Mondays are my busiest days. 6 hours of non stop lecturing which is just brutal. However, I have Sunday and Tuesday off which makes the day bearable. What is tough is when I return on Wednesday and know I don't have any time off until Sunday... making Wednesday effectively my Monday morning.
Got to Talk to Ryan last night which was great and Ashley as well, first real contact with my friends since I've been back so it was really nice. Its amazing to think how long I can go without talking to some of my best friends...
I was walking down the street yesterday and a group of kids stopped, pointed at me, and just stared for a good 2-3 minutes. After living in Switzerland for a few months I began to blend in relatively easily and felt comfortable. I realised yesterday that that will never happen here. I will always be a total outsider. I might as well be from a different planet the way some people look at me here. You can get used to the weather, to the food, to the general atmosphere of a place but I doubt you can ever get used to being seen as a totally alien creature so unlike those surrounding you.
