November 4th, 2006 Re member reMembr the Fifth of november

Celebrations tonight on the Meadows. Can already hear the fireworks from my bedroom. Would love to go down to the Firth of Forth to watch some but it’s too cold to travel that far.

Charlie, my new little birdman, is singing to his reflection. He’s most sexy.

Our class got lectured in the middle of this past week about how we’ve been integrating poorly with the other 2nd Year students. We’d already had several professors walk in with the comment, “I see the reputation that proceeds you is justified.” Oh well. It felt to me (proverbial swat on the head with newspaper) culturally unjustified. We can only do the best with what we are! But then I was assured the problem was more specific than that and we internationals from across the pond are…… fine. Realized today that my habits have come home to haunt me: the words you think become the truth you live. Am now truly behind in my studies - by at least a month. Thank you CB for the awareness lesson. Now here’s one I’ve been holding onto since the start of school, written by the selftaughtgirl.

Haven’t been maintaining my journals lately. Am too busy, doing what? Not checking facebook. Going to birthday parties? Eating chocolate biscuits and rice pudding? Had breakfast at Toast today. It’s just not the same. Close, yes, and good but no cigar.

    I love that PDF - Self Taught girl…passing to some chicks that could use it.

    Hang in there, you’re doing fine.
