A raucous conversation, a mural and a quiz

1. Exam stress gets to me and I can't work any longer. Suddenly, loudly talking with a friend on Skype brings me back to myself, and the laughter just tumbles out.

2. In a moment of procrastination I bring out the photos I ordered while at home and stick them all up strategically on the mostly-bare white wall of my bedroom. When I'm finished, I can be in Madrid with all the grinning faces of family and friends from both here and home.

3. The pub quiz. It rings of home but is so completely different; as I push my way through the crowded bar I am greeted by familiar, happy faces that make me beam back in return.
