yes. definitely the worst day of my life ( Read more... )

off to dinner in a sec. a real dinner this time too, haha. should be absolutely scrumptious. and with the best company in the world! i haven't been dumb enough to put make-up on again, but i am determined that i will not cry. how appropriate is it that we spend our last night together in a curryhouse? yay.

it's not happening. i can't do it. i won't do it. i don't want to go.
they just made it 100x harder to leave them all. i love them to pieces, i really do. never had friends like it. am ridiculously emotional at the moment! it's beyond words. they're too lovely.

oh. my. GOD. i am jealous. i mean, aside from the obvious (that i won't have them as housemates) their house is incredible.
in England, it's quite common for second-years and up to move out into student houses. they have student real estate agencies helping them, and most have competitive rates, and student-oriented perks. basically, all of my ( Read more... )

over the year, a common sight around C Block has been Lee with his posh cameras. he's been documenting student life in our corridor, and i just saw some of the evidence. there are about 80 black and white prints so far, and they're beautiful. they're not perfect or technical or special - but they are real. they are Cell Block. Emily, Jack, me, ( Read more... )

damn Brits, not having air conditioning. no wonder they're all terrified of heat. i think all my mates have now agreed they can't possibly ever visit me in Canada in summer, haha.

yeah... so much for writing about Trusday, haha. can't be bothered now. it was a good last night though, overall. will definitely miss going out in York ( Read more... )

train booking. not just the pressure of making check-in, of having enough time to sit before departing. that's bad enough. do we wake up at 4am or 5am? will i be leaving York in the dark? how do i say goodbye to everybody? once i've checked in, what will we do? i won't be able to stop crying. the whole day, the whole day will be a wet mess. the ( Read more... )

details of the STYC/Tru night to come, but more important at the moment...
i have enrolled! if you know me at all you know i love perusing course calendars and reading with awe about potential courses. i decided that since i was ever-so-delightfully accepted into the American Novel course, that i would take it instead of Shakespeare. (talking with ( Read more... )

it was a beautiful evening, but terrible at the same time.
i'm sure a detailed account will come tomorrow, once i'm sobered up, but let me say now that tonight was a special one. not just because i went to Montey's for the first time, or because Chris neglected me (not the end of the world, but annoying), or because the STYCs were tied up, eek.
