plans

Guess who's off to San Diego, California next weekend? Yes, that would be me! Not only that, but will be cheap cos all I'll have to pay for is a share of the petrol (or 'gas' as I should say) and food cos we are staying at my friend's grandma's house. Bonus!

I'm never in a writing mood when I update this these days. Sorry for that but I will do my best anyway and I'll see how I get on. If this entry seems disjointed etc, then we know why.

Last week was Homecoming at NAU. Festivities started with a huge bonfire outside my hall of residence. I went with a few of my American friends. We took loads of photos (let me know if you want the link), I've even got a photo of me with some firemen - woo! On saturday there was a parade. The theme was 'Return to Mount Olympus', in other words anyone who was anyone was wearing a toga. In fact, it was toga-tastic! There was also an American football game, this time NAU's team was really bad and by half time I was truly truly bored so I left early. I was later told that things did not improve and NAU lost very very badly in the end.

I went to Sunset Crater again yesterday with my find a family. They also baked pumpkin pie, an American tradition apparently. I suppose as pies go it wasn't too bad but it definately isn't on my top five pies list or anything like that!
