and so i too have joined the ranks of those who are doing the 365 days project; a self portrait a day, how long will it last? hopefully i'll be able to go the whole 365 days, if not... we'll see.
the essay was finished on wednesday (4,700 words or thereabouts!), and since then i've been taking things slowly, doing some work, watching a lot of grey's anatomy, trying to chill out properly before term gets going and i become a ball of stress.
friday night was heavy and hilarious, and involved dancing to italian music at a bop at green, recognising people from myspace (but not saying hello, silly me), drinking a shot of absinthe and 88% vodka (a killer, i'm telling you), orgies on the dancefloor (but without sex) and very silly/very serious conversations with m over chips&cheese on the way back. god bless the kebab vans.
i now have a cold again, i've lost count of how many times it's been. echinacea doesn't seem to work, i'm taking every vitamin known to man, and still... sigh. the weather in this town sucks. or is it the stress? i haven't actually felt so stressed out. i've finally got to the point where i pretty much don't give a crap (following someone's suggestion, i think my new year's resolution should be "thou shall not worry"). so no stress.
even though my eczema has come back with a vengeance.
at the moment i'm finding it very amusing to read the two uni papers - the oxford student and the cherwell. they're full of stories on colleges banning bops because of excessive vomiting, oxford undegrads doing lots of coke and so on. it's fantastic.
can you tell i'm bored?
(i guess it's time for that macroeconomics book, right?)
