revision

Started off today with an absolutely hellish morning - my own fault for being too lazy to get up at 10 like I planned. I was supposed to be on campus for midday but at around that time I was still waiting for the shower to free up, and constantly tip-toeing out of my room clad only in my dressing gown to check if the coast was clear. It wasn't - I found myself peeking straight into the face of my housemate's dad more than once. In the meantime my room looked like a bomb had hit it, my hair would not behave itself and I learned the hard way that in future, I have to iron my favourite Zara shirt-dress after washing or it will ride up constantly. Not a good look when you're in leggings.

However!...Had a good revision sesh today with a couple of my friends - we were sat in the Courtyard for approx. 6 hours, not a lie. We even made friends with the bar staff (including the deadpan and oddly charming manager who bought us our first coffees of the day) and probably amused quite a few people by playing 'wasp tennis' around our table (it wouldn't sod off so we kept batting it with our folders). I feel like I definitely understand the stuff for the exam now (just as well when it's tomorrow!) so hopefully, the next 5 days will go swimmingly!

Got home, successfully pumped up my bike tyres (and felt very practical) and then tidied my room to make it exam-friendly. That actually included DUSTING. I kid you not. And actually the result makes me wonder why I haven't actually done it before (a fact my mum doesn't need to know) - everything seems a bit fresher, less musty, less clogged up. (By the way I was listening to Spotify at the time - and I've actually discovered I love love love Melanie C's album 'Beautiful Intentions' - seriously, if you're in need of general empowerment, or if you've had a rubbish relationship etc, listen to this album. The lyrics are brilliant - they summed up this past year for me in general.) I did unfortunately manage to kind of damage my desk a wee bit in the process though... note to self: don't spray surfaces with bleach when trying to remove a wax stain. Then definitely do not try to scrape away the wax with a knife because you WILL take a chunk out of your desk.

Oh well! That'll be coming out of my deposit then. *Sigh*
You're welcome, Sinclair.

That's all from me this evening... off for a listen to 'Baba O'Riley/Teenage Wasteland', then bed. Night all! :)
