(no subject)
Suddenly everyone in my flat is talking about who they are going to share a house with next year. Here's a chance for people in second year Uni to tell me how they picked their housemates.
It was one of those things where everybody starts randomly talking about it. This girl I met (and am having lots of fun with) told me how she came to live with who she lives with, my current flatmates are one by one coming out with their concerns, and some friends from outside Uni have asked me what I think about it.
I hadn't.
It's only the end of November, the Chirstmas lights have only just gone up here (a little later than London anyway) and I'm still only just starting to get used to these guys I'm living with anyway.
I know I need females in the house, I need that level of conversation and some of the girls have said I'm pretty easy to talk to in a non-sleezy kind of way - I think that is a compliment. But I need blokes too for banter and sanity's sake.
I can see how planning about it early has advantages; getting a place sorted before the rush, finding how many people exactly have to find the right sized place, knowing everyone we will be living with. But then there is people pulling out on us, people changing and perhaps to an extreme where we have to say no to them living with us.
Blergh.
Then there are always girl troubles at Uni. I've met a second year who is exactly what I'm looking for. She is a director, and I got to know her by being Assistant Director halfway though its conception. She works in the bar of the Wycombe Wanderers (where I went to go see Wasps earlier :) ). She is also doing Creative Writing, but is interested more in the writing for films and poetry side.
And I'm starting to have feelings for a flatmate. She is the exact opposite of what I thought I would be attracted to. In a way that really helps; it is fresh and always exciting, she keeps me from letting my mind wander too much and scare me, little things mean a lot to her and I notice them more too. I don't know; things are going so great with the director, even though it is very early to say anything, and I feel I am just trying to destroy the great thing I have because I'm worried of letting my guard down and let someone new get to know me.
Ah well. At least I'm posting again.
