Brain Dump :P

 Check out my Anak Perantauan Playlist if you haven't!!! That is such a cool blogger feature by the way hats off to you, Blogger. 

I'm actually not very sure what I want this blog to be about, and have refrained writing in here because I've realized whenever I wrote about how things felt like they were going good, I'd feel terrible the next day lol. So I think I'll keep those pieces of sentiment to myself. But then what am I to write if not about how bewildering all this feels sometimes?

Cardiff has been transitioning into winter with mist all around for the last two days, and with it has come the Christmas decorations!! Just a week or two ago Halloween ornaments lined the shop shelves and my friends and I were out in town excitedly looking for Halloween accessories for our little residence event. Now I find myself coming back with a chill and with assignment after assignment to chase, not to mention the lectures to catch up on. Did I mention first year undergrad psych students don't get reading week but nearly every other first year does? Insane! Have you seen the reading we've had to do? You'd think we were researchers instead of first years. 

Alongside the whirlwind of work and weather there's been the issue of housing my friends and I have had to settle. We just got here!!!!! (It's been a month). House hunting has been quite the trip. We're all a bit spoilt by our current halls of residence that is an unbeatable 3 minutes away from our lectures, literally just across the road. But quite honestly I've walked more than I've ever had in the month I've been here - so maybe a house 10-15 minutes away won't be so bad. 

Christmas lights and festivities get into full swing November 14th and I can't wait!! Halloween was such a vibe, and even then I thought it was being treated as the generic second sibling (if my brother is reading I DO NOT mean you bro), hence I can't imagine how Christmas will be like. Mariah Carey is already unfrosting amongst my friends who are constantly singing her infamous Christmas song. 

Toodles!
