While I try to restrict my use of drama student speak to Facebook and jokey conversations with the girl who started my tendency to type in ALL CAPS, a very large part of me wants to add 'ARGH ARGH ARGH' onto the end of this title. How can it be 6 days? It was 2 weeks last time I looked, I swear. How am I not currently drifting on a pile of organised lists and packed bags. How can I still only have a vague idea as to what tshirts and CDs I want to take? Why is my bag already so full? Why can't I go around talking in capitals until this all goes away?
OK, if I'm honest, I have mostly finished- just have tshirts, shoes, and some miscellaneous washing to search through now, and the plan is for that to be finished today. Then tomorrow I can do all the 'etc' stuff - DVDs, dictaphones, folders- leaving the rest of the week for me to pack my carry on and generally OCD. I've banned myself from youtube, Skype, almost all of FB, and, more for my own sanity than anything else, fanfiction.net. Mostly because I shouldn't have to continually prove that no matter what the topic, after 15 minutes' worth of browsing one will need brain bleach and a large wire brush. With all this in place, then, I should be able to play tetris that little bit faster.
The landlord continues to be lovely, although I have now learned that the apartment doesn't come with an oven, so no baking for me next year. Adaption shouldn't be a problem (although my mother's face should be a fantastic sight when she finds out), but it is slightly frustrating. Especially as over the past week I've started making cakes quite regularly. Raspberry chocolate apple cake is something else, let me tell you.
I got my money sorted out last night, and hopefully should actually have some breathing room, although my tuition fees will be coming straight from my savings account. I'm currently more worried about having enough cash to get over there- £240 for vision is a painful price tag indeed. Although my new glasses are cool. And vivid red. And allow me to see again...
Jessica out.
