Almost midterms!

Hello all!
How are all you lovely people this fine Sunday afternoon? Personally I'm procrastinating on writing an essay, but what would college be without staying up until nearly 3 am writing a sub par essay because you've just given up on caring? My favourite is the digression of a college essay, beginning is strong and completely awesome, and as the redbull kicks in it slowly gets worse and worse until you type your closing sentence, read it over and go "well it's done..". Something I've learned to do well since the beginning of university. I haven't really helped myself either. Going out twice this weekend when I should be studying and writing my two essays all due Wednesday. 

My weekend started Friday night by going to the second last night of igloo fest! Man gonna miss this event until next year. It's a pretty cheap night if you take the STM and drink at home. And I'm all about cheap!


And I must say I felt hella cute when I went out. Even though igloofest requires ample layers of clothing, I still felt cute until the sweaters and coats! 
So here's my "I feel cute as shit" selfie. I know how badly you all wanted to see it. But last night! 

Last night, was the celebration of my favourite twins birthday! Maria and Dimitri have been great since I moved here. I got my much needed girlfriend as well as a good guy bud. One thing I miss about home is my boys, I've always had a lot of guys friends and that's something i don't have here so when we all go out it's always fun! In true Greek style we drank ouzo and went to a Greek bar.

Never thought alcohol and some Greek dancing could be so fun. Even though the dancing looks way easier than it is! I ended up taking a very expensive cab home instead of waiting for Dimitri to 
drive us, but hey now I know how much it costs to go from Avenue Du Parc back home, so life lessons, right? Still constantly impressed that two weekends in a row I've been able to get myself home strictly speakig french. It must be the alcohol. 
So! I'm quickly approaching midterms, the next 3 days are crazy busy. 2 test and 2 essays all before Wednesday. Heading to yoga tonight to relax myself before I get down to my stress. Then Friday I'm off to Cuba!! Let the count down commence!

Igloofest 2014!

Hey guys!!
Ah I love Montreal in the winter! I mean when it's warmer than -40 it's a pretty good time. Well Montreal is always a good time I've found, but I had one hell of a time last night! Me and two of my friends ventured down to Vieux Port (old port), and went to Igloofest! Nothing like a nice outdoor rave to heighten your sprits right? http://www.igloofest.ca/

Igloofest is this massive rave that happens 4 weekends in a row here in good old mtl, from Thrusday-Saturday it is a huge party! It's also nice that it's a 18+ event, so you never have to guess if that guys is just an older looking 15 year old (very common problem here). 
Aside from the piles and piles of people, being outside at night and dancing while sipping back your alcoholic beverage of choice is really really fun! 

So after some great #mtlmoments I will defiantly be going back, hopefully before this years event is over. And I'm now also a proud owner of the offical Igloofest Beanie, the hats I've been seeing all over town and wishing I had one. I gotta say there's nothing like being a student in Montreal, so many amazing things! All the time!!

Nothing like a good part song!

 So after my crazy night, that included meeting the cutest boy ! More on that at a later date if anything happens that is. Sunday is just going to be catching up on school reading for the week, and going to my yoga class later tonight! Gotta get that fitness on! 

Have a wonderful couple of days my loves. Good night, good morning, good after noon, but talk to you soon!
Love, Kate
