three days...

is all i have left. there is an air of solemn melancholy over the house- everyone is trying to have a great last weekend but we all know it has to end... very sad... but it has been a great run and i have gotten to go to an amazing amount of things in london, mostly thanks to the parents and the family, and i have traveled as lot! amsterdam, bruges, calais, scotland, dublin, madrid, portsmouth, hampton court, northampton... and more i am sure... everything was totally worth it and i only regret i don't have more time to stay!

and now for something completely different...

in two days i go to DUBLIN! for three days! life continues to suck, things continue to happen... :) <3 cheers!

so yeah...

clogs and cheese in amsterdam, chocolate, beer, fries, and waffles in bruges, all over london, all of scotland (loch ness to edinburgh)... i just realized something... my life SUCKS! and i am now watching the superbowl at like midnight in the ridiculously crowded common room in my house while there is snow coming down and there is like 2 inches of snow outside already... AWESOME!

OMG THE CUTENESS!

so a couple of weeks ago i visited my sister and brother-in-law who live in minnesota and have recently had a baby girl... the CUTEST LITTLE BABY IN THE WORLD! she is just so adorable and happy and fascinated by absolutely everything! even when she fusses or cries it is quieter than most other babies! wow, that is a lot of exclamation points... i also visited so i could give the little one the blanket i had been working on for months (mostly because i am in college and there were big blocks of time when i couldn't work on it) which, according to my sister, she seems to really like... according to my sister it is a "magic blanket" which keeps the little person asleep longer... but she is just so cute and absolutely loves to smile! and double plus bonus, they asked me to be her godmother! yay! apparently i said yes so fast they thought i had heard them over the baby monitor... it was such a great trip! though i am sure they were unhappy when it snowed like 8 inches...
