Back in England and the weather is horrible (as expected). There's union jack bunting freaking EVERYWHERE since the cycle race came through here. And YET ANOTHER survey arrived from the hospital.
Otomas is leaving for university soon. I'm glad that he's going to be out of here because he is not at all easy to live with, but I'm so sad that I still can't go. I'm almost 22, I wanted to go as soon as I hit 18! Learning is my jam! I really love classes and whiteboards and numbers and how dizzyingly wonderful the universe is and the feeling of finally understanding something and spending all morning on a problem and working together with science buddies and I am just so, so jealous. The funny (ha ha) bit is that he doesn't even want to go!
On the plus side though, I've seen a lot of resources for online courses on tumblr. So maaaaaaybe I can do some learning, even if I have to take it very slowly. I can't just give up. Lots of people did their best work in their thirties or fourties, I've still got time.
