Being at home is really getting to me. After two whole weeks of being surrounded by tons of people, staying at home alone with no one to talk to is VERY boring. Actually, I should get a move on with my work, since after this week, I'm not going to be very free. You know when you really have nothing to do when you start planning your day around what is on tv- there's CSI today :D
I kind of miss big brother on uk tv- it practically showed every day, and people followed it fairly closely, judging by the amount of coverage it received by trashy newspapers. I have also very sadly found out that I had spent only half of the money I brought, and could have bought more stuff >:( like um the gap shoes! or the primark things that were so incredibly cheap: 2 pounds for a pair of sunglasses, 7 for shoes- about $6 and $21 respectively. I shouldn't be judging the worth of my trip by the amount of things I bought though, but by the experiences I had. And sometimes I feel I spent my time thinking about the wrong things, and so I remember those things, but not the valuable bits. For example, in dalefort, I was mulling over stupid stupid witching (what do you get when you put 39 hormonal females together 24/7? much like big brother, in a way.) and making them into issues of loyalty and assertiveness - but what are the chances of working with these people again anyway? And the teachers could see quite plainly through our petty rivalries and very sensibly not make it an issue. I suppose these things happen quite often on overseas trips and to not carry it over to school life is a smart thing to do.
