back to the 'burgh

so i came back to scotland on friday a week ago. not much has happened in my life since then. i have done a little bit of a revision for an exam in business, which i am sitting on friday, april 27th. to be honest, i don't care about the mark. i only want to pass it. the exam's structure isn't that bad. there will be 8 questions, each concerning a different module i took this year. i'll have to choose 4 questions and write short essays on the chosen modules unless they are quantitative (for example in finance or management science).

what else? i was working on three days this week. nothing special, apart from one thing. on thursday i was serving at a party in the scone palace in perth. the party was thrown by the earl of mansfield who was the palace's owner. his two daughters were present there. one of them was very pretty. gaaah, she was beautiful!!! she came down to kitchen a couple of times, as she was bored of the event and company of old, grumpy lordly people, so i had a chance to talk to her. her name was isabella murray, a year younger than me (she is doing classics at the university of edinburgh). huh! i couldn't stop myself from staring at her. that night she cast a spell on me. i was like a fool and feeling so small... yeah, i met a princess, a real one. it was almost like a dream. i guess i could have fallen in love with her if i had stayed there a few hours longer.

i heard a patrick nuo's song on the radio today:

"she's so
beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful
beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful
magical, mystical, irresistible, cosmical
a wonderful overkill and most of all beautiful
ooooh ooh ooh!"

these words reminded me of isabella. who knows? maybe one day i'll have a chance to see her again...
