My Update (again!)

Yes friends, I am lazy.

I stay online all the time, yet I do not blog.

I should update, correct?

This I will do, in due course, of my various travails in more boring and less exotic parts of Europe, because, for once, I have to STAY in Belgium until at least the Christmas period due to the following 3, I think very valid reasons.

1. Precarious finances exacerbated by Excessive Spending. Exhibit 1 of Excessive Spending - Irish Bookmark of a sheep wearing a shamrock top hat and scarf, with books I lugged back from the Emerald Isle because good books in English are as easy to find in Belgium as err... ok it's hard ok?
2. A sudden realisation that I am doing far too many modules for my own good, but alas mandated by my University - hence I Need To Study for ALL 6 of my modules. Exhibit 2 of a Need To Study - An overcrowded bookshelf
3. Cold weather. I know, not as cold as 'ICE ON MY WINDSCREEN' St Louis or Sunny from 11am to 3pm Sweden but I cycle to school on my Red Riding Bike and the wind chill kills me, seriously. I can't imagine being on 'holiday' and stomping around in cold grey weather with a backpack. I'd rather plot in Belgium on how to make Penang Laksa from salmon and beehoon and ponderabout the what to do with my 8 boxes of now terribly useless belacan "Belacan with chicory? Belacan with aparagus?Belecan marinated with beef?"Anyway, Exhibit 3 - Room view, now a riot of red and a depressing, typical-Belgian-weather grey.

Updates to follow.
