Two days until St. Patrick's Day. So being Irish, I thought I would clear somethings up now. It's not holiday celebrating green ale, which is always the cheapest and worst ale, just saying. If you're Irish, most people don't wear just green, you wear the tri colours of the Irish National flag, which I will be wearing come Saturday. It's an official feast day in Ireland and we're allowed to life our Lenton restrictions on alcohol and eating certain foods. It's a glorious holiday of eating, seriously the feasts are brilliant. And the All Ireland Football club plays a match which is very exciting. So there we are, why St. Patrick's Day is the best Irish holiday.

I have one class today, at one pm and I've been up since eight. It was literally the worst thing to happen to me on a Friday since ever. To kill the five hours before class, I tried studying, or getting ready to do this NEWTS stuff. Studying is boring. It's the most boring thing anyone could ever do. I was bored after five minutes and I feel this does not bode well for the next few months.

My parents have all ready start asking me about Easter and coming home. That's forever away and I don't like to think of anything farther than next week. It all depends on what mum makes, if it's turkey, I'm there, if it's lamb, I need to think about it. My life is based around food, I make no apologies for that. Easter is a big deal in my family as it's a huge holiday in Ireland, its actually one of the most important holidays. People go all out, you get your hair done for mass, new clothes, the whole shebang. Its just a lot of activity and I could use the time to properly study for NEWTS as it seems I'll need some help focusing. We'll just have to see.

There was some hippie holdover playing their stupid guitar in the common room. How irritating.

We have roughly 125 days until we're finished with school and are on the train home. Just thought everyone would be interested in knowing that. We can make one of those old fashioned calendars where we make the scratch marks and tick them off.

I can't tell if that's brilliant or depressing.

If I could marry an inanimate object, it would be coffee. Just one endless cup of coffee that keeps refilling it's self. My husband coffee would make me such a productive, energetic person.

The worst part about winter is how grey it is, it just makes it so hard to want to do anything. Its cold and wet and I miss the weak sunlight that is an UK spring. It can't come fast enough.

A second told me to go f**k off today in the common room when I told him to take his volume down from a ten to a seven. I can't tell if it's a bad thing or not that I laughed and felt a surge of pride. I didn't start using language like that until I was at least a third year. Kids are getting bold these days.

We came to an agreement in good health that if no-one would take care of us we'd be fine by ourselves )
