Actual goodbyes

It's official. Exam season is well under way, and to add to the stress, the goodbyes have started. The photograph below was taken last Thursday, at my last ever Thursday coffee with Shyralee and all of my American friends. That was the last time I saw Amanda, on the far left, as she went back to America on Monday. The bright side is that I have been invited to visit her in Tenessee, but the likelihood of that actually happening any time soon makes it all rather sad again. Tomorrow night actually be the last Thursday for the rest of us as well, because Ian, Shy and I have our last seminar together in the morning. After that, everybody will probably be too busy with exams and such to get coffee at 11am on a Thursday morning with little old me. Thankfully, I'll still have Shy for another couple of years, with the added bonus of us both being on the dance society committee next year (AHHHH EXCITEMENT!), but I will soon have to say goodbye to two lovely people that I'm just not ready to part from.
I've officially handed in my short story Hunting Season and the commentary that goes with it, so I'll upload it here for you to read soon. I now just have a 2000 word essay due Monday, a seen exam on Monday, and my final exam (Applied Psychology) on the 30th. I don't feel particularly prepared, certainly nowhere near as prepared as I was for the last lot of exams, but I'm also not panicking. At all. Despite the fact that it is already Wednesday... I just really have no motivation after having to come back to Keele after a month off at home. Even though I'd be revising I would much, much rather be back home with my mama.
Anywho, I'm off to Skype George and get on with some work, so I shall write again soon!
