Back to School

Back to school today. There were only four of us: Brendan, Rushen, Drummond, and me. The others had various excuses for their absence, such as not being in the country. It was quite an enjoyable lesson, though, not least because we got to talk more and converse; it was not straight exercises, but there was still some of that.

After that, we had lunch in the canteen. It has been a long time since I have been and I had my usual curry rice. It was not completely up to scratch however, possibly because of the vast numbers of students around. I think it is worse than it was before the holiday, possibly because the new students have yet to figure out that the food is horrible. I hope that they will soon and stop coming, allowing us to get hotter and bigger portions, faster. I am not one for queuing for my food!

I had Linden Hall in the afternoon, which I went to, though it was thoroughly boring, but easy. We just took them all outside and let them play on their own for over an hour. Not much English, but I am past caring. There were only two first years, neither of whom talked particularly much, but I did try.

In the evening, I went for dinner with Rushen in Cambridge House’s canteen. It was not too bad: pork cutlet in sauce. The soup was interesting, though: it tasted like sweet corn, but there was none in it. Rather odd. I did some of my homework afterwards and translated the first page my new "Bleach" manga very slowly. I watched an episode of Ghost in the Shell 2 before bed.
