Haven't talked in a while

My class was cancelled this morning, so I thought I would take the opportunity to catch up. I am thoroughly enjoying Harper still!!! Wednesday nights are still great like always. This past Wednesday started out not as planned, but I got through it. My morning class was cancelled, so I went for a run. I had a meeting to meet up for a group assignment at 12:00, we met at 1:00 and I missed my bus. I waited for the bus at 2:00 until 2:45-the bus never came. When I called the bus company there only excuse was-"The buses are running late, so we cancelled the last run". Thank goodness for my wonderful flatmate, Paula, she dropped me off at Newport. HSBC is not the same in the US that it is in the UK and when you do not have a debit card, they have no way of finding your account. Not even a checkbook or social security number (they don't have them here). Good thing I had some American cash, too bad the exchange rate was terrible. I handed the post worker $200. and recieved £113, that is a bummer. Trying to scrummage through the store I found all of the make shift ingredients for Chicken Wing Dip, made my own ranch, cooked and chopped up my own chicken, and used the UK's version of Frank's Hot Sauce (Maybe that is why it was so hot).
Went to catch the bus, 2 minutes late, missed it. I waited and chatted with a guy that was in my Tourism and Leisure class until the bus came. My key still won't work, I waited for someone to walk past the door and started pounding like I was a lost child-which I was. I ran upstairs and immediately started cooking, when shortly after Tom called me (Ginge)-"Rory will come to pick you up half past 6." He had to say it like 3 times because I had not a clue what he said. I said that is fine, hung up, and then looked at the time 18:23-Seven minutes really?!?! I changed my clothes, sprayed perfume on, left my hair in a rats nest, and then grabbed the chicken wing dip with my shower towel and left. What a day. I felt gross, when I walked in and everyone else looked so well groomed...I still had no make around where I got my eyebrows waxed earlier....that is embarrassing.
Never the less, we went to the pub for an official birthday party for Anna Bird, (PS-I love everyone here, I cannot tell if I am laughing at their accents or if I am laughing at them laughing at my accent, either way some great quotes from the night.)
~Highlighted toasts-
A toast to this table being like the UN (Whales, England, Ireland, Romania, US, and Zimbabwe all represented)-Jonathan Thomson
Many others, but I cannot remember all of them-We all had to say one before tha main course.
After the delicious meal-I had the Chef's beef pie and a Apple Raspberry Crumple with Custard-SOOOOO GOOD!!!!
We walked to the bar on campus, and danced until the cows came home-Actually it was more like until my feet were going to fall off. Then it was off to sleep.
