Much anticipated update:

North Carolina Trip:

Kirsten picked me up at the airport and our crazy adventure began. After introducing me to her dogs and the crazy cat, we picked up another friend of hers and went for lunch. Since Kirs is vegan, I decided to be vegetarian for the 5 days I was there. Well this only lasted till I had a chicken salad for lunch. Next we went shopping for our big beach trip. We went to this cool store that offered the veggie alternative to everything! We got tofurkey slices, tofu spread, and all kinds of good stuff.
After a yummy dinner that evening, we went to see “The Italian Job” and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Charlize Theron kicks some serious ass.

The next day we, Kirs, her Mum, and I, took off on our big beach trip. We drove three hours till we hit the Emerald Isle. We stayed at a lovely beach house. We went walking on the beach, ate some good seafood (well I did) and chilled out the first day. The second day we went to the aquarium and the scenic town of Beaufort. Then on the third day we headed back to town. Where I had the best Chinese food ever! They had this really yummy ravioli type dish…ooh it was good. After dinner we attempted to go clubbing but the first place was kind of weird then we got tired looking for parking and skipped out on the second place.

My last day was a whirlwind of activity. We went for a quick tour of UNC and Duke then had a quick lunch with her parent before they took me to the airport. Overall, I had a great time and can’t wait to see Kirs again hopefully in October :)
