sebastiennewell, durham is a beautiful town.
especially at midnight when you're walking up a precarious path with a huge fall to your right and a spookily uplit cathedral to your left.
i saw some strange contrasts as well - the boy at bap's house who smoked a joint and then went straight out to get some asthma medication before boots closed; the girl on the train who drank two cartons of ribena, and got out a third before complaining that she had to go to the dentist and get loads of fillings.
my college scared me when i first arrived - all these girls with straight breast-length hair and bootcut jeans, i wondered if i'd missed the exhortation to come in uniform. but i met some people who weren't like that, and by breakfast the next day i was looking around and seeing individual faces rather than a mass of townietiude.
i was also impressed with how i managed to go to the english open day to pass the time with prisstina, and didn't get all self-doubty and begin to wonder if i should have gone for something like that. wherever i go, there will be drama, there will be a piano to piss about on, there will be fantastic individuals like i've never met before(i was only there a day, and i met a girl who was into RL roleplaying - can you say cool?). god knows, those things matter to me more than my degree subject.
