Stuff
I have my last exam tomorrow morning, which I'm very nervous about. English Literature. I need to spend the next half hour or so before I go to bed reading and memorising some quotes from the texts I'll probably write on.
I haven't seen or spoken to Marianna and Lora all day today. I wonder if they'll actually come by *my* room at all and say hello tomorrow instead of it always being the reverse.
Over the last two days I've watched five episodes of the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice (Colin Firth!) with Phil and Diana. It's so good! I'm really enjoying it, and I can easily see why so many people fell in love with it when they first watched it. It's so engaging - all the characters are so well fleshed-out even on screen that you care about all of them - or you feel something for all of them.
Tomorrow after my exam I'm going to go into town and buy a few colour pencils from the art shop, including a hot pink one. This is especially so I can finish a drawing which I started yesterday and want to colour with really bright colours (you'll see, when it's up on my DA gallery). I am turning into a recluse, in my room with my colour pencils and drawings. Part of me cares that maybe I'm not making enough effort to get out there and socialise with the people in my kitchen. Part of me doesn't care, because the people that matter will make the effort to come and see me. And I'll make the effort to spend time with people who want my company.
I feel a bit cut off, a bit lonely. But I'm mostly happy, and looking forward to going home for the summer.
That's all. I should probably get to bed and revise now.
