 Big moment in history - Eric has finally been replaced after 3 faithful years at my side (and in my bag/pocket)! The new phone is gorgeous, another Ericsson, white with turquoise detailing (which almost perfectly matches my new scarf, haha). I think I'm going to call it Erica though, as it is much too feminine to be Eric II.

Anyway. Now to the introspective "serious" part of this particular monologue (I know you're looking forward to it haha):

I'm kind of getting to the stage where I wish I was living in a uni college, like the ones at Sydney Uni, Newcastle, even Armidale (although from most accounts they're probably way to wild for me!!). I love all my housemates but there's rarely a moment when we're all in the house, as everyone is doing their own thing with their own separate groups of friends. And even though I get to spend alot of time with Jess, she doesn't need my company as much as I need hers as both her boyfriend and one of her really close friends live on our floor, so she already has the comfort of ready-formed friends. I don't seem to be meeting anyone because there is quite a concrete clique that has formed already, and if you're unfortunate enough not to be in it, you never hear about what's on and when people head out. As you might guess - I'm unfortunately not in this clique, despite my best efforts. I haven't really made any friends - sure, there are people I natter to when I happen to see them around - and it's bumming me out. I'm getting so heartbreakingly lonely, and I want to change that, but it's so hard to meet people here. It would be better if there were alot of people around all the time, and constant parties and mixers and mingling opportunities. I think I'm freaking out because I'm not getting the uni social life i always expected to have, and that I know everyone else is having elsewhere. It's the 3rd week of uni and I'm still not settled in or feeling 100% comfortable, while some of my friends at other unis have already found their social niche and a firm group of friends.

So if you have a chance, I'm sort of after advice/tips/psychological analysis. Be brutal if you will, please, I just need a bit of comfort from the people I know and love!!! (That's YOU!)
