A very non productive day for the most part, and that is always one of my greatest annoyances and depressions. To start, I woke fairly early, and sat around, with no internet, as the people who live where the hub is, apparently are out and therefore can’t reset it, thus again granting us internet. Without internet, much of what I could do today was restricted, compared to what I wanted to do. After I awoke, I messed about in the flat for a long time, not doing much, but finally getting showered, dressed and all of it. I cleaned up the mess I had made and then left the apartment to set out go to the STA office for my vaccinations and visa information, but I forgot my passport, and they were not any help in anything anyway. The girl at the desk was telling me I could get all of my visas on entry, but the guy next to her told me not to wait, so obviously I was not going to get any real help there. I did not get my vaccinations either but I did get an appointment for tomorrow to do so. After that, I went to school and checked my email and had a chicken and bacon sandwich.

After leaving school, I went to a camera store nearby, and checked the prices of cameras, as I badly am in need of a new one, especially before I go to Africa. Leaving the camera store, I returned home, and there I was a bit depressed and quite unproductive, only leaving the house once to get some food from Tesco. I came back home and watched a lot of television on the history channel and that is more or less it. Seamus came home, and later on, Erika and Jessa came home and we discussed what we were doing, and how late we were staying in the flat and so forth. It was a bit of an awkward situation, because Seamus wants to move out on the 10th of December, but our finals end the 15th and the rest of us really can’t leave then, as we all do have finals. We came to a compromise that Seamus would pay for a third of the remaining time he isn’t here (for 5 days worth) and we would split the rest between us. After that, I tried to call Marc, but he wasn’t answering the phone, and later on, Jess went out to meet up with this Dutch guy she was really not that interested in, and dreaded going to. So, Erika and I in some short time later went to save her and went to the Elgin to do so. A noble effort, and when we got there they were playing pool. I guess the guy gave Erika the ‘freaky’ vibe. He also did something I thought funny, he tried to kiss Jessa, but did so on either side of the cheek in the ‘European’ way, which I thought was funny, and when we parted he did the same to Erika, but to me he only shook hands, which was completely to my liking, for I was about to tell him that we weren’t on the continent had he tried. Anyway, we went home, and I just listened to lot of different sorts of music on my computer and sat across from Erika and shortly after (in theory) went to bed.
