Update!

Hello All,
My apologies for the lack of blogging action over the last fortnight but in all honesty there hasn’t been all that much to write about. Truth be told, there still isn’t but I don’t want anyone to feel neglected! Therefore I figured a quick update on Wisconsin life couldn’t hurt!
One thing I should report is that 6 days after my visit there was a fire in Augusta in one of the Amish peoples farmhouses, luckily no one was hurt but it was strange to watch it on the news having been there not long ago!
Mostly the last few weeks have consisted of a lot of studying. I’ve had a heap of reading for all of my classes which has taken up most of my time.
Yesterday I took some time out for some retail therapy and went to the mall with my friends. Amazingly, the shops weren’t given all my attention as there was something better in the mall...puppies and kittens!
Obviously missing my babies as I do, I was chuffed when I discovered that the local pet adoption agency had a stall at the mall to try and get some of the little ones adopted. I befriended all of the kittens but one little black one in particular, for obvious reasons! The lady was very nice and let me cuddle him/her (can’t remember which!) and as much as I’d have loved to take it home with me, I don’t think my dorm room is suitable for a new kitten. Even if it was though, I can’t think of a better excuse to not get any work done! So disappointed as I was that I didn’t come back with a new kitten, it satisfied my need for a kitty cuddle and stopped me spending any money. After seeing the kittens there was nothing I could have taken back that would have been as good as my little friend, even UGG boots!
This week again is again going to be lots of reading and then I have 2 exams the week after so then I’ll have to start working for them.
Today I spent the entire day reading except for a break for lunch and to watch the X Factor on YouTube, it was okay though as I had the season premiere of Desperate Housewives to look forward to. Imagine my anger when I found out that I had to go and have photos taken with my wing half way through the programme. So yes, I did see Desperate Housewives minus a 20 minute hunk in the middle which I was not best pleased about. No exclamation mark here, I’m not laughing.
If they pull anything like that when I sit down to watch Pushing Daisies on Wednesday night, I think it’s going to get ugly!

As I have nothing left to add, I’ll divulge some blog topics for the near future:
- Homecoming - this consists of performances by marching band, my first ‘Yell Like Hell Pep Rally’ and the Homecoming Dance!
- I am going to see Rascal Flatts in concert in Minneapolis in a couple of weeks, they’re a country band but really good, look them up if you’re intrigued
- The Parents and Brothers visit which I’m so excited about!
- A trip to Leinenkugel’s Brewery and Cook Rutledge Mansion – not sure of details but sounds fun
- Another trip to the Mall of America
- CHICAGO for Thanksgiving

Sorry there’s not much to report but stay tuned!
