Alba gu brath!

Not that I did anything to celebrate St. Andrew's day besides having it written on my door, thanks to Katie. I should have told Andrejean to whip out his whisky. In fact my entire week so far has been spent in a studious mush trying to get as much work done as possible before our weekend away. I haven't got quite as much done as I would have wanted but it's fair to say I have progressed hugely.
Aside from studying and going to lectures (though I will add that we are yet to return to our grammar class), there's only one or 2 things that have gone on. It's been an exciting week...
Julian and I settled our differences after Thursday. I may or may not have mentioned that already. Anyway, we hugged and made up, which is always nice :) Gaston asked if I wanted to join them watching a film so I squished myself into his room with Florian, Julian, Alison, Gaston and Patick (Alison's rather large stuffed toy dog). We watched 99 Francs which is so French it's unbelievable and being based on a book by Frederick Beigbeder it was always going to be weird. I was absolutely freezing towards the end and was trying to snuggle up unnoticed between Florian and the dog. It was much easier with the dog. I do wonder what Florian would have done had I openly tried to snuggle up. (I'm sniggering to myself a little right now).
The girls and I were all fairly giggly last night. I put this down to a mixture of generally being in high spirits and the fact that the 4 of us guzzled a whole sugar pie. Sugar rush much? After that, with it being Thirsty Thursday all the troops appeared. Habillé span me round numerous times in the corridor as I was trying to get to Nicole's room. He also attempted to sing along to Michael Buble singing some christmassy song without knowing any of the lyrics. They then all admired my Christmas decorations. Before long they were getting the munchies so the kitchen was invaded. I took myself off to bed as Hervés rant about colonisation and alliances between random countries (he wasn't entirely making sense - he was talking a fair bit about rainbows) was coming to an end.
I really wish I knew how to work my radiator. Either my rooms is boiling or I open a window and promptly freeze. However, in comparison to the UK we are enjoying the rather balmy temperatures of around 1 degrees. Get in.
