The Hunt is On!

Trust the perversity of my mind to want to blog the night before a final exam. Yepp, this week's "Finals Week" and I don't know if I'm happy that this nightmare semester is over on Friday, or whether I'm done with ALL of my course requirements... whether I actually remain course-free next semester is debatable, of course. Oooh, punny.... :)

So, I'm also observing the last few weeks of a life as I know it, i.e., the one I share with my flatmates at home. Two of the four of us are leaving for work, and we're looking for replacements. Today we had a girl come in to look at one of the rooms. She'd been filled in on the fact that one of her prospective roommates was Indian, and the other, Nigerian. She herself is "Indian Subcontinental". Anyway, my littlest roommate was out and it was just me and K at home to "welcome" her. So, she walks in, K introduces herself as the person moving out and introduces me as "one of your flatmates, if you move in here". Miss takes one look at me, says hello, and goes, "So, are you the Indian or the Nigerian?"

Clearly, I need to get a new mirror. Or a new pair of eyes, maybe.
