Christmas Break

I am nearing real personhood. I opened my own bank account and started a mobile phone contract all by myself (but with some parental consultation). Those small accomplishments make me feel like I can survive out here by myself.

I'm not sure who knows this, but I'll be staying in the UK over Christmas break doing... something. Most people have had really surprised reactions to this seeming sentence of loneliness and homesickness. Don't worry, everyone. I'll be fine. I'm working 20 hours a week now and it may increase to 40 over the term break, which will keep me busy. I am still considering going on the climbing trip to Morocco, although I'm not sure if my skill level is up to par yet. Also, I'm up for some winter exploring.

Ok, once again, I'm blogging on my lunch break. I have to go now. So perhaps a more thorough recap later.

Update to Kill Time

I'm writing this from an LSE computer lab and the keys are messing me up. I took a walk to LSE this morning at 10AM with a group from my dorm and it turned out to be less helpful than expected. I pretty much have no idea how I got here. Also, I forgot my map but luckily, there's one enclosed in a packet I did remember to bring. The LSE campus isn't much to look at and no one really knows what's going on. Oh well. Friendliness is at a minimum. In fact, I just totally helped a French post-graduate and she just left without saying anything. Haha. Ok, I must be off to find the Peacock theater for "induction."
