Wha!
So, tomorrow night I have to go out with some friends >_> I have forgotten how to dress myself up, so I have decided to do some preparation, and have realised I have nothing to wear. Bearing in mind that my wardrobe consists or trackie pants, hoodies and tees, I really had not much choice. Add to that the fact that I had about 1kg allowance fro clothes after I had packed all my textbooks in my bag, and I have a choice of beige or navy sweatpants, and a few vest. Tres elegante. So...there is also the fact that I have to get the bus into town. For those who don't live in the countryside, this is a bigger feat than it sounds. First I have to walk 20 min in wild weather, possibly through mud, and avoid wolf whistling. Then I have to sit with the grannies and listen to war time stories while the bus comes. When it does arrive, usually late, I have to endure a 50 min stomach turning journey into town in a bus that smells like old people, sweat and pies. Tasty.
The weather really is bad at the moment too. The wind is whistling, and it's bitterly cold. As least the sun is shining, right? Anyway, kind of nervous meeting up with everyone. I haven't seen them in two years. TWO YEARS. Where has the time gone. It still feels like yesterday, mind, the island never really changes.
Right on cue for Easter, the sheeps have begun lambing. The fields are scattered with little white balls of wool, pronking up and down the mounds of hay and grass. Right now they are huddling under their mums, to keep from being blown away. I'm so lucky to have a front row seat for the show that is nature, however it does keep me from concentrating at the task at hand...i.e study. Not long to go now.
Anyway, viruses to study. Joy.
