So it's finally snowed properly and stuck in Newcastle!

EXCEPT THAT NOW I'M LEAVING TO LONDON TO SEE MY HOBBY AND ANDY!

Apparently there's a stomach bug going around campus. Unfortunately I happened to catch this bug on what is known as "pancake day." The day Americans call Fat Tuesday (I forgot what they call it in England) is celebrated in England by eating pancakes to get rid of all the food. The boys went to Mr. Lynch's for pound-pancakes last night. Emma ( Read more... )

I worked at the Heworth Constitution Club again tonight. Two more times this weekend. And I have a shift at the Gosforth Racecourse tomorrow. It's fun working at an agency when you get hours. Heworth is especially fun ( Read more... )

I can't find my Peter Pan peanut butter.

THERE'S BUBBLE TEA IN NEWCASTLE!

Emma and I are going to Chinatown tomorrow before dinner. Haha, we'll see if I can wait that long. :)

Most of the lads are all in Prague right now. (They're bringing me back a green bottle!) It's, therefore, insanely quiet on the hall.

I'm going to Belfast tomorrow! (Today, technically.)

I really like the Arctic Monkeys CD. Get it next month and ask me about things you wouldn't understand, like "trackie bottoms tucked in socks" and the like.

Update for me and my life ( Read more... )

Cello ordered. Royal Air Mail says it should be here on Thursday.

I might go to Belfast next weekend. The lads are going to Prague on Tuesday, but before then, I am going to go to a proper English drive-thru. It's one of those strange, yet fascinating things I've been wanting to do since I saw my first one in the 'burbs of Newcastle.

I went for a powerwalk/jog with Anna today all the way to Byker (the "dodgy" bit of Newcastle). We meant to find the Millennium Bridge but ended up turning rather than going straight and missing the road with the giant purple arc down it. Anyway, I know how to get to a drive-through KFC and a BP petrol station now ( Read more... )
