I was amazed at myself this morning when I woke up at 11:30 today...finally a weekend morning I'm up before noon! Then...I realized that October 30th is Northern Ireland's daylight savings so it was technically already 12:30. Oh well! I made up for it with all my brilliant studying today!!! Ally and I were in the library from 1:30 til almost 5! I got sooo much done! My essays are all ready for me to throw them on paper at my test tomorrow I feel so prepared and that feels really good. Both essays take me a little over 15 minutes each to write out and I've written them so many times I could literally recite them practically word for word for you (I did with my one on Max Weber on skype today...poor mommy haha)!
Tonight my flatmates and I were supposed to carve pumpkins. Neither of them had time to go to Tesco today and buy the pumpkins so I went on my own when I was done at the library. Ten pounds worth a taxi ride to find out that Tesco is all out of pumpkins...ugh. So no pumpkin carving for me this halloween. That's fine, I still have my tiny pumpkin Robert sent me that I drew a face on with pen. :)
I have been craving sweets all day so I was going to buy a slice of cake while I was at Tesco but I was good and didn't. I did buy a pack of diet coke and some more grapes so that the trip wasn't a total waste but I really did not NEED that cake. :P I still have some candy left between what Robert and my parents sent to me so I can use those as my sweets fix...still not as good as cake... (Obviously I'm am a wee bit regretting the absence of cake in my flat).
Oh! I know I had mentioned that I have been searching food blogs (best invention EVER) but I haven't mentioned a recipe I found that I will be trying very soon!!!! I don't know how I've never thought of it before but...CAKE BATTER pancakes!!!! You take out part of the actual pancake powder from the recipe and replace it with cake mix! I'm beyond excited! I think I'll wait until I'm back in the states though because the syrup here is funky and I'd like good syrup. I also found TONS of other great looking recipes both desserts and dinners so I'm really excited to start trying them when I get home. :)
Alright...morning = 9:15-10 sociology lecture, 10-11:15 study more for sociology exam, 11:15-12 sociology seminar where I take the exam (AND ACE IT), 12:15-1 rescheduled politics seminar instead of Tuesday. Let's kick some Monday Exam butt!!!
