My roomies are both away this weekend, leaving me with a big ol' empty room. It's been a little lonely, but a little amazing at the same time. I forgot how nice it was to have some time for yourself. I also got out of the room a lot and hung out with other London Semester people who I don't spend as much time with. I tell you, being in a triple definitely makes you socially stunted, especially when all three of you are on, for the most part, the same schedule. Same classes, same assignments (which means same busy and quiet periods) and we all know everyone so we all basically have the same social schedule. It's good, because there's always people there, but it's mindless because there's always people there! I'm enjoying it actually, but I think I'll also be glad to go back to my regular social habits.
I've been really stressed about my workload lately, and also getting homesicky because I was having troubles calling home or talking on msn or anything (no phone and no computer make meg something something). So I had a minor breakdown about that on Thursday night, and, to my relief, my friend Blair said she didn't know how I was doing this semester without a computer. It really justified my frustration, and the breakdown gave me the push I needed to do something about it. I talked to my friend Liz, who's also going through this sans CPU, and we decided to split the cost of renting a computer for our last month here. I'm really happy about it. This way I can get all my work done guilt-free, and connect with home a LOT more often.
Last night a bunch of us went to this Canada themed bar in Covent Garden called The Maple Leaf. It was so cool! It felt so stereotypically Canadian. It felt like a log cabin, there was a stuffed bear, hockey memorabilia all over the place, aboriginal art, and Canadian beer! They had Sleeman on tap, and they sold poutine! So of course we indulged. Oh! And they do pitchers, that's virtually unheard of over here! So it was a really good night. :)
I suppose that's all for now. Things are good. :)
