Busy October.

So October has turned out to be extremely busy and sort of restless for me. It started with a short trip to Bristol, two Birthday parties and continued with a 4-day trip to Durham. The North was extremely cold and windy, which made Exeter seem so welcoming when my boyfriend and I got back.

Being back to Exeter, I guess I'm supposed to jump into the sea of knowledge, surfing on numerous textbooks and embracing the waves of lecture slides and articles. Supposed to. Instead, I occupy myself with series, such as "Avatar. The Last Airbender." and  "How I Met Your Mother". Iskandar is being a great partner in crime by the way :) As soon as I realised how irresponsible I've been this past month, I must admit, I got a bit worried and stressed out. But then, I just looked at this from a different point of view. I don't have to submit anything before December and my academic skills have always been great, luckily. In other words, I'm a fast learner. So I've got a whole month before the deadlines once my boyfriend goes back to Malaysia. Oh, about that. Iskandar and I have only two and a half weeks left to spend next to each-other, after which he has to start his work. Which is why we are trying to make the most of every minute we are physically together. Out of nearly fourteen months we've been in a relationship, ten were spent in long distance. It may seem a lot to someone, but we were always thankful for every opportunity to see each-other, even if it was just a week. So no wonder I can't really concentrate on my modules at the moment. What I'm really looking forward to is the second half of this month! Tickets are all booked, schedule updated. All I can say is adventures are waiting for us out there! Meanwhile, we are enjoying our last week in Exeter and I am trying to sort my academics out :)

Thank you for reading,
Love,
A.

P.S: Here are some random photos from the past week. Enjoy:)

Sunny day in Exeter. One might recognise the stairs next to the Forum.
