My day, sadly, has been very quiet. Well not sadly at all. I finished my drawing of Sophie - Noel's daughter. I have to show him that soon. I've done all my clothes washing - tomorrow I'll be doing my bed sheets and stuff and changing them. Strangely I feel really good about doing something so domestic.
I had my friend Kate over - she took me in to her old work and I met her boss, so hopefully I'll be hearing from them soon enough. It was really nice to see her again. She's said that her grandma is going away for ten days, and that I'm welcome to have her room for the quiet while she's away which was LOVELY of her. I may take her up on that. I also went and got somethings I needed from the store - razors, a shower puff, and soap. I missed those small comforts too much to be able to cope without them.
I spoke to the college manager today, she said to lodge an online application to be moved to a quieter building in the semester break, which I will do, because otherwise I am going to have to come home every single weekend just to get decent sleep. I need my sleep so desperately at the moment. I spoke to Danny - the Resident Assistant as well about the noise - he said if the noise continues past 11pm, I can just call security, and they'll come over to force the guys to shut up. I think I'll do this next time I get woken up at like 12 am, because I'm getting sick of it. I know it's O-week and all but really, it's so hugely inconsiderate that I"ve lost all patience, especially since I KNOW that I'm a good housemate - to the best of my ability - I don't leave my shit lying around, I don't wake people up in the mornings, and I never have my music too loud. *grumps*
I also printed out all my study guides that were available, and printed them off. So yeah, I'm gonna get stuck into studying this weekend I think. I like being prepared for my classes. And I also feel a lot more comfortable doing that. And it means I don't get info-overload, so my notes at the end of the class are much better, which is good in the long term.
I also had a really nice pasta tea with Lana, and it was good to be a bit social. There was a lot of people there though, after about half an hour I started feeling a bit claustrophobic and like I wanted to get out. So now I'm back in my bedroom, with my own space and quiet. And it's a huge relief.
