Ah. I had to say goodbye to Norwich, to UEA and to my pals last week. That was hard. I only met a lot of my pals this semester, and we had some pretty instant bonding. I feel closer to them than I've felt to people I've known for years. I have to say, I did get a bit weepy. And drunk. I got very drunk. Bearsuit (Norwich band) challenged me to down smirnoff ices. I did- two of the things, from full capacity. And I drunk more than the band. And they were more drunk than me. I had to keep up the hardened drinker image for Scotland, see. (even though, between you and me, I'm a total lightweight.) But everyone thinks its good I'm going. they now see me as a sort of free hotel in scotland. I suppose it didn't help when I told them that the streets of Glasgow are pavwed with indie kids, and told them about the late licences at pubs, the cool music shops, the endless record shops, the wonderful clothes shops, and the gigs, the venues, the bands you might see.... Still, I'm gonna miss it down south. Spent the entire week with my pal Darren, just slacking. It got to the stage where we didn't even bother to e mail each other anmore to say "wanna go to the bowl (uni cafe) for a coffee?". Instead I'd walk in, and there he'd be. (early riser, Darren. Always on campus from about 9am.) We chatted, we'd go to the pub, we'd wait for his girlfriend to pick him up. we'd do that for entire days. We'd do all sorts of things. Sitting outside when it was nice. Sitting inside when it wasn't. Talking about everything, putting the world of music to rights. you gotta miss that. Well, I gotta. Gonna miss Tim, and Sara too. Saras a darling. a sexy darling. Tim's a darling. A brainy darling. There's a bit of me that wishes I'd spent more time with them, rather than go off to see B+S. but then, I'd only regret not seeing b+s while I had the chance. So how is a girl supposed to choose? is Stuart as much fun as Tim? Does Chris make a good replacement for Darren? and Isobel vs Sara? who would win? (my money's on Sara. shes hardcore. I wouldn't fight her.) Then theres my other pals. Could Stevie ever be better than James Carnaby? Sarah or Sonja? Richard against wee Hellman? Hmm. Well, now I'm back home, and I got a tickly coff. Graduation is on the 12th. Gotta find a job. Big scary world. Me no like. Take it away. Get me a new one. A CLEAN one. right. thats about it.
