Wednesday 19th November 2008.

Today I went to Cambridge University. A real eye opener.
I've always known it was perhaps The best university in the country, however I've never really accepted that until today. Just walking around, you don't even need to go into it, to understand this. You can almost feel the knowledge drifting around you. The want - almost the need to plunge into it is present in every corner of the campus.
The people that walk around you seem almost real. Unthinkable isn't it? They even act real, and normal too. Surely people that clever don't actually live in the same way we do?!
I've never been to a place that holds so much beauty, knowledge and history in such a small place. There's not a alcove, corner or crevis that doesn't have a story to tell. Eight hundred years worth of lives have passed through the doors, leaving as a different person as to when you walked in. Only spending five and a half hours there, and I already feel different.
I know how hard I have to work now, I'm unbelievably determind.

Also.
Got the keys today. It's not quite Cambridge manner, but it's cosy and homely. I walked in and felt more at home than I ever did at Hawley. Going to really make it work.

Sometimes, against all expectations things do get better. Little by little.
