Happy Halloween!


After weeks without, I finally got to eat some Mexican food. And boy was it amazing!! The girls and I headed to a place just up the road called Mezz. They have all sorts of "American" food...fajitas, enchiladas, Caesar salads, BLTs!! They have wonderful 2 for 1 deals on food and cocktails! I ate so much food so quickly and loved every minute. I am definitely going back!


I wanted to go out as I haven't been in a while and it was Halloween. Tonight was the Teviot Haunted House at main campus. The EUSA, Edinburgh University Students' Association, is in charge of entertaining all the students. They put on live music, dances, comedy shows etc. Sami decided to join me and we prepared to go out. Due to limited funds and creativity, I pieced together a stereotypical yet wonderful pirate costume compete with eye patch!! On my way to the city center, I saw a group of little kids all dressed up. It was really nice, made it feel a little like home. However, when the UK kids trick-or-treat, they have to do a skit, joke or dance and in return, they do get candy but usually some money. We stood in line for the haunted house for a while before someone told us it was a no-go. Apparently, you had to buy tickets in advance because it sells out every year...wish I would have known about it sooner. Sounded like fun.

We did wander around the city to all of typical vet school stops. Not many were out, being a Sunday night and all, however, a few were dressed up.
