Feb. 11th, 2008 10:08 pmBack at lectures. I was half asleep most of the day, then the fire alarm happened and we realised just how few of us actually know where any emergency exits are. Had it been a real fire most of us would have perished. Top floor, most stopped to grab bags/cigarettes/coats/whatever. Someone had been using some sort of grinder thing to, well, grind something and had a rather sheepish look as 300 nurses, midwives, docs and physios filed past out into the beautiful day. Lecturer tried to round us up like sheep to do a head count, hoping that none had wandered off for a quick coffee. We all survived the terrible day of the great grinding!
Decided at that point that the day was too beautiful to spend indoors and with the two hour lunch hour some of us wandered off to IMMA, forgetting the habit of Irish museum things have of closing of a Monday. Still, spent a lovely time sitting in the gardens discussing the relative swoonmakingness of various people we've met over the last few months. It had been three months since I'd seen some of them, almost as long as summer holidays really. So much catching up was had. And occasional making of oooh noises over new hair. Not mine, that'd require thought and planning and as I haven't been able to plan time off to henna it since last summer...
Our sociology lecturer made us cake because we're lovely. It was good cake. Must ask for the recipe.
