidays. They had some really cool exhibits. Along with an entire floor of mounted insects and butterflies. It was pretty cool. I felt like a big nerd on the 'instruments of science' floor when I was all excited seeing things we talked about in my stupid Atmospheric Monitoring course.
Our flat keeps gaining people. Corrina's boyfriend (of one month) has moved into her room, and we've had hostel folk crashing here over the holiday break when the prices are incredibly high. It's getting to me a bit. Oh well. Rent keeps going down!
That's pretty much all with me. Have two trips coming up. Woot! And I have a few ideas of new jobs and places I can search so I might consider leaving this one if I have the chance.
