listless, restless (and alone)

[bohofaery]

So I'm back in Leicester again, for the first time since I left school. I couldn't sleep at all yesterday morning, couldn't bear the thought of missing those last few hours with Alex - but in the end I was so caught up in the act of leaving (I don't like leaving people, but I've always loved leaving places) it didn't emotionally hit me until after

Thankyou! I don't know how long I'll keep it. I just wanted something where I felt at home just a little, seeing as it's all so confusing in reality. I love curling up on windowsills to read. I think my major coping mechanism this week is going to be reading lots and lots of books. And making things for my room at university - the drape in the background of the graphic will hopefully become cushions! (if I can get the sewing machine to work)

Oh my sweet, how I wish I could hug you. I'm almost glad you were cheerful. If both of us had been wretches at once it might have got very messy. I was pretty fine after you left, but I'm always terrible at goodbyes themselves.

I adore the new layout! It's utterly, utterly you, and so gorgeous and classics-ish. It's even got your scarf!

The boxroom issue is indeed crap, but it really is only a week. I hope you'll find somewhere in Cambridge that will almost instantly be yours, even if it's not your room. Sometimes I come across spaces like that; they're not really home, but you can at least feel at peace, which would probably be enough for the moment, anyway.

Damnit. A hug would be nice. Today is IKEA day (and phone shopping - bah!) so you might well have more fun than me. Never mind, eh? With any luck I'll get bought pretty things ...

Oh, and glad you approve! The fact that you like it is worth more than anything anyone else could say, really. I'd quite like to do something along a similar vein for my site, but I think that's something I'll have to work myself up to. (My domain terrifies me, to be perfectly honest, but there's something compulsive about it...) and hurrah! my scarf is famous!

One of the reasons I love Cambridge so much - and Oxford too - is because there are just so many little places you could just fall in love with. Hidden patches of beauty everywhere - like London only more precious, somehow, because it isn't ruined by all the consumerism. And Cambridge has more trees. Which is always good.

*heart*

Raaaaah! You'll have a phone! Txting galore! Well, mine are free anyway. I'm in the scary library for the Very First Time on someone else's ID - we're all at the 'checking email' stage of the day.

The site... I like the buttons particularly. Lots of browns and russet-reds?

I just spoke to your brother. If you're reading this, ring meeeeeeeee! (It's not so bad... we went to the pub at 5...)

There are many trees in Stratford. You must come here.

love you!
