It's 6.20 in the evening right now and the sky is already pitch black, not a star in sight. I'm back again in Manchester alone and cold and I'm missing my mom already. Wish I was back home for a bit to be honest. Manchester is actually pretty depressing this time of the year...

Congratulations to that idiot Chinese man who thought that pulling the emergency stop lever causing my train from Manchester to London to grind to a halt in the middle of no where was real funny. Bet he did not find it all that amusing when he got arrested by the police when the train pulled into London.

Hah.

Alright this is the first time I'm trying mobile blogging so lets see how this works out. Currently waiting at the manchester picadilly train station with my mom. No wait, more correctly put, I'm waiting at the train station with all the bags while mother dearest is looking around bodyshop. The last time we all came to Manchester, everybody told us we brought the sun with us. Now it seems she brought the rain with her. Not to mention the hale. Ah well will blog again soon. London, here I come (again).

I know Manchester rains a lot but barely snows, but what I was really not expecting was hail. Oh well, not exactly snow like I was craving, but will do.

Some loves are like that. Most loves are like that, from what I can see. Your heart starts to feel like an overcrowded lifeboat. You throw your pride out to keep it afloat, and your self-respect and your independence. After awhile you start throwing people out- your friends, everyone you used to know . And it's still not enough. The lifeboat is still sinking, and you know it's going to take you down with it.

Is a cold.







So that pretty much sums up my first week here. The parents both left on Wednesday morning and got home safely. It was really after my parents left and I was walking down the long corridor towards the train station at the airport did I realise that I was truly alone. What I had anticipated for years has finally come.



I am truly sad to leave behind all that I have known for the past 22 years of my life. All the things I've grown up with. All that is familiar and safe, they have all been left behind. And here I am and for once in my life, I am truly alone. I lack the comfort of my own bed, the soft touch of my girlfriend and the warm familiar smell of my mother's cooking. Don't get me wrong, I am happy to be here. It's what I've looked forward to for so many years. But as much as I am happy to begin the next, and as they say the most exciting stage of my life, I also am sad to leave it all behind.



On a lighter note, my room does have a strange funk of a smell to it. Maybe the previous occupant died or something, I don't know. But the said previous occupant did leave behind a bunch of hangers in the cabinet so am grateful for that. My window faces the high street so for the most part it is really noisy outside. And having a hospital directly opposite you does not help either. Not a day has gone by so far where I have not heard an ambulance (one just went past as I typed this sentence). Most, if not all of my flatmates are British and I am the only international so I guess it's going to be a very interesting mix. Cooking so far has been fun to say the least. It is a little annoying to be needing so many little ingredients here and there but I guess that's what's required in every kitchen. I already tried out Cajun style chicken and that turned out really well, thou a little on the salty side (was not expecting the Cajun spice to have salt in it) and today I moved on to some chinese stir fry plum sauce chicken.



I'll leave it at this for now, but rest assured I'll be typing much more now.
Wherever I'll go, there I'll be.

Ok so it's fasting month for Muslims right. And Muslims around the world fast from sunrise to sunset. What about those poor Muslims in the north who have like 18-20 hours of daylight a day. Do they fast for that long?



Poor chaps up there...

Is a post!
Ok so I have not posted properly in awhile. Sue me. It's not like I've been sitting on my ass doing nothing the past couple of months right? Well actually I have been sitting on my ass doing nothing the past couple of months but that's not the point now is it?!



The fact is I've had a hell of a writer's block the last few months. But I have a feeling that is coming to an end with what's been up lately. So bare with me and I promise you this blog will once again be like it once was, maybe even better.



Toodles.
Today's post is brought to you by the letter J.
