Why would I have ever thought it would be a good idea to study in a city that basically has the same climate as Vermont, but generally with less snow? Snowed a lot yesterday but none of it really stuck to the ground here. Other parts of the UK got hit real hard and a lot of trains and airports are down because everything's frozen. Today it was just absolutely freezing with the wind, but I bought myself a lovely Euro winter hat! Our bathroom's been really really cold lately, which I thought was weird because it's tiny and our room's hot so it should be spreading...then I realized it must be because of the giant hole in the ceiling. I think I should have studied in Nice.
Today was the sample sale. People get CRAZY at sample sales and the only people allowed at ours are employees of the company so I thought they'd be calm. I stayed out of the room until it settled down because it was so overwhelming. We played a game called find the ugliest thing in here. It was pretty easy...there's A LOT of hideous things. We don't buy our stuff until tomorrow when the head of the office is back. I'm hoping that means we get a discount? I found another cute baby thing and I almost bought a trench coat but it was like $110 and I couldn't bring myself to do it...but it had a weird top anyways. I got goodies for lots of people! No one gets theirs until after secret santa though, because if I only make some people pay me back, it would give it away, sorry! :)
I decided to request a housing refund because my room sucks and they knew that coming into the semester and are fixing it AFTER we leave. So I figure it doesn't hurt to try.! And in case anyone forgot, my birthday is on Sunday, I'll be 21...no big deal.
