Went to sign up for rooms an hour ago. We went so early (a) because we wanted to avoid the massive queue and (b) because The Dragon has this rule of only four signups per flat and we wanted to get in before the two Cypriots who don't speak to us. Not really fair, I know, but it was us who fought for a five person flat last year without any input from them and we figured it was their turn. So, rolled out of bed at 8:45, only to have A knocking on my door to tell me said aloof Cypriots had already gone down to queue. So ensues half an hour of silent panic when we ended up waiting just behind them in the queue, thinking we were going to have to watch the two of them sign up for our flat and leave me, A and K with either a big fight to get in or the option of moving somewhere else. Only for me and A to walk into the office as they were signing... to hear them say the name of a completely different block of flats. They don't even want to *be* in our flat next year.

That half an hour of panic was Fate making a snide point that we shouldn't try to go behind people's backs, I swear. But anyway, apart from me -- spectaculary foolishly -- writing the wrong student number on my form, which I'm not even dreaming of going to fix today because Dragon is liable to bite my head off, it's sorted. Back in my room for another year, with K next door to me and A down the hall. Which leaves an empty space for L if she wanted to sign up.

It's too early for all this. Ngh. If this post made any sense then I'll be surprised.
