Look, I Did Stuff

I realized I really didn't post much last month (to be fair, I was really stressed about finding a new flat) so I'm gonna try and post more this month. Though I still haven't decided if I'm going to take my computer with me while I travel over Christmas or not, so there may be a large chunk of time where I'm away from the blog. We shall see. 

Anyways, today part of my school decided to go on strike (to my everlasting annoyance), so I finally had time to do what I've been meaning to for a couple of weeks now - dye my hair! I also went to my one class that was still on, and then spent a couple of hours in the computer lab working on my book formatting, but thats not that interesting. 

So I am once again a redhead! 


And my bathroom looks like I murdered someone!


This is not a good photograph!

Credit where credit's due - my shower may have terrible pressure, but man, is it hot. It goes up to nine, and I can only stand it up to 6.5 (and I'm the kind of person who likes my shower so hot my skin turns red). 

Started reading An Abundance of Katherines by John Green. Fell asleep on the couch for a little bit - I was in a cozy little nest of warmth and it was icky outside, so I was pretty happy. Someone finally told me why all of the windows here are stupidly single glaze - its because the buildings are by and large historical, and there is a law that doesn't allow the owners to install double windows, because they want to preserve the historical looks of the windows. To which I say PAH. Give me warmth fools! But I've figured out how the thermostat works, you can set it on all the time, on once a day, or on twice a day (on a timer), so I've set the heat to start at 6:30 so the flats nice and cozy when I get out of bed :)

  3. The strike is just some of the staff - apparently there are like three different unions depending on department or something, I wasn't really paying attention - so we have some of our classes, but not all of them.
