The bank can't do money orders in pounds on Saturdays cuz the dumb big bank isn't open for them to call and find out the exchange rate. How retarded is that. VERY. Now I have to wait to send in my bus money AGAIN. The dumbness of it all. But hey, I was reading all my info. again and Capernwray has a store called the 'Beehive'. It's fabulous cuz it sells 'sweets' and 'washing powder' (I haven't quite figured out what that is exactly). And get this, we need to allow about £2 per load of laundry. That's like 5 bucks a load! Harumph. Oh well, I'm going to have lots of money...yes. And then we hve to have tetanus shots cuz we might have to work on the farm. This is exciting, I hope they make me work on the farm. I could like, milk the cows or something. Even though I don't know how to do that. Or maybe I'll get to shear the sheep. If that's what they have the sheep for which I don't think they would, but what other point is there to having sheep? Just to tell people like me that they have sheep and make me excited about the free roaming sheep and cows on the 'footie pitch'? Hmmm, maybe. But other good news is that the weekend trips to the Lake District and such are only about 20 bucks a go, so maybe I can afford it. And go traipsing around in the beauty that is. And go see Hadrian's Wall and go to Edinburgh and BenNeviss and Glen Coe and all those other Glens and Lochs and castles and green-ness andbeauteouss places. And hey guys, I found out the phones lines AREN'T just for emergencies, there are 2 student lines which can only be used between certain [England] times, and the calls are limited to 10 minutes, but you guys should socalll me. For 10 minutes a call it'd be about...90 cents. That's less than a dollar folks! Of course, you'll only be able to call if you can get over the confusion that is the phone number. I think it's about 10 numbers plus the country code and other crap that they [your telephone service peeps] make you dial. And there's a free minibus service 3 times a week into Carnforth and friends/family can stay at Capernwray if they come to visit during the spring term (if they arrange ahead of time), but not during the winter term for some reason. AND everyone has to get up at 7am, get ready, have breakfast, do chores and then go to lectures. (We get lectures on Saturday too!) OK, to most of you this probably sounds super boring, but obviously I'm a bit on the insane side cuz I'm excited about it ALL! Including the writing of deep and philosophical papers. And I'm going to make a point of doing all the homework that I can OUTSIDE on the beautiful grass. Or in the tower, now THAT would be cool. Or by the lake, or on the tree swing. Or in the tree itself. The excitement I have is unfathomable. UNFATHOMABLE. And I still have 153 days. Whatever shall I do? Anyway, g'bye folkerinos, hope I didn't bore you too much. I have had complaints about talking excessively about Capernwray before but sometimes I just have to express the ness. So there. Have an awesome day! :D
