A quickie before the Italian Hawaiian gets here..

I now know where I’ll be staying in Brussels. Not too far from the last place I was at. And it’s still a walking distance from VF. My next step is to find the closest grocery store. Preferably a Carrefour since we’ve got the Happy Days card. Plus, I like Carrefour the most. It sorta reminds me of Target, but with a food section. Nicer than Wal-Mart. Not that there are any Targets or Wal-Marts in Belgium. If I remember correctly there’s Carrefour, Delhaize, GB Supermarkt (or something like that), Match…

The other news that I’m really happy about is they’ve sent my application to Aberystwyth and Huddersfield. Now I’ve just gotta wait for a response from them, then use UCASextra if neither of those work out.. I don’t know why, but the fact that both unis have my application now really makes me happy. ^__^

Have read “Lasher”. Won’t have the time to read “Taltos” before I leave (only 2-3 nights to go ;_;) so I’ve started on one of the three books I got for 80p. I was really delighted to actually get three books for less than a pound. It’s like, wow. The one I’m reading right now is called “Size Matters” by Judy Astley. It’s got some funny bits in it, but as a whole it’s not that good. Worth the 30p I paid for it though. But not the retail price of £6.99.

I really hope that we’ll get Internet access ASAP in Brussels. I’ll go nutty without it. Nothing to do during the day with Jaz at school. I guess I could go out grocery shopping (not that much fun by myself) or jogging (get bored with it after like 2 weeks). I will start exercizing more though. Like walk to school with Jaz every morning. Or back “home” in the afternoons. Hell, if I’m really bored I’ll do both.

The fire alarm went off again 3hrs ago. So we decided that we might as well spend the time waiting outside for the fire brigade to tell us it’s okay to go back in buying crisps/chips (choose which one makes more sense to you). Geez, I’ve started using English words. Like chips instead of fries. Crisps, not chips. Duvet, not comforter. Fire brigade, not firefighters/dudes from the fire department. O__O Anyway, the reason why I was talking about the fire alarm was that Oliver said something about going back into the room, only instead of saying “his room”, he said “our”. Well, I guess that’s what spending a month together (24/7!!) will do to ya.. While we were having lunch with Anji, Oliver pointed out that I’m slowly spreading my things around the world. I’ve got stuff in Belgium, Finland, Florida(doubt that there’s much left of it though) and now in Sheffield. Sorta letting people know that I’ll be coming back. XD

I like spring. It’s nice seeing the leaves slowly appear on the trees again. And the white/pink blossoms on other trees.. everything’s slowly waking up again. But it can’t beat summer. Summer is the best. Spring and autumn are tied in for second and winter is in last place. I really really dislike winter. If it’s got snow and below freezing temperatures that is. If it stays at like +3 or so, then it’s tolerable.

Meeting up with Piia tomorrow. Been ages since I last saw her. Anyhoo, we’re going shopping. Something us girlies like to do. Oliver is coming along and hopefully we’ll help him find a present for his mom..
