Random thing I realised while at washing dishes....

Ok so while staring out of the top floor window off Caffe Nero today whilst attempting to wash up dishes, I was suddenly struck by how odd the effects of holidays from university really are. By this I mean one week away just felt like one week away, Uni still felt real and my uni mates still felt close (by close i mean 'physically' close), I was still imagining their responses to things i had done that day whilst cooking dinner etc. But after one week back and when life in Bath has returned so sweetly to the state it was in before i left for uni last october, (routines with friends and with work etc...) University, and Durham in general including all the amazing things that have happened whilst being there now seem like some super fantastic and i may add very realistic dream. I get this alot with life in general....not just with uni...For example... 1 month after returning from Thailand - the fact I had been there, to Thailand seemed like a rediculous concept! despite all photos and emails and letters i still, even now, find it hard to believe i actually did go there and that it wasnt all just a very good dream. Not saying i dont believe all u guys exist cos i know u do, but it doesnt seem "real" in the same way as the life i am now living does....Does this make any sense at all? Also does anyone else ever feel like this or is it just one of the many fantastical fantasies of Ffion?? I would appreciate feed back on this, i am quite perplexed? Any theories anyone?

Also thought u might like to know that i did actually do work today, though got told off for spending 10mins staring out the window whilst a particularly large queue waited for the freshly cleaned crockery that I was supposed to be doing! Honestly what's a girl to do??

Love y'all

Hey Ffi! How are things?! Durham feels so far away, I feel like I've been at home forever and third term seems really far away, I'm finding this a negative expereince lol! I can't wait to get back, not that I'm particularly looking forward to exams! Being at home spending my day not doing much makes it drag so much and not having any company is driving me insane as well! Parental relations are just as they ever were woohoo! I will actualy update my blog later, I actually have something which may be interesting to you rather than me doing krisskross puzzles all day! See you soon! Nic xxx

yep i am in total and utter agreement with you on that one. i have to think really really hard to remember that you guys actually exist. it's like i'm living two completely separate lives one kat is at home and the other is at durham. maybe we're all time travelling and we actually are always at home and always at uni but we occasionally switch between the two.....
