No matter where you’re from you can always compare life to Friends
Friends the TV show. This morning I got a package. I wasn’t expecting one, so I had no idea what it was. Turns out it was the key to Kristie’s bike that she said I could use. We kept missing each other over the summer, so she said she’d just mail it to me. So now I have to figure out which bike is hers, and then I have no excuse for not riding a bike to get places around Oxford. Just have to make myself get on it. I even brought a helmet over, so I don’t have that excuse either. I was talking to Ula after I got it, and I said all this stuff. And she said I’d be fine. Just to think of the episode in Friends when Phoebe tries to learn to ride a bike, and you’ll feel better about yourself. So now that she said that, of course, I came up to my room and searched for that episode online. I’ll let you know if there’s any progress on me riding a bike. After lunch, I plan on going to the back quad and seeing if I can remember which bike is hers.
As for other things in life. I performed terribly in my tutorial yesterday, but I knew I would, and I told Lee I was having trouble with this topic. So I just looked at it as a learning experience, and the tutorial did help me sort out the topic much better. Lee said it was a complicated topic, and he thought the structure I chose for my essay was what hindered me. So we talked about how I could have structured it differently. Yesterday I also worked on my thesis. I turned in two more chapters to Mark. So now I just have to write the last chapter, which probably won’t be too long and rewrite my introduction, which shouldn’t take long now that I have the rest of the thesis written. I’m not sure if we’re meeting this week or not. But even so, I feel like I don’t have that much to do. I usually don’t start my essay reading until Wednesday, but I might go ahead and start it today, but there isn’t that much to read. So when I feel like I have time, of course, I waste it instead of using it wisely. And that’s why I’m going to go watch this episode of Friends and maybe try to ride my bike this afternoon. So maybe it was a good time for me to get this bike key.
