I'm leaving in about an hour to go to Leicester with my girlfriend.
The faculty open day at the university is tomorrow, and it has to be said, I am very nervous.
I cannot talk to people I don't know, I hate having to go into places I don't know, and having to ask people for help. This is not a pride thing, it's because I am so nervous and assume everyone is judging me and hates me.

Once the open day is over, I will relax, and the shopping/drinking/being a menace to Leicester will begin!

Living in N.I.

For years, I've done a lot of complaining about living in Northern Ireland, and how crap it is, nothing to do, weather sucks, etc.

But lately, I've started to love it here (just when I'm planning to leave, typical!).

People living in NI, some advice I have to offer after the weekend...

1. Visit Belfast Zoo
2. Do not visit Exploris

Fill up your tank with fuel, get a good mix CD on (or a girlfriend to operate the iTrip), drive, eat, laugh, stop at intervals, take photos.

Enjoy living here, because it really has a lot to offer. I have been to pretty much all of the 'famous sights' with my family, but hated it because I was a grumpy teenager who wanted to spend the school holidays with her friends. Going to these places because I actually want to, with someone I love is a completely different experience.

Next stop - Giant's Causeway.
