update: after a LOOOOONG time.
hola! mi llamo jo, tengo diecinueve anos y vivo en york! soy de singapur, y soy estudiante! yo tengo una hermana, es mas pequena que yo, y dos hermano. tengo novio y [someday-to-be] marido, se llama ernest! mi padre y madre soy medico, y ellos viven en singapur!
well, that's about all the spanish i can say after two weeks. :( i am a gone-case.
anywayyyy! hello everybody, it's been a while, hasn't it? my life has been uneventful, or at least, relatively uneventful, and i was planning to wait until i got some pictures from my friends so i could make my life SEEM somewhat eventful and exciting but i decided that that was pretty pointless, since it's evident that my life is uneventful ANYWAY.
it's been four long weeks of proper schooling [woe betide whoever decides to go to university thinking that it's going to be a breeze compared to jc], getting into the swing of things [finally], using up all my foolscap paper, starting of tutorials and having reading lists piled onto you. i get the feeling i should be studying a lot harder than i am currently, but well, i figure i'll eventually get around to it when someone finally kicks me. [i'm only kidding, i do study hard. :P]
i've been called a LOT of things by my friends, or rather, FRIEND, recently: "uptight" is one.. "prude" is another.. and of course, who can forget the classic one.. "bitch." haha. i wonder how you're supposed to NOT take it offensively, but i know [or rather, i think] they, i mean HE, doesn't mean it offensively. well, if he does, -shrugs- what the hell, right? haha. i'm coming back soon, in any case. you guys love me, don't cha? haha.
well, if you don't.. it'd only be three more weeks before i head back here anyway. :P
i can't believe i'm making a joke out of my sad, sad life.
the weather's getting really crappy. one night, it went down to negative FOUR, and i don't have a warm enough jacket OR gloves so i was basically freezing to death. haha. i bought a nice warm scarf, though, and the nine pounds i spent on it was REALLY WORTH IT. the daylight hours are getting shorter and shorter, and it's beginning to turn dark at like five pm. :( that effectively means that i pretty much walk back from lectures on tuesdays, thursdays and fridays in the dark. it can get pretty creepy.
mostly i'm worrying if i'll step on duck poo without realising it.
sometimes i ring up seb and sookie to come pick me up and walk me back, and they ACTUALLY DO IT. such nice people. :) i think the constant darkness and the cold are getting to me.. i'm feeling slightly depressed and, occasionally, startlingly lonely. it doesn't really make sense because well, i'm surrounded by people almost all of the time, but yeah. sometimes you just need your family and your friends, and they aren't around, and that gets pretty tough.
i want to tell you guys more about the fifth of november and guy fawkes night, but i'll talk about it when i get pictures. :)
until then,
adios!
