Uh, Oh. Looks like Someone's Back.

Where shall I begin? Too much has happened for me to even remember it all! This is a blessing in some ways considering the craziness of my last few weeks before break. All that has happened since we last spoke dear readers:
I have...

• evacuated from a natural disaster.

• spotted bed bugs after being taught by Shayla. 
• frozen my butt at the Absolut Ice Bar.

• hugged Taylor Swift.

• consumed waffles, fries and chocolates so delicious that it made Willy Wonka cry with envy. 

• accidentally wandered into the Antwerp red light district. Can you say AWK?

Surprisingly close to the red light district - which is why we were there in the first place.

• looked at lights in Brussels at the Christmas markets. 

• survived exams (for the most part).
• stayed awake all night in preparation for leaving for my fifteen hour flight where I had to leave at 3 AM. 
• cried with joy at being on Texas soil (promptly followed by Mi Cocina soil).
• gotten over jet lag.
  
• never left my wonderful parents' sides. Until I had to.

• watched my brother dominate Uncharted 2. 
• made pancakes with Theresa and got her into Glee. 
  
• seen my hilarious cousins and aunt and uncle. You found me, you found meeeeee. 
• celebrated Christmas with my favorite people. (Mom, you need to send me the pic with us!)
  

• received every thing I wanted and things I wanted but didn't realize I did.
• cape
• clothes
• cash
• shoes
  
• Miranda Lambert cd
  
• karaoked with the Cinco while playing questions.
• cheered on the Mavs in floor seats with the biggest Mavs fan I know, Theresa Salmon.

• glazed my hair!
• passed for Leah at the Idle Rich Pub. 
• rung in the New Year with sequins and friends.

• gotten over jet lag again. 
• lost my luggage.
• had it returned the next day.
  
• figured out my classes for this semester (for the most part). 
• blushed from my drama teacher commenting on my NYE pics. 

"Lordy...gone are the days of plaid skirts and saddle oxfords!"

• met new friends (shout-out to new favorite person Allison! Thanks for approving of my friendship to S)
• been told I look more Australian than Irish. Good or bad thing? No one would say. 
• caught up a bit with Sam and Abigail (who is visiting next weekend YAYYYY!).
  
• hooked everyone onto the Bachelor. New Girls Nights Tuesdays!
• made plans to go out tonight and do karoake in order to show around Ryan and Allison who are visiting Shayla. 
• forced others to promise to go with me to the Lion King Singalong movie screening next week.. 

 

You know you love me.
XOXO, Gaelic Girl
