This damn report finally clicked into place in my head. Just now. It feels great! Even though i have strangely been less and less stressed out about it as the deadline approaches (is there something wrong with me?), it still bugged me. And now it makes sense! So far I only have the summary, some recommendations, and the first four pages (which are basically 'migrant domestic workers for dummies'), plus a bunch of random tables and figures, but it's not bad. One section should be written by the other girl I worked with, which leaves me with three sections, one of which is just 'why it would be idiotic to scrap the domestic worker visa' and therefore quite easy. To all of you out there this probably sounds like Greek, but I'm understanding myself and I like it. :)
Tonight I am meeting some of my coursemates, which will be nice - a few of them are now living in Summertown, not far from here, so hopefully they'll come visit me in the bar every now and then. Speaking of bar, the refurbishment is in the final planning stage and I am becoming very excited. This morning I discussed fabrics, flooring and colour schemes with the designer, and it's slowly coming together beautifully. Now we just need to hope that it will be approved by all five meetings in college (yes, it has to go through FIVE meetings!) so that it can actually happen in November as planned. The bar's my baby.
In other exciting news, I got the list of 'new faces'. See, Oxbridge colleges have a tradition of assigning an 'old hand' (sometimes called 'college parent') to all newcomers, and so now I've got my very own freshers! Most of them are people who are starting the first year of my course - something I've organised on purpose since I think it'll be nice for them to have the extra support/advice. I've already met one of them who seems to be very nice - I'm excited about meeting all the others!
I still need a holiday though.
