i love pictures! yay. pretty lake. do your windows go all the way to the floor or is that just the picture? i'm slightly jealous that you have your own room. only 17 days until christmas!
whoa!!! i'm so jealous of your view!! i look out my window and i see the back of a bush. so not even its pretty side. ok, that's it. i absolutely have to get over there.
Oh, and my window in my old accommodation overlooked a street, a parking lot, a hardware store, and the silliest bridge known to man. Every night, drunk people sang loudly as they walked home at 4:00 am.
The bridge spanned some railroad tracks. Pretty narrow, right? But the bridge was a series of ramps with a very low gradient that twisted around and around until it reached a high platform (high enough for a train to pass underneath it, which happened quite frequently... and loudly. It used to make my room shake). Then, another series of ramps twisted around again so that you could get back down to the ground. On a good day, when the bridge was dry and I was wearing tennis shoes, it would take ten minutes to cross the bridge. On a bad day, when the bridge was wet and I was wearing heels (which would frequenly get caught in the gaps in the planks on the bridge), it would take 20 minutes. Also, the whole area smelled like poo because there was a very stinky quay nearby.

I'm homesick.
And a little drunk.
And very behind on my essay.

So yeah, that's why I love my new flat so much.
