Today I had my last ever lecture in Downing Site. After three years, and a fair few hundred lectures in there it's all done! Can't believe it's the end of my EIGHTH term in Cambridge - it really has flown by. I'm stupidly relieved that I'm not leaving after this year though!

Lots of work done Saturday... many notes made, more lectures understood - all good.

Emma bar that evening. Had scary 9 foot sofa. No-one danced. Was a bit lame. Saw Rich though. Came back to Reece's. Had gardies with Bethmo. Saw the Royal Tenembaums. Was bon. Went to bed at 3am. Sleeeeepy. So slept till 1pm. Lots of work done again. Adventure up Histon Road and scary back streets. DINNNNER

Want house? Get house.

We have a house! We spent this afternoon wandering around the Chesterton region sneaking around cute little terraces trying to find somewhere to live. We saw 3 houses in total, and paid a deposit on the first one we saw. It was really lovely - a great sitting room, big kitchen, side covered outside bit, off-street parking, and 6 bedrooms, 3 of which are en-suite. The rooms are small (presumably the house is made to only have 2 bedrooms!), but it'll do the job, and with the lounge we won't need much space in our rooms. The 2nd house was nice (bigger bedrooms) but the lounge was in the basement - felt like walking into a dungeon. The third house was newly revamped, but unfortunately was ALL corridors - the kitchen was a tight galley, and there was no living room (just a breakfast bar). All in all, a good choice was made. Now all we have to do is set about planning how to "make our mark". Get out the spray paints and skull-and-cross-bone stensils!
