my social life

it my seem rather sad, but a large part of my social life centres around the national library. it has turned into a social club for me. today i arrived at about 10:30. at 1, connar texted to see if i wanted a lunch break. so for 45 minutes we chatted in the cafe and ate. he is writing the great novelof the 21st century and was stressed about some details. then i headed back to work. at about 3, uillieam tapped my shoulder and we went out to the hall for a brief consultation: he has dinner with some old, important, retired professor, and needed advice on what to say and so on. then i headed back to work again. then at 5, just as i was packing up to head out, i run into kristen in the queue to return books. and, of course we headed for a drink, she is stressed about the film she has to shoot for her MA project, in particular as she is having trouble finding a crypt to film in within central london. i am stressed as i am trying to finish writing a monster project. so it seems we are all stressed, and living in the library. what a strange world.

but i like the library here. it doesnt look as nice from the outside as, for example, the françois mitterand in paris, but it is definately more comfortable and better organised inside. i wont even bother to compare it to the lenin library. i especially like the cafes. they are soooo conveniently located....as i know well, having spent a fair amount of time in them! they are also the only library run cafes i have ever seen that serve alcohol. i am not sure if that is a good thing or not....
