tea parties and ukuleles

I finally got my ukulele on Friday! Oh my gosh, it is the cutest thing I have ever seen. I knew they were small (duh) but when I saw it in the store I was like, "Awww, it's so tiny!" I only know a handful of chords, but it's enough to make my room sound like Hawaii, and that makes me happy. I can only hope my roommates feel the same way :) I'll post some pictures soon.

Yesterday me and a big group of girls went to this adorable tea place in Chattanooga called the English Rose. It was the highlight of my year. I had tea, crumpets, and some sort of fruit and meringue dessert; it was absolute heaven. And, as if it wasn't adorable enough, the people that worked there were British. I almost died. I'm sorry, I'm just such a girly-girl. Here's me and my friend Jess:

So now I'm like, "Um, where can I buy a teapot? Right now?"

Anyway, I'm not super bogged down with homework this week (miracle of miracles) so I am going to work on my scrapbook, try some recipes I found in a Martha Stewart magazine, and read! Oh, and learn a song on my ukulele. Which, I have a feeling is going to be a little harder than it looks.
