Things I've leant recently

• Waterproof shoes are a must if you don't want soppy wet socks.
• Slag is Brittish for slut, but a little bit milder.
• I am capable of sleeping in till 2:30.
• It gets dark at 4.
• You can get Indian food ordered to campus, but it might take up to an hour if you're unlucky.
• I don't like shopping.
• I want to make my own mayonnaise because the store bought ones are crap.

Things that are bad to buy in UK:

• dried fruit (from the posh shop or 'poundland', the cheap shop, makes no difference).
• bread, unless you buy ridiculously expensive bread. I will make my own instead. They sell packs of multi-flours into which you just add water. I'll try later.
• Honey.
• Home-brand tea.
• I had Amazing black tea in an expensive but oh so cute high tea place that I went to with fellow international students recently. I don't think they sell the leaves take away, but if they did it's probably too expensive for me, anyway.

• Poundland is great for buying cheap kitchenware. I found reusable baking sheets (washable), baking tins, etc.
• I can still do 20 push ups easily, but I can't even go into bridge coz my arms are too tired.
• The seemingly waterproof sheet I put down under my drying washing has seeped through the floor and made a damp patch in the carpet, which is currently airing out.
• YouTube side panels, where they list similar videos to the ones you choose, are both useful and devilishly designed to keep you watching for hours.
• The Matrix is a mindfuck (excuse my French), and excellent to talk over with friends.
• People will talk as if they are in a club (ie noisily) in the halls at half ten at night.
• I am very gradually picking up Brittish slang.
• It is seen as sluttish for girls to have lots of sex, whereas for guys having lots is worthy of a pat on the back. Some girls choose not to care what the guys jokingly (but rudely, I think) call girls who have sex. Even the ones who have sex once or twice, or the occasional casual fling, get called a slag or slut. One girl thinks of it as a compliment and laughs it off.
• I am not sleeping well. I blame lack of yoga and excess of YouTube.
• I have a few homework tasks that I haven't been bothered doing and will do tomorrow, my day off. Three day weekends rule!
• My room is semi-respectable but on the messy side. I can't be bothered with it now.
• It's easier to wash a few garments at a time and let them dry on the clothes rack in my room, but have to be careful to wring them out as much as possible otherwise it drips and makes the room smell like mouldy water.

So, on that note, goodnight! (Or good morning, as I should say to those of you in Oz!)
I promise to post photos tomorrow as I will be picking up my camera chord tomorrow.
