Day 2

I got a late start yesterday, woke up at about 130pm, not to happy about it. I actually got a late start today as well, since it is 119pm right now. GAH. I'm going to blame it on the jetlag or the lack of an alarm clock. But damn, what a waste of the day already. The sun goes down around 4 here. So this sleeping in isn't gonna cut it! Anyway, last night I met up with Benny and Dave for a beer then we met up with a bigger group of the people I was hanging out with the first night. Benny and Dave live together, Benny is from Canada and Dave is from Scotland. Jacob and Shahab live together and are from Canada. Shannon and Rebecca live together and are from Canada. Angela and Daniel live together and are from Canada. And Art is from Texas, but he left to go back home last night. Damn - I felt like I was on repeat there for a second. We all went and saw Daybreakers at the local theatre, some movie about vampires having 95% of the world's population, they were running out of blood, yadda yadda - I don't think this movie was intended to be a comedy, but wow, bad bad movie. Wait for HBO for this one, and for someone to pay you to watch it. But it was all in good fun, we had a good time laughing at it.

Afterwards we went back to Daniel and Angelas flat, played a game called articulate, it's basically pictionary but without the drawing. You try and describe whatever word you have as fast as possible in about 30 seconds. The more words you can get, the more spaces you move. It's quite a fun game, although apparently the cards are from the 70-80's, making the people category a tough one. Definitely a fun game though. We played that until about 2 then talked and watched some videos of the New Years here in Edinburgh. Ended up getting in around 4am. Not a bad day at all, hmm maybe that is why I got the late start today...

Meeting up with Jaime, Jacob and Dave for lunch today. I was trying to get people and see the castle today, but that can be saved for an earlier day! Hopefully I will go get some necessities today, as this whole not having my suitcase thing is becoming quite a drag as my low number of supplies quickly ran out. 3 pairs of socks, 1 pair of underwear and no t-shirts or toiletries is no way to live in scotland, but hey, at least I have my jackets.
