Snow!

Me and April, she's from Hong Kong!

This bird must live in the park, I see it all the time.

View from my window.

University Cathedral

I climbed to the top of one of the towers at the university.

Snow!

Pound Mart is like the Dollar Store, thats where I bought all my kitchen supplies.

The Armadillo

I finally gave in and bought a UK mobile phone. It was only 25 pounds for the phone, UK sim card, international sim card and minutes/texts. Pretty good deal. Paula went w/me and we had some decent conversation and then we went to a grocery store I didn't know existed. In line to pay at the grocery store, I of course dropped my new phone, which then triggered a conversation w/an older lady in front of me, but she was really friendly so I didn't mind! I finally got some pretzels, which I have missed eating terribly much. I also spent a pound ($1.50) on a little Wallace and Gromit figurine from a machine. And I bought some Wensleydale cheese! (which I ate in England and is also from Wallace and Gromit).

It snowed here yesterday, and it was a pretty good snow, but it was all melted by this morning.

I felt really lonely yesterday. I wanted to go out in the snow, and I asked one of my hall mates if they wanted to and they said no. So I just went for a walk by myself. Then I get back and Paula comes in and was like oh we were just outside. I was like, oh. Then I go out to the bathroom as Paula is leaving and she went to the girls room that I had earlier asked to go outside, and they watched a movie! I was kinda offended they didnt invite me :( But then Paula asked if I wanted to go eat dinner w/her and Becca (girl she watched movie with). So I said yes and then all they talked about the whole time was how they are gonna all rent a house together next semester, and so I really didn't talk the whole time, I felt like such an outsider. Then Paula left to go to her BF's for the night and I went back to my room all by myself. Luckily, I went and made hot chocolate to make myself feel better and ran into Emma, and I talked to her for a good 10mins. which made me feel better. Then the fire alarm went off, and I talked to a few other ppl and soon I wasn't so depressed anymore. I hate that I am so dependent on other people for my happiness. I can be perfectly content being all alone, but knowing that they didn't invite me and they know I was just sitting all alone in my room, really makes me feel bad, like they don't like me or something.

So I'm going to go watch a movie w/the americans from my group tonight, hopefully that will make me feel better. But for now, I should probably do some reading.
