I'm going to York tomorrow! Yay! A place of castles! A quaint medievalish town! I think I'll love the place to death. And on Sunday, I'm going to Manchester! I've never done so much travelling in so short a time. I've gone to Dubai (technically), London, Leeds, now York, then Manchester. Oh wait, I think I have, when I went to America and the tour took us to a gazillion places in 2 weeks! But anyhow, next I want to go to Scotland, then Spain, then France, then Italy..... Oh! The things I'll see!

Why hasn't my computer arrived? Maybe it's because I have only just sent out the customs for today. Argh. Maybe my computer will be sent here over the weekend! Do they work on weekends? I dount it. Then I'll have to wait till Monday! How I long to click on my mouse and listen to my MP3s and type on my keyboard! (The one's here are slightly different. I'm not used to it. I always end up with typos. Just the symbols tho')

Today, like every other day - school! It's not boring. It's actually quite fun and interesting. I got myself officially registered with the school already! Now I have my university card with my lovely picture on it - my discount card. Heh. I get 10% discount at Topshop and Miss Selfridge and tns other places with this card! (I also got a rail card for cheaper rail fares.)

There are many funny "morning drinks" available here. Besides the usual Horlicks, which comes in individual packages, there's hot chocolate, hot chocolate with little marshmallows on top, and even hot chocolate with crunchie bits (the chocolate bar) on top as well! Lots to eat here. My diet is falling apart. Non-existent I'd say.

My mum's feeding me too much (and she tells my dad I'm not eating enough!) Maybe when she leaves I'll eat less (because I'll definitely cook less) and exercise (bosercise, ballet, gym and aerobics!). The cold weather (which I'm horribly not used to) is also doing its part in getting rid of some fats. Keeping warm here requires tons of energy!

I'll give myself the night off. I want to read my book (which I'm nearly fininshing *gasp!*). This place is starting to feel a teeny bit like home.
