Blue 2, Bay J, JR

I never thought i would be disappointed at a fire drill that evacuates the library. It was 7pm and i had been fidgeting for all of 2 hours trying to engage brain with partial pressure gradients and the Laws of Doyle, Henry and Fick...I was actually getting on with it when the alarm went off and my friend Neelesh said it usually takes 40 minutes before they can let everyone back in. BOOOO.
It was snowing outside so i fought my way onto the rush hour bus heading home and did absolutely nothing for the rest of the night...
I don't know whats suddenly happened, maybe its going from having a case for the weekend, to having one Monday to Thursday but i seem to not have any time any more. It feels quite nice, i feel proper. if that makes sense.
I sit on blue 2 in bay J by the floorlength window so i can see everyone coming in and out...John Rylands, whoever he was, has had the library named after him, is referred to as though he were still alive e.g.
'Where are you going?'
'To see JR'..

I spend monday afternoons, all day tuesday and wednesday in John's company. Ive started noticing regulars and everything. Lammmmeeee!

Apart from that, Ive started French which is good but i have to admit its hard getting back into it after 4 years and realising that you really arent very good anymore. Especially when 1 of the girls in the class speaks 5 languages, including French, pretty much fluently. WHY IS SHE THERE???????????

Today in Labs we got to be 'lab rats'- totally got to take loads of Salbutamol (aka asthma inhaler)...had to have full blood pressure/pulse etc checked by a doctor before i took it- my bp was 94/72, very low..and then we all got the shakes and thought it was really funny...Realised i take my inhaler totally wrong. whoopsss!!

Other things going on in my life include:

Glee- Sue Sylvester is AMAZING!! Theres something about that saccarine all american program that makes me happy.. Mondays at 8:55 involve me running down from the top of the house shouting 'GLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' and then all 7 of us cramming onto our 3 2 person sofas to watch Mr Schu and the rest sing and dance and ruin their ever so comlicated lives. Its pretty much the only thing that brings the house together...our love of Fin and the other guy who plays football and who looks like he has had his hair waxed into a brazillian. on. his. head!
(ive got both soundtracks. im not even ashamed to admit that)

14 Tatton View, our house for next year. Seriously i trawled around 7 houses and i was pretty fed up and at my wits end when we stumbled across this little slice of perfection! its got a garden. with grass! not just a giant gravelly litter tray. in the garden is a bbq pit and a pagoda and trees with fairy lights and a sofa?!
Its got a rave basement with UV paint everywhere and one of those clothes racks that you hoist to the ceiling of the kitchen that reminds me of (very) happy times at my grannys. Its even got working fireplaces. not sure what genius decided that was a wise idea for a student house but anyway, i cant wait to move in!!

The Summer! Its ages away, but im going to central america for a month with my housemate Paul who is going to be in belize on a Zooooooology field trip ( they say field trip, i say holiday...we get 'trips' to hospitals. def not the same thing!) SO im going to meet him. i just bought a guidebook. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Also the Bestival line-up has been announced! VERY EXCITING ALSOOOOOO.
so apart from being so busy and tired i dont know what day it is (i constantly hope its friday) all is dandy in MTOWN.
wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
