I am really loving this new season. School is great. People are wonderful. I feel at home.
People are having a hard time understanding some of my words, tomato being one such example, but thats ok. They look at me and don't expect an accent. Things like that use to frustrate me. but not here and not now.
Is it just me or am I funnier out here? I think it might be the accent again/way of expressing myself, but I find people laughing a lot. Maybe they are laughing at me....fine by me if I bring joy into someone's life.
I have a few funny stories which I will hopefully share soon, one of which involves an adventure to whiskey town lake and swimming to an island with fresh paw prints of an unidentifiable, BIG creature. My response " WE HAVE TO LEAVE NOW. SWIM SWIM" My lovely friend Amanda responds "its ok Michelle, Adam named these creatures...Pray Michelle, Pray". In hindsight funny. But in the midst of it, not so much. Meanwhile my flatmate, and 2 of our other friends were indulging in what looked to me rather like frivolous synchronised swimming in what was in my head a potentially life threatening situation. Needless to say the passionate Scot was rather frustrated and was somewhat (cough) vocal and emphatic about our need to depart from danger. May need a deliverance sesh after that one.
More from me soon.
Cheers the now.
Oh how I miss my Michelle... *sigh*
ReplyDeleteHaha, awesome! Look forward to hearing those stories soon.
ReplyDeleteIn other news, tonight is a strangely mixed occasion of joy and sadness - we're having a CEILIDH! But it'll be the first one without the legendary freestylin' moves of the Mich! Sad :(
Rest assured that there'll be plenty of 'x-factor seagull-flapping' moves going down tonight, in honour of your groovy self.
Haste ye back!
