Thurs: Finalized essay/Went to hall and rooms was going to scream something in spanish/didn't, then someone else said benidicto....tense! Went to the Crown, really good cider and playlist, romantic lighting, interesting conversation about "the game" ie of college, or life, whatever.
Friday: Attempted pancakes at combibo's again...disappointing. Chocolate chip were okay and the bacon pancakes were just a stack of pancakes with bacon dumped on top of them. Wandered primark with fk. Got new fake glasses because N. stole my banker ones. Had last secondary tutorial with Edward. Of course, he took my essay at the end- the one where I wrote in the last sentence/did not title because he NEVER looked at them himself before-but went pretty well and obv Joyce was a much better subject than something else. Then wandered Oddbins to find Argentinian wine for the Tovs/M&S. Dressed in black dresses to make like sex and the city, since rooms is obsessed, and walked to Jamal's for some Indian and Ine's send-off. Went really well at beginning. Senore showed up/everything went to hell/bad news for rest of the night
Saturday: Went to Tuck w. fk for coffee/chicken tikka while rooms packed, helped her to bus station to see her off to NY, got Thai iced tea to console ourselves, then sat at Red Lion for hours to talk/watch the Argentina v. Nigeria game, witnessed crazy homeless man sit down with a table of Nigerians, blocking their view of the game. Ha. ha. Read/back to Gloucester to pick up S. and eat at noodle nation/watch the US v. England game at Red Lion again! and stood next to guys dressed in crazy costumes with sheep balloons handcuffed to their arms.
Sunday: Worked/Ate paninis and milkshake at covered market/worked worked worked on poetry/computer lab party/walked to cowley to eat at russian restaurant and had pelmeni! but not very good borsch/Gnd's for cones and sugar sugar/walked to computer lab to print under an orange sky
Monday: Had tutorial at 9.15-WHAT?-last, v. good in terms of work and talk about reading of poetry, but sad because it's MY LAST. I want no more classes ever, and I need to come back here and go to a grad college. I quite like the sound of Linacre. Hm. Then slept a bit more, went to Tuck for coffee and covered market for salad, library, bought the floral oxfords I've been coveting for about a month, finally got some more dinner points/chilled outside w. S for a bit and completely ignored our books. Meeting M. after Hall either at New College bar or King's Arms to cause a little bit of ruckus and see what's up and about 8ttttth week on a monday night.
