The Zoo

So yesturday i went to the Chester Zoo with Eve and Melissa (Chester is in England) and over all it was ok. The 'habitats' for the animals was pathetic. The Elephants barely had any room and it was all mud and cement, very sad. Watching the monkeys was good becuase they were running around and having fun and what not, but the rest of the animals just looked depressed. if i had A LOT of money i'd buy an island and put a bunch of animals on it, make sure they could all survive in the wild and then make the island protected, like the Gilapigoes Islands, and let the animals thrive. The only Habitat that was actaully repsectable and really good was the Jaguar, want to know why? The car company sponsered it. how sad is that, the building before you got in to see the Jaguars was bigger than half the habbitats! if only there was a car company for every animal, but as AT pointed out no one would buy a car called 'The Sloth'.

So tomorrow we (Melissa, Rob and Me) leave for Liverpool and then wednesday morening we leave for Pisa and then are in Florence, YAY. i'm nervus and excited. i've never traveled by my self. I still owe money to Eirlys for London. Anyway, yeah, we're staying in the airport tomorrow night, that should be fun, i've laredy packed and am all ready to go, i just hope i get up early tomorrow, for the past few days i've been sleeping in untill 3pm, but then again i am going to bed at 3am. i'm almost on track with Canada's days.

So this month is almost over, it went by fast with out me even noticing. it felt like it was going by super slow and then i realized, (w)holey crap the month is already more than half way over. so hopefully January and Febuary go by really fast too. i can't wait to go home. it seems like it'll never come. Thinking of home and what i want to do and what i am going to do gets me through the day, not becuase i'm constantly homesick, don't worry, i'm haveing an awesome time.

on friday was the Staff Christmas party, i got a ring. its really cool, the only problem is it only fits on my ring figures and i'm not use to haveing a ring on there so i haven't taken it off since i got it, and its slowly getting more and more comfortable. On Wednesday Melissa and i left for Manchester to see Ben Folds, on the way to her friends house from the train station the car broke down on one of the busiest streets and we were there for about a half hour. That night she and her friend Tyler got smashed. 'Laura, you are AMAZING!!! If you take the most amazing person and the second most amazing person and you put them together thats fucking you!' 'wait, thats me? or thats doing me?' 'both!!! with out you i would have killed my self with a ball point pen' and that was basically the conversation all night, everyone and everything was amazing and with out me she would have killed herself with a ball point pen, lol. Oh Melissa. On thursday we went to Affleks Palace, a store a billion times better than Hot Topic. it was amazing. I bought a bag that was made of an old superman douvet, and Melissa got a vespa bag, damn her for seeing it first!!!! oh well. Ben Folds was awesome, it was super amazing! i loved it!!! some idiots started to mosh to it though, WTF?! Melissa and i got squished against the barrier because of them, oh well, no biggy, we're still alive and breathing. we called for a taxi because we missed our second bus, and the taxi adn us could never find each other so we went to the train station and called again and they never came so we got a different Taxi and the driver was super nice. He asked us what part of Scotland we were from (he was just winding us up) and we said Canada, and he said what part of scotland is that from, and we said we're from north america, and he said your from america? and we said CANADA and then he laughed adn then we laughed. he was relly nice, very friendly and talked to us the whole way home, he knows Betws, which was really cool. when i say home i mean Melissa's friends house in Middleton which is just out side Manchester.
and thats about it.







i've been looking for something, something to be!
