mind the gap

05 August 2005

I've finished my dissertation. I just have to do another read-thru and print it off. I'm not completely relieved until it's bound and turned in. Even then, I'll worry until I have my diploma in my hands.

I'm so up and down today. I'm not homesick or feeling so overwhelmed anymore, just not 100% normal. I'm sort of lonely I guess, even though I have friends I could call. I get rather introverted when I'm like this.

Going to dinner with Ems tomorrow night. I'm looking forward to a night out with someone who's not here on holiday! Don't get me wrong, I love having people here visiting but the last week has been stressful. Good grief.. I'm starting to sound like someone from Frank's past. She's as nutty as an acorn. My life isn't that pathetic, even though I feel emotionally spent.

I've packed up a bit more of my flat today, getting ready to move on the 17th. I've hired movers so I don't have to worry about roping friends into helping me. I do have to go out to Essex to see my new place and figure out what kind of room I'll have, if I have the right linens for the bed, simple stuff like that. I want to have my stuff here from California and my dog. I miss having his big ears to scratch and getting a cuddle.
