Day Eleven:

Today I picked up our freshers passes and then got underway with the activities. I cannot begin to explain how many coupons, flyers and random stuff I got. It was as if I was good and everyone campaigning were seaguls on the beach! We went to the beer bar in the GUU and did a quiz about general knowledge, sports and other topics. The only thing is. We don't know much about Scottish knowledge! It was quite funny hearing the actual answers versus ours. The night started our first big event by going to a concert held by Twin Atlantic who were pretty good to be honest! If I could post videos on this blog I would have so much more to show.

When they were done we waited an hour and a half just to see HODOR. Now if you're like me who don't watch Game of Thrones. You will also have no idea who he is. But he is an actor who plays a big role in the series and apparently a DJ as a side job. 

Day Ten:

I am beginning to think that my days aren't exactly matching up with my blog but I will nevertheless continue. I think today was pretty much just a relaxing day and freshers week has begun which means all the freshman have now moved in and to be quite honest it is very hard seeing someone who is 18 move into the same place as you when you are 21. Yikes! It is a Sunday so everyone just took it easy before the big week begins! There is a huge debate going on because of the referendum and so we decided to go to our debate chamber in one of the student unions. It was packed!! And the speakers truly sounded like braveheart when they started saying they want "freedom". It was interesting seeing college students care so much about something that could be a historical moment for their country: 

Day Nine:

Brandon called me about half 10 and told me that we are going to the coast. I am all for spontaneous events such as these but I was still really tired. We were a group of 8 and took a train to a place called Lags. As we were going through the countryside it really started to resemble the Scotland that everyone thinks of. Sheep. Sheep. Green hills. And more sheep. When we got to Lags we decided to have some fish and chips and I thought it was good but everyone else seemed to not like it. Here are a couple of pictures of the coast line and where we walked around: 

Near the middle of this long walkway we saw a massive church built in 1892. The lady inside the church was so friendly and helped us your the church and gave us some information about it. 

These stained glass windows are so vibrant and clear and they say that this church has never been revamped or touched. It's amazing how new it still looks. 

Another awesome thing about Scotland is their double cone ice cream. Pure genius. 

We were all just enjoying the little sun we get and passed out on the lawn while watching a group of 30 wee laddies play football. We also came to the conclusion that no matter where you are kids will be kids and do stupid things.
