Change of plans

So, my initial London plans are cancelled. At first, it left me in a haze of self-pity, but now I'm very busy doing what I always do to cheer myself up: planning!

Not only have I made plans for the weekend (helping Elke moving to her student room, going to see The Futureheads, having a sleep-over at Elke's room afterwards - consider it an inauguration of her new place), we (Nick, Elke and I - the original team-up for this weekend) have been making new London plans!
1. Our planned trip is moved to February, when we have a free week after our exames. That way we can go six days instead of three, double the fun!
2. Impatient I was born, impatient I will be. Before the previously described trip, I'll go to London on my own in a month or two. I've already found a place to stay (someone I know from Facebook has got a great Georgian house in Westminster), so let's hope things will turn out fine this time.

Apart from that: tomorrow is my last day at my student job, which makes me very sad - and no, I'm not being sarcastic. I love my collegues so much and I will miss them enourmously. Saying goodbye to them was a very hard thing to do last year and I'm rather positive that it won't be any easier this year.
Today they took me out to eat pizza during our lunch break (just like they did last year), which I think is such a nice gesture. I feel so at ease in the company of these people. Tomorrow is going to be so heartbreaking. :(

  2. I'm glad you were able to reschedule the trip. :) I'm probably going to go over there soon myself to visit my best friend, but the train is rather costly. As I almost immediately spend any money I get my hands on, it's not easy to put some aside to fund this plan of mine. :D

  5. Yes, twice, but never for a longer period than three days unfortunately. Great city.
