I made cake! And jambalaya. And chicken pineapple teriyaki. And cola pot roast (om nom red meat, we needs the iron, precious). And people over here keep calling me/each other 'my love' (trufax exchange: "Table for two, please." / "Brilliant. Sit yourself down here, my love - the specials today are..."), and it is ADORABLE, and I am pretty sure I am overcome by an embarrassingly touristy *_* expression every time it happens. Also, I can already hear myself starting to ape the Midlands accent. I am in for a world of mockery when I go home.

My mum called me on Friday night at 2 am (don't ask), and then again at like 10am on Saturday morning (YOU CALLED ME AT 2AM, OF COURSE I AM STILL ASLEEP MUM), and then tonight when I was on the verge of collapse from exhaustion, she waited until half an hour past our designated Call Time to phone.

Our first all-day museum study trip is on Thursday; we give group presentations on said trip in front of the class on Friday; our first essay is due in on Monday.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

djfajslkdfasf sophie you are the best

ps i would also *____* if people around me were all calling me/each other "my love," how completely adorable :D

My days are like. Evenly split between feelings of impending doom and crippling impostor syndrome, and loling at the sheer studentiness of my life.

E.g. I am in that weird, I-know-her-name-because-it's-on-her-door-but-we-never-actually-introduced-ourselves space with my sixth flatmate. Her room was empty for a while, except then I noticed NEW AND UNFAMILIAR DISHES in the kitchen, except then I think I ran into her at crazy o'clock in the morning when I went in search of a glass of water, only I wasn't wearing my glasses and in blurry-night-vision-mode she is very easily mistakeable for flatmate #5, and NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. WE HAVE JUST BEEN SAYING 'HI' SINCE.

Maybe I will suggest a group dinner or something for next weekend.

So awkward.

ajlkfjga a group dinner sounds like it might help, yeah XDDD;;

this has never happened to me before so alas i can't even properly commiserate! i am kind of a terrible hermit tho and would sometimes come home to find my roommate -- well, really... flatmate, i guess... though... nobody says that... in the states... sjdfklg -- chilling out in the kitchen with random people from my school / his major with whom i'd then have to make small talk every time i wanted to get a drink of water or make myself some dinner. ahhhh yeah that was a bit awkward. :D;;

So much win! :DDDD
