Had To Happen Eventually

Just before 7pm the fire alarms went off in halls. Luckily it was only for two minutes and the actual noise of the alarm in my room is different to that one the other flats on campus. Apparently the reason they haven't been going off as often as last year is because they've finally found sense into reducing the heat sensitivity within halls.

The flatmates are certainly nowhere near as disruptive as last years were and Hariet brought a friend in yesterday who happens to be a first year radio student! I told her that the first six or so weeks of this semester are a nightmare but things start to get better there onwards once you've completed the assignment in which you have to plan a television documentary that results in you spending more than the given budget!

Unfortunatley one thing that hasn't changed about living in halls are the illnesses that pop up now and again. I'm currently struggling with an irritating cold which is probably a result of this changeable wet weather! Maybe I will buy some Strepsils tomorrow to make a pleasant change from the licorice tasting Throaties I'm in posession of!
