Why You Only Sleep at Three in Halls
Only planned to spend an hour in the Bragg Cluster and ended up spending a few hours there. When I got back it was about midnight and I stayed up, ostensibly to do work, but really to wait for Megan to get back so that I could pass her "Jelly Belly" jelly beans I'd bought from Confetti in "The Light". They're absolutely mmmdelicious and they have all sorts of quirky flavours like toasted marshmallow, buttered popcorn and strawberry cheesecake. It amazes me how much a jellybean can manage to taste like something else!
Anyway I was going to pass her the jellybeans and then go downstairs to get my nightly fix of junk food (McCoys!) but I ended up going into her room, looking at pictures and staying there for two hours, munching on jellybeans and chatting until 2 in the morning. So I gave up the idea of Cheese and Onion McCoys and went into my room instead, writing in my diary with Christmas carols and my fairy lights on ( - I know I'm a strange person. You don't have to tell me that...) when Chris came back from his friend's place and popped in for what I thought was a quick chat, so I didn't ask him to sit or anything, but he stood there for an hour and we had a really nice chat about movies. We both prefer films to telly, and he was telling me about Cinema Paradiso (which I'd borrowed from the library a week ago!) and I learnt so much about films from him... felt bad that he had had to stand for an hour though, because I thought he'd leave any minute and wasn't sure whether I should ask him to sit down! I didn't expect to find someone with (almost) the same taste in films - we both didn't think Pirates of the Carribean was that good except for Johnny Depp (everyone else thought it was brilliant) and we both loved Adrian Brody and... (can't think of any other similarities so you see I have a tendency to exaggerate) I felt really glad after that little chat, though I left my diary entry unfinished and crawled out of bed in my PJs at 9 for breakfast this morning, sending Sunny into gales of laughter with my funny pokey fringe and rumpled clothing.
I love halls.
