friday.

Clare and I basically got to know one another on the plane to Rome when we moved out there. At the time going to Rome was the last thing I wanted to do, and she'd just witnessed my embarrassing, teary goodbye at Gatwick. We were pretty much friends from then on in.

So last night, I went to hers and we drank some vodka and proofread some essays, because that is what university is like sometimes. And something I've learned is that when I've had a slightly odd day and am feeling a bit overwhelmed, there is always Clare and there is always vodka.
