It's the first day of fall, did you know that. :)

I did end up finding the library and ironically the bus station all in one moment this morning on my 2+ hour walk. Visited some more stores, things are either too expensive or not really my style. Though I can't say that for everything because I have found some things that once I have my allowance I will definitely try on. (I feel kind of out of style and frumpy here... yes I know me the fashion major...) But I think part of the reason is that the style here is not entirely my style and most of the people walking around here are stick thin, pretty and they can pull off anything... it's not fair at all... :P

*Plus I need to rethink my style a bit, I'm getting to the age where juniors clothing is just not acceptable anymore, (A.) I don't like how some of it looks on me anymore, B.) it's not well made and C.) I have curves which most younger teens do not) I need to sophisticate my style... And I really like a lot of the styles that Ann Taylor etc... do but I can't afford them on a day to day basis.

The phrase: My eyes are too big for my stomach comes to mind but in terms of my eyes are too big for my budget. :P And if you know me, I'm not a big spender, in fact I'll debate buying something until I eventually talk myself out of the whole thing. :) lol.

Another problem I have is putting things together, I can do it for others, I know what looks good together, things I put together for myself (when I have time to sit around putting outfits together) look good in the closet and on the hanger but on me, not so much... maybe it's all psychological... :P

Tomorrow it is supposed to rain, So I am going to wear Skinny Jeans, my Rainboots (if it is raining when I get up for class in the morning, flip flops otherwise) and since it is supposed to be 66 tomorrow as the high; a cream tank top and I'll bring my green zip up hoodie in case I get cold.

I'm staying in again tonight (mostly because nothing is going on (except for the comedian)... also I just don't feel like going out) Tomorrow night is the Action Figure/Barbie Pub Tour, I am going as Secretary Barbie (Black pencil skirt, Black High Heels, and either Maroon or Blue and white striped Button up, only thing I don't have is the glasses)

I started doing my laundry for the first time since I got here, and so far so good... nothing has bled unlike other people I've heard. Also it sucks not having a dryer but it's not the end of the world. It also sucks that washing anything takes like 2 1/2 hours but what can you do. :P I'm going to air dry everything, except maybe when I wash my bedding, I'll just go down the street and ask if I can use one of the other houses dryers. I kind of wish we at least had a yard with a clothesline since we don't have a dryer but oh well... maybe i'll string up my own. :P

I went to ASDA to look at baking my own birthday cake versus buying my own birthday cake and a thought struck me if I were to bake anything I would need flour, sugar, oil, eggs, mixing bowl, pan to bake in, etc... so I decided that buying was the preferred method. :P (Though i do want to bake, I miss it) And I want to cook, again once I get my allowance and I see exactly how much I get each week I will be able to plan out meals. :)

Some meals I have on a list:
Masaman Curry with Chicken
Pasta in Spicy tomato sauce with Chicken and Veggies

And From the Student Recipe book they gave us...
DIY Chicken Fajitas
Portuguese Soup
Chicken Quesadillas
Beef and Spinach Curry
Lamb with Ratatouille
Pizza (build your own)

I at least want to try a few, but I will be copying down all the recipes I like and taking them home with me to make dinners at home even if I can't make them here. :)

Classes tomorrow: Still just British History and Modern Britain, I think I will be really glad when the rest of them start, cause then I will actually have things to do... other than walk around all day exploring and what not. :P

Anyway that's all for now, write more later. :)
