Hey :) I'm not familiar with the Accent but we do have Hyundais over here. Audis are lovely! I used to work in an Audi showroom and would often get the urge to jump in one and go for a drive :D I'm guessing 'stick' means 'manual' over here? Are most cars automatic where you are? They're generally manual in the UK. Haha, doing stuff on your phone whilst driving is pretty bad. It's illegal here. I was driving with my dad the other day and my phone went off - I tried to look at it and my dad went a bit crazy lol. I can't believe you went into a snowbank! That could've been a lot worse I guess! Napoleon Dynamite is great, did you have the boots and everything? I didn't do anything for Halloween night itself, but went to a couple of pubs the weekend before where they were celebrating and everyone was dressed up. Which Silversun Pickups song should I start with? Are you excited for Christmas? I can't believe how close it is, can't wait!

Hey, sorry for the slow reply! How're you? :) Thanks for the congratulations :D Haha I feel the same about driving on the other side of the road, I can't comprehend it. I haven't got my own car yet so I'm driving my parents' when I need to. It's a Ford Fiesta Zetec and I hate it! :P It's diesel and I find it very hard to drive compared to the car I learned in (a Citroen which was lovely and smooth!) When I get my own I'd like something small and cheap to run, that's about all I have on my list of requirements! A Peugeot 206 or a Renault Clio would be good. How about you, what do you drive? I live in a town so it's not as bad as driving in a city but some of the roads are very busy. I get nervous driving in cities though for sure! I'm really terrible for listening to recommendations but I'll get around to listening to the song you linked soon, I promise! Did you find out whereabouts in Ireland your friends are from? I bet New Year over there was great :D How was your Halloween?

I can't say I've heard of them but I'll look into them, and Anberlin too :) I get bored of listening to the same stuff in my library so any recommendations are welcome! Hey Rosetta are great! Their album 'Seeds' has become one of my favourites. I love, love, love the singer's voice and the violin sounds amazing IMO. My week is going well, thanks! I passed my driving test last week :D and spent the weekend in Dublin (Ireland), which was great. How about you? Ah yes, I'm not looking forward to having to drive in icy/snowy conditions :s I feel quite nervous each time I go out somewhere in the car and I've still got a lot to learn, I guess it all comes down to getting experience with it. My dad is terrified every time I want to drive somewhere and tries to come with me if he can, haha!

Yeah, definitely. I guess it's somewhat comforting to know that everyone's finding it hard at the moment! The pot roast thing sounds amazing! I might try it sometime :) Yeah it was a local gig here in the town where my parents live. It was a singer/songwriter called Steven Finn. He had a great voice and played some lovely things on guitar and harmonica. Have you found any good new music lately? I haven't really been looking out for gigs so I'm not sure who's touring at the moment. Arcade Fire would be great! There's a band I like called Hey Rosetta! who're playing in London in November, so I might try to get to that. They're Canadian, maybe you know of them? Skating sounds like fun! Yes, I can't believe it's already October. Scary! I prefer a white Christmas, it just seems to make it more special :) How about you?

Yes, very much so! It's hard at the moment. And it's hard to save the money to do the course(s) that will get you to a better job when you're not earning much because you're not qualified enough for a well-paid job :P The wedding sounds great and glad you enjoyed your weekend! What exactly is pot roast? I keep hearing of it but have no idea what it is! I had a great weekend thanks :) My uncle was visiting and the weather has been good so we had a BBQ and sat in the sunshine. We went to a gig on Saturday evening which was surprisingly good. Too much to drink though hehe. Is it autumn in Canada already? It's getting that way here but the summers are getting later and later.

That all sounds good, nice one :) Did you enjoy the wedding? Yeah I'll be doing the same kind of work as before, I intend to do a postgraduate diploma or a Masters in counselling once I've saved up enough money and am settled down. How's your weekend going?
