Let's go fishing for a dream,
Let's find some place new,
Somewhere we can be ourselves,
Some of the time ..

I read the other day that the above song is one of David Tennant's favourites. I enjoy it too, so in my eyes that makes me 'next doctor' material. Just saying.
I feel like absolute shite today. I'm somewhere in that purgatory-esque transitional period between normal health and full blown stay-in-bed illness, where you just have a headache and want to puke all the time and your temperatures all fucked up and goes between red hot and freezing in a matter of minutes. Luckily though, I have the support of my housemates, the nicest gesture of friendliness being "Max, stay the fuck away from me." So I'm holed up in my room with chocolate and a pile of essays.
I got an email from the British Council the other day (see my earlier post here) and it seems that in September I'm Rheinland-bound. For those of you not in the know, this is in South-West Germany and involves castles and rivers and forests and Germans, as far as I'm aware. Dishearteningly, I know no-one else going to Rheinland - all other friends managed somehow to stay in a big group in Nordrhein-Westphalia. Admittedly its right above the Rheinland-Palatinate where I am, but its gonna seem a million miles when I'm struggling on in a German state I apparently have all to myself. In another display of kindness, my housemates did their best to dispel my loneliness anxieties:

Me, worried - "Do you guys know anyone going to Rheinland?"
Dora, in all sincerity - "Yeah, you."
Ta for that.
I'm in the introduction to a 6000 word essay (230 words in) entitled "Critically evaluate the use of children’s drawings as a research tool." If anyone can help with this in any way, shape or form then facebook me and bestow your wisdom upon me. I've got a wicked intro on the go, and now I'm stuck for ideas.
