Issy moved into the house yesterday evening. I think she likes it but, I think, like me, she'd basically like anything that isn't a dingy guest house in Paharganj. She has left for Jaipur today with some Belgian that she met by chance yesterday. I'm jealous because I'd love to be travelling the length and breadth of the country, and at the moment I feel a little over worked and under paid. I am going to be asking Alka for some time off soon as I haven't had any since Annu left. I think she'll understand as she recognises the beauty and variety of her country and that, as an outsider, I want to see as much of it as possible. I have the offer from Sabya (my Agra host) to visit Bengal, along with an invitation from Dr Singh to visit Dharamshala AND now an invitation from my landlords to visit Punjab with them, and I want to get at least two of these done.
I am working hard today, after not sending an email to the Courtauld admissions man. I don't think he wants me to beg, and, even if he does, I don't want to. If I don't get in on merit then it's not worth getting in and is the wrong course for me. I reckon the only reason I'm the 'wildcard' is because I'm the only person without a 1st!
