Money/Moh-nooo!

And here was me thinking Canada would be cheap[ish]. And it is, but apparently only for boots. I have managed to spent over $300 just on required textbooks.

and sure they're pretty - but what isn't these days?

I'll tell you what.

The sight of there only being 2 squares left of my NORMAL SIZED REAL

Dairy Milk Chocolate bar - which I bought from the Best of Britain shop, it cost me $2.50. It may be the most delicious thing I've ever tasted. They sell Dairy Milk here but it's some kind of abominable imposter which doesn't deserve it's rich purple sheath. I have also spent stupid amounts of money on clothes etc but it is INCREDIBLY COLD [/will be] and the [utterly awesome] boots I got are VERY NECESSARY.

So I've had a lecture is every subject now, they're all really interesting, my English teacher's fantastic - much smaller class than the other 2 which are in a fat lecture theatre! Got so much reading to get done though... which is why I came back and slept after class today and am about to go to see Pennywise with my new Aussie frund Tyler. In his words, this is going to kick off: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me4GR2cze_U&feature=related

I also have bought some lavly posters and made my room more mine, including a spectacular one from the Alice in Wonderland illustrations with Feed Your Head in smoke above the Caterpillar sitting on a mushroom talking to Alice. The image is actually in this psychadelically fantesticle youtube video for the Jefferson Airplane song

Apparently the weather will be shunny. HOPE SO. expect pictures, shocking I know...

I gotta go get my punk on - but things [except the constant grey rainy weather] are goood here! All I need now is a sneaky Metropolis night and I'll be set. :D BIG LOVE EH.x
