I'm sorry that it has been SOOOOOOOOOOOOO long since my last post. There is really no excuse for it.... but if there was it would be that I just plain forgot :( I will not try to remember everything that has happened in the past three months so that I can share it with you, I will simply pick up from two weekends ago.
I am sure that most of you know that Paul got a new job (temporarily) in Paris which he started almost a month ago. Last weekend I was forced (haha yeah right) to go visit him and get him all settled in his new flat. We had a great time and managed to see the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, walk along the Champs Elysee and saw the Invalides from afar. We did manage to do a little bit of shopping on Sunday... for Lucas. I was informed a few days prior to my trip that Lucas Jon Peterson himself requested that I buy him a present while I was in Paris. (of course I hadn't spoken to him in weeks but he didn't bother himself with idle chit chat... he got straight to business) And of course being the best big sister that I am I happily obliged. :) The trip home went very smoothly (THANK GOODNESS!!!!) and if you do not know the story of my previous trip to Paris then you have no idea why I am so happy and I'm not going to tell you here so I guess you're just shit out of luck.
I had an essay due this past Friday which I had been working on the previous week as I knew that I would be out of town for the weekend. I was in the process of writing it and was so close to finished when..... DUN DUN DUN.... I came down with the stomach flu :( the day before my essay was due. So I felt horrible physically and mentally I was slightly freaking out because I have never ever ever in my entire life missed a deadline. So I was frantically emailing everyone that I could think of (while hovering over my garbage can) to get an extension. I was instructed to email my Programme Director as he was the only person who was able to grant the sought after extension. So I did. Then I waited.... and I waited... and I waited... It got to be 3:30 p.m. on Thursday and I still had not heard back from him. I was getting a little frantic. So I sent him another email saying that I was sorry for being so persistent but I was very ill and I had never been through this process before so I was a little nervous and if he could email me back soon I would really appreciate it. A half hour later he responded. And I'm not gonna lie, he was a bit of a sassy pants. But never the less he granted me my extension. YAY!!! So I finished up my essay on Saturday when I was finally feeling better and handed it in an hour ago.
My weekend finished up with a very pleasant Saturday visiting my friend Kelley at work and having a fancy coffee followed by a trip to the pub with Heather to watch Scotland lose at rugby :( but Liverpool draw in football. I have decided that Liverpool is the football team that I am going to support (except for Suarez because he is a racist douche and they should have kicked him out for the rest of the season) except when they play Man U because otherwise Paul would never speak to me again. Not that he is too happy about me liking Liverpool in the first place :S
Well that is all for today. I hope that everyone is having a great new year so far!! Love you all :)
Paul forced me to take pictures by myself... which I hate |
not the greatest picture but oh well... |
