International banking....still sucks! I somehow ended up with two opened bank accounts, and had to spend the afternoon between lectures going downtown to sort this out. No wonder they thought I was laundering money! Anyhow, everything should be back to normal, and I should have only closed one of them, but who knows at this point. The real

Let's say you've got a very limited budget for the upcoming week - purely hypothetically, let's say you only had four pounds and three pence. How would you choose to feed yourself? Perhaps you'd go for essential, filling foods such as bread, potatoes, pasta, beans, milk, cheese, etc. Or perhaps you'd buy Smarties. This is another one for the annals of the College Survival Guide.

Additionally, I think it would be educational if for the remainder of the semester you continued the tradition of making comparisons between the Welsh and smurfs. It sounds like a good graduate dissertation. (Speaking of which, book recommendation, in line with Borges, Out of Sheer Rage)

Beyond your generic emo-moment and castles in the sky, only slight progress on the staid approach to life. But given that the stated goals are to avoid emo-moments, as they are cliche journal occurrences, I believe the best recourse is to make your entries more like TV. So: I'd highly appreciate it if, in addition to the Smurf comparisons, you also provided more sitcom like summaries of your life - preferably with a simple plot where one of the flatmates does something that is misperceived by some subset of other flatmates, and during a period of confusion hilarity ensues, after which a sobering epiphanic conclusion is provided for all. Boys from next door should make frequent appearances to add to aforementioned hilarity.

Speaking of hilarity ensuing, I find your assumption that I am writing these journal entries with the intent of entertaining you quite comic!
