It's the loneliest people that are the kindest, and the saddest people that have the biggest smiles.

I must be strong mentally to face the challenges ahead. Not allowed to break down here. No way.

wishlist: Orient Symphony with black dial. Why are you so hard to find tsk

week 6 blues. culture. why. you. so. amorphous. and. hard. to. comprehend. argh.

Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul
That love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone.
Or keep a straight face.

And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance.
And up until now I have sworn to myself
That I'm content with loneliness.

Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Well you are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

so that's how it feels when you aren't reciprocated. Guess it's time to start basing my decisions on logic again instead of my irrational fickle feelings.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I'll remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"

It has been nearly 24 days since I've been in the UK, and around 10 since I'm living alone. Life isn't as great as I imagined it to be, but not as bad as my worst nightmares were either.

It seems like the government is paying an exorbitant amount for me to study on my own though haha. I guess I will only really learn when the professor tells me how bad my essay is in my supervision next week.

I also need to learn how to cook. Can't keep surviving on instant noodles :/

Workload isn't that bad, but getting heavier each day. I thought university is when I can finally slack. sighhhh chose the wrong uni for that. Cambridge why must overwork your students...
