My day's thoughts

 I'm writing this so I can focus on revision. I need to get stuff out of my head.

- I don't know how many times I've overheard people bantering about America in the learning zone. At first it was somewhat comical, but now it's starting to get on my nerves.

-A Pagan lady kicked my friends off of the trees we usually slackline on. Apparantly, it's a sacred spot--on the side of a hill on campus. Hmm.

-People don't wear sweats to class here

-No one sleeps in class

-I'm going to miss meeting new people at the climbing wall, and THEM commenting on MY accent

-Apparently I sound more Canadian than American

-Apparently nalgene waterbottles are really big

-I've finally gotten used to being the awkward international

-I really miss the sun

-I'm going to miss the mountaineering club. A lot.

-I've learned that I have a  love for bouldering

-I won't miss the slugs/worms

-I had my first Greggs pasty the other day--it gave me a stomachache

-I can't wait to hang out with people more than once in a while. Movie nights, dinner gatherings, campfires, star gazing, and staying outside late into the night just chillin.

-A lot of people are involved in sports here, not super intensely, but more numbers, and there's a ton to choose from

-lectures notes are hard to understand because they leave out different words than I would expect to be left out

-I miss making music with people

-I can't wait to be woken up by the sunshine

- I won't miss the wind or non-changing temperature

-I will miss stonewalls, sheep, old-ness and rolling hills in the lake district

-I won't miss my chemical oceanography class

-I will miss my international friends-a lot.

-I will miss gradbar and gradbar movie room

-I will miss netflix nights with the girls + ben

-People here really like Canada
