Norfolk Terrace, UEA, Norwich, Day 114. Into
Study Mode
As
my way of starting off the study week, I joined Charlie and we set off for the
library. Once we were there, it only took about twenty minutes for Charlie to
realize something: we were sitting next to a guy that I’d like to call ‘The
Breathing Man’. He breathed nasally at every intake of air, as he sipped up the
words of some research book on Milton. Well that’s my notion—Charlie believes he
really was on his phone the whole time.
By
lunch I headed back and got a nice bit of studying done on William Blake’s
representation of childhood in Songs of Innocence and of Experience. The day
was warm and sunny outside, but I stayed inside, out of habit mostly. I took
the night off from studying and uploaded all the Europe trip photos from
Amsterdam all the way to Lisbon, Portugal.
349 pictures, and it took forever actually, with the tagging and
individually locating half an album if it covered two different cities.
In
the evening I called up Katya (skype-mobile connection) and also had
interesting talks in the kitchen with Jen as she described that hippos sink
because their legs consist largely of just bone. Dinner was good and I actually
cooked at 6. Ha, Gemma! And apparently Alvin and Charlie were also aware of
this odd change from my usual 9 o’clock dinner. The night drifted on and Vinnie
was asleep before me.
