Feliz Navidad!

I can't believe Christmas is here! The last few months have passed so quickly! It's going to be a quiet Christmas this year, just Jose and I! I did buy some Christmas lights for the house but when i got home, only every other bulb works and the only setting is on off on off on off on off, so when you yurn the lights off in the living room it feels like a rave. I also bought a poinsettia *Noche Buena in mexico, they are actually native to Mexico and Central America. Today I am going to make meatballs... not very traditional but maybe a new one for us. Jose has to work today until one so i am happily going to be doing Christmas makeup and hair... I've actually been excited all week haha. I hope everybody has a really great Christmas, I send all my love to my family... next year I promise!


So now it's the 27th... part 2! here are some pictures from our weekend.

It's been 3 weeks...

So I haven't written a blog in over 3 weeks... mostly because I haven't had anything too exciting to blog about and after my mum and dad left i did like 6 blogs in 2 hours.. and I just felt a bit blogged out. Anyway, life has been pretty normal for the last few weeks. Very busy with work but things are starting to slow down now Christmas is coming, most of the students take 2-3 week vacations, which is great for them but bad for me because I will be making no money for a few weeks!
So i am trying to think of things that are interesting that have happened... We went to see Harry Potter, I actually liked it, usually i feel quite bla toward those films but I really loved the story of the 3 brothers, I think that's why I like the movie haha. We found a really great Indian restaurant finally! I have been craving Indian food for months now so we checked the internet, we went, we ate and we loved it! We had pupadums which is probably spelt wrong and Farhaz told me that is the incorrect word anyways, we had chicken pakora, butter chicken, a coconut chicken thing and then strange milk dough lumps for dessert that were also very yummy. I bought a new long white coat that I am very excited about-although I'm too scared to wear it incase it gets dirty, but i LOVE it. I switched from a cappuccino to a mint tea at starbucks, but for tea they don't ask for your name so i haven't been Ana for a while, quite sad. I saw a car crash last week, well actually i was about 2 metre from it and the car hit the other car from the back and then the car spun around in a circle... except very strange, the lady who was hit, spun in her car, stopped cried, then shout to the other driver something along the lines of F*** you, you something or other and then sped away although her car was completely crushed at the back. Then the guy who hit her went chasing after her although the front of his car was smashed up.... it was very odd and I think i just stood watching in amazement.
I have actually been going to the gym again, only a few times a week but its been about a month now and i am feeling much better, I really hate going in the evening so i go during the day and the it's empty at that time which is even better.
Ok well I think we might be going to a concert this weekend and I really want to go on a picnic.. I will be sure to blog about it though!
bye
