Homeeeee

So.

I'm home! It's wonderful to be back. I had a party today (my mum went so overboard with the food and the stress) but it was good to catch up with people I hadn't see in awhile. Not that it felt like I hadn't seen them, it all just felt as natural as ever, except without Jen and my Exeter crew, it did feel like something was missing.

I finally got back into a normal sleep pattern. Every day I've been waking up at 5am and not being able to get myself back to sleep, leading to me sleeping at ridiculous times and being useless. But today, I managed to go back to sleep and actually overslept, not waking up until almost midday. Oops.

But at least it gave my body time to heal. I've been sick ever since the plane, but I think I'm finally on the mend which means everything is coming up Milhouse.

I got my job back yesterday, Mum bought me a new dress and two pairs of shoes and four pairs of tights and two shirts and Dad got me flowers and so did my Auntie Rosemary and I love flowers, especially bright yellow ones and yesterday my Auntie Maureen took my cousin and I out for haircuts (her shout) so now my hair has a new style that I'm quite pleased with. My long term goal is still to grow it right out but it's still short for now sadly.

Mia and my cousin Lizzy were making plans to have coffee. Together. Alone. Which was weird, but now we've made plans instead to go to San Churros on Wednesday evening, with Megan and Jess as well, so I'll get to see them again. I am determined not to let Megan be a loner this semester. I missed seeing her loads so I'll make sure she is hanging out with me/us a lot. Jess too. We are always fine to go three months without seeing each other, though we don't often go that long, but there's no reason for it really. I'll see her Tuesday and Wednesday this week and I had dinner with Megan on Thursday so maybe we'll organise to do dinner or something next weekend/ Monday. Jess and I made tentative plans to go to the Uni movies Wednesday after next as well which will be awesome but I've just realised I have a tute until 7:30 on Wedesday's. Bummer! Hopefully it'll finish early so I won't have to miss the start anytime I go. That was the only tute I didn't get the exact time I wanted, but who knows, maybe a spot will open up in the tute the hour earlier? Unlikely only because that tute is straight after the lecture and therefore popular.

I'm seeing Sarah and Corey on Tuesday (can't wait to see that baby!) and then from Wednesday I should have shifts back at work. Hopefully Tues/Wed/Thurs (or weekends) but I won't know until Tuesday when the new roster comes out. I'm looking forward to starting again and seeing my work friends but nervous too, about memorising the price changes and anything new on the menu or any new girls or anything like that. It should all be fine and of course, I need the money and I like the structure work gives my life but still, eeeeeeeep!

Overall, coming home has been a welcome change of pace. I'm looking forward to Uni tomorrow and getting started on a brand new semester, because I'm sure I'll be as busy as ever.
