Sleppppppppyyyy

I am sooooo incredibly tired. I can't wait until I have more time on my hands during vacation and school so that I can blog more on this thing. Father's day was amazing, and the last week has been so hectic I haven't really been able to keep in touch with anyone but my parent's or those of you who I have been texting. 

Nothing really interesting has happened to me lately so that sucks too. I have been on an all carb diet (not really but basically) because I have not had enough money to buy anything other than pasta. I am so sick of pasta I could scream!

Ok enough about that, I promise a new  and more fascinating post this weekend.

Current Obsession: Getting up at 5:30 in the morning. In may sound weird but I feel more accomplished when I wake up early.

Food for Thought: I don't have anything good right now, and I don't want to insult your brain by telling you something stupid so wait for future posts.

Today the bus I was on got in a car accident...

well it was bound to happen odds wise.

Sorry I didn't post this weekend, I was just soooo busy. I went to the Haight Street Fair this weekend which was crazy and packed. I wish I had pictures of it and of me and everyone in my friends apartment but I didn't have my camera and someone who will thus forth be referred to as Miss LeRuss misplaced her. (Lame I know). I didn't end up buying anything because I had no money and today was the second day in a row that I had plain pasta for dinner (its the all carb diet).

Tomorrow I am going to eat at Slanted Door in the Ferry Building, which reminds me to inform you of my current obsession. This weekend is fathers day so Ill try to write a new blog more informative than this but no promises boys and girls. 

Just to let you all know if you don't already, I am going to to Denmark and Norway on a family vay-cay (aka vacation) in about a month and I am super excited. I have always wanted to go to Norway and Denmark but they have never been high on my list of priority European countries. So I am leaving in about a month and will be gone for about 2 weeks. If anyone has an recommendation on anything to do there let me know! Still loving my job, and it is  probably the most beautiful location to work at, EVER.

I missing all of you lots.

Current Obsession:  Yelp. I love going on Yelp.com and "yelping" restaurants that I have eaten at. I only do it because I haven't gotten around to making a food blog yet, but I will. But until I do go to Yelp. It shouldn't be that hard to find me. Yelp is addictive and fun, so I am warning you now.

Food For Thought: They finally named my banana hatred/phobia.. "Bananaphobia - the dislike/fear of Bananas". Go check it out on Phobia dictionary. Its real boys and girls.

Making that QUID

So I have officially completed my first week of work in San Francisco. I have to say I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE it, everyone is super nice and I love what I am doing. Everyday I look like a J. Crew ad going to work. The only downside is that I will probably spend my whole paycheck at lunch in the Ferry Building. I love being in San Francisco again; it is just the most energizing place to be.

As much as I love my new job I am becoming increasingly more impatient for September 18th to come (the day I leave for Scotland) or for my trip to Denmark and Norway to come (which is July 23). Ill try and write a better and more in depth post tomorrow or Sunday so stayed tuned home fries cause there is jibber to be jabbed.

Current Obsession: My commute. It sounds corny I know, but every day I commute into the city over the Golden Gate Bridge and I realize just how beautiful the city is, and I fall in love with it all over again every Monday through Friday at 7:20 am… just take a look

Its of the hoooooooookkk

Food For Thought: Listen to Suite Bergamasque: 3. Clair De Lune. Granted it has been in soooo many freaking movies lately, from Oceans 11 to The Darjeeling Limited but it just sounds so damn good…. and its at it best cranked up super loud (especially when I'm riding MUNI).

Prince William went to the University of St. Andrews...

True story. Maybe he will come back and we will meet and fall madly in love and marry (or maybe not).


Yo homies,

Somehow I still seem to have an internship at that law firm in San Francisco (I don't think I will really believe that I actually have it until I start on Monday at 9 am, it just seems to good to be true). So I return back to the city on Sunday with new "cooperate casual" outfits. Oh how I love my city by the bay. I think Bay 2 Breakers solidified it for me.... 
Any city where they let you toss tortillas and let people run naked is the place for me. I almost put up all the pictures of the naked people on here..... but I didn't. I haven't uploaded all the pictures on my camera so more pictures are to come!

Current Obsession: The new Coldplay song Viva la Vida.  (Good first song, I hope the rest of the album is this good. 
Props to Coldplay for using the title of one of my favorite Frida Kahlo paintings).

Food for thought: Viva La Vida painting by Frida Kahlo

Give me some Haggis, Irn-Bru and a pair of wellies...

So it is OFFICIAL everyone (or the five or so of you that have received my notification that I made a blog).

 

         I booked my ticket to Scotland today. I feel that now I basically have to go because the ticket was about a billion dollars—and unfortunately there is about a million stops I have to make to actually get to Edinburgh.  Now that I bought my ticket it feels like its really happening, going to Scotland that is, and that I can't turn back now (not that I would). So, because my great adventure seems to be finally starting, I have created this blog. Yes that blog that I have been threatening to make since the beginning of sophomore year.

 

         My prose is no longer what it use to be, so I apologize ahead of time (but lets be honest, I am not trying to write the next Iliad or anything). Those of you who know me well know I have always been a horrendous speller so that apology hopefully goes without saying. What I do hope to do in this blog though is share my thoughts (on everything, from politics at home to that cute Scottish boy in my International Relations class) and experiences (because I’m sure I will accidentally call football soccer a couple of times).

 

         So I may not be leaving for another couple of months but check out my blog periodically starting now, even before I leave, because life (to me) is always an adventure.


XOXO
