Happy days

We made it to trent's house and after everyone was in awe of how nice his house was, we watched a little football on tv. around 5ish we started eating a pretty much standard issue thanksgiving dinner. I hadn't eaten anything all day (on purpose), so just kept eating. eventually people started finishing off and giving up, but i never got incredibly full. after dinner we lay around for a while, fighting off the tryptophan. Then we started drinking. We drank for quite a long time, but it was so spaced out and i had eaten so much that it really didn't have a effect on me. At night we went to a really exclusive club because trent knew someone that knows everyone in town. we were there for a little while and left after about an hour and a half. we went to grab something to eat, and then had to walk around trying to find three of our group who had decided to part ways and go to a casino. After we found them we went back home, but we had to take 3 separate taxis and the last one got lost. After some frantic phone calls and some walking, they finally made it back. the next day we woke up and had a mexican breakfast (burritos w/ egg, etc.). then i ran off to water polo to play. unfortunately the team i was supposed to play w/ had off, so i just swam for a while and then played around. I came back to trent's house to find that everyone except for joe (american guy) had gone home because he and trent had tickets to the opera that night through the school (only 4 leva a ticket). I decided to go with them to see if i could get a ticket and i did, so i watched the opera with them. I took the bus back to aubg because it was free (part of the school trip) and we would get back in time for the albanian party. There was a party in our building because sunday was albanian independence day, so they threw a party on saturday night. It was a really good party, by the time i arrived back from sofia around 10:30, people were already drunk. I went downstairs and something to drink, and then went out and ended up having dinner at a place called paparazzi around 4 in the morning. Yesterday wasn't too eventful, just did nothing and finished my science hw. I plan on giving blood on thursday. I would like to give blood in the states, but the american red cross won't take my blood, so i'm going to try here. the pin holding my strap on my watch broke, so i'm going to try and find a jeweler to fix it, my wrist feels naked w/o it. I don't have that much time left here, so i'm going to try and do as much as i can in the next 3 and a half weeks. as a start, i'm going to try and really get my hair cut tomorrow, i really hope this guy gets it right. I need to do it though because my hair is growing more out than down.
