Um, yes. I am trying very hard not get get my emo on right now, which is tricky, given that I cried in the car on the way home, and cried in Tescos, and cried at a Hare Kirshna monk. (I gave him money to make up for it.) All in all, I am being a little bit embarrassing and I fully appreciate that I'm being silly, because it is only for a little while and a month at the most and if any else offers me a platitude at the moment, I will beat them around the head with the bag of crisps I am demolishing at a silly rate.
Basically, the room smells of him, and it's... not fair. I don't like being far apart. I'll get used to it again in time, but given that I've seen him every day during the holidays, this weekend is going to be really hard. Once I'm through that, I'll be okay. For now, I have some comfort food and some depressing music. That'll do.
...
Despite all my whinging about the state of the house, I've had a rather good week, as Fresher's Weeks go. Better than last year, certainly. I went to RockSoc last night and caught up with a few people, but mostly I've just had a lot of fun sitting in the kitchen and getting through a lot of wine. We played a very drunk game of Cranium, which is when all the wine was drunk the other night, which made my first day back as a Cleaning Monkey at the Union somewhat unpleasant. However, obviously not learning from my lesson, I went out to RockSoc last night and finally tried on my new corset. It is most magnificent and didn't fall apart once!
I mean... apart from the crappy condition of the house, things are going well. I'm getting on well with the other two housemates, particularly my neighbour, Corrine. We have a few drinks and then talk politics, which means I'm learning a lot about French anarchy and she's learning a lot about British environmentalism. Work is paying me £6.09 an hour, which very nearly makes up for the crappiness that is getting up at 6am in order to do this. My car is fixed for an affordable sum, which I cunningly paid for with a check so it wouldn;t be such a bad impact on my student loan, which turns up on Monday. I know where all my lectures are. I'm going to see Children Of Men tonight with Katie (mostly to stop me staying up all night and annoying her through the wall). I have work tomorrow night, which means free Chinese food OH YES.
I just really miss Simon. I know the year will fly by - in retrospect, it did last year - but nine months seems like an awfully long time right now.
I hope I do not cry on the freshers at the Societies Fayre on Sunday. That would be embarrassing, especially as I try to convince them I am both fun and mentally stable AND TOTALLY PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL.
See? I'm chirpy! *scoffs cake bar*
