Today.

This morning I awoke and felt a little homesick.
I had a dream where I met up with my old friend Angie Wilson. (i've haven't seen her since sophomore year) and I really missed her when I woke up. Then I began to miss California and everyone there along with all of my other friends in the United State... but then I was reminded by an ad in TIMEOUT magazine that Michael Franti from Spearhead was performing for free at a place in London...so I went and felt right at home, with all of the hippies of london singing along to Michaels beautiful song including politics and love. I was brought back to San Francisco and Portland where have seen him perform before and realized how amazing it is that there are people just doing what they need to. My friend Sylvia is like that, she just went to Ghana and Burkina Faso because she had to go and document on her own what was going on there. Michael Franti did the same in Iraq. It brings me joy that people are that strong and compassionate. After I saw Michael Franti's performance I trusted my intuition and wandered towards where my friend Sara and Caitlin were staying in a hostel and sure enough i saw them across the street that I was walking down.
Sinchronicity always let's you know.

facts.

Glasgow (Glaschu in Gaelic; or Glesca in colloquial Scots) is the largest city in Scotland and the third largest in the United Kingdom after London and Birmingham; as well as being the most populous unitary authority area. It is situated on the River Clyde in the country's west central lowlands. People from Glasgow are known as Glaswegians. Glaswegian is also the name of the local dialect of Scots, commonly known as the Glasgow Patter.

cooking.

i've started cooking.
so far i've accomplished making soup.
split pea soup and potato/carrot/tomato soup.
for never having cooked much on my own these two were major accomplishments.

even ben was impressed. since he isn't going to be around for a year i need to learn how to cook my own healthy meals since i will be living in the home of the Haggis.

Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish. Although there are many recipes, it is normally made with the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver, and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately an hour. It somewhat resembles stuffed intestines (pig intestines otherwise known as chitterlings), sausages and savoury puddings of which it is among the largest types.
yum!


but if you have any vegetarian recipes then send them my way and i will test it out because i don't want to eat this...

read them. i do.
