I've been off to Belgium for the last few days, which was lovely but exhausting as hell — so was the mad run for my train two minutes before departure, really — and somehow I've managed to bring back nothing but Belgian marzipan, which doesn't seem much different from French marzipan, and Mark Gatiss' The Vesuvius Club, which looks incredibly cliché but enormous fun, and also very very gay.

It's been a bit of a last haven for me, this half vacation, since uni starts up again this week — I have to meet with my (hopefully) potential study director over my master thesis tomorrow morning; the Granada!SH study, that. I have absolutely no idea how it'll go down, as Doyle's not much for Classics. Then again, Sherlockian theses are all over the place.

So now I'm going to huddle in my bed and watch The Girl Who Waited, which I've missed, and catch up on the Sherlock ficmeme and nibble marzipan, and try to keep these precious few hours I've got left before uni strikes down again. Social awkwardness, what is that.

Hmm, mixed feelings, I suppose! Going back to the Philippines for the first time in, like, 14 years was interesting. Although I got so sick, food-wise. I'd forgotten that they actually have rice for breakfast. With meat. Yeah. My stomach couldn't handle it @_@ And then the typhoon came and it rained, I swear, for a week straight. I thought I was in London, haha. Singapore was lots better :D We watched The Lion King musical and I adored it. And shopping! Lots of shopping.

Admin hell D: I hope it works out! my uni sent me an email about a month ago about some liberal arts class they're offering over the winter and apparently they're going to france. strasbourg, i think, and i want to go but i can't afford it :\ plane ticket + hotel fees + actual tuition... i wish i had money.

WASN'T IT JUST. I LOVED IT SO MUCH, I DON'T EVEN HAVE WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I LOVED IT.

Typhoons and rain doesn't seem much fun. D: But the Lion King musical looks magical (and no, I absolutely do not own the original music, what makes you think that.)

awww, man ): strasbourg isn't a very pretty town, though, tell yourself that. and save your money for when they propose to take you to paris :D
