Hurry Down the Elevator Tonight

Santa Baby,

I can't decide what I want for Christmas this year. Should I get the calendar with Italian priests, French rugby players, or dachshund puppies?

If you had to choose one, which one would it be?

Love,

Me

Good stuff! :-)

What made you decide London over Edinburgh?

Well UCL wanted to interview me last week so I actually came down to London just for the day...they were idiots, but I decided to drop by Westminster and check out the uni there too, and they were sooooooooooo lovely. The most welcoming and friendly people I have ever met, and they have a really good reputation, so I accepted the offer right then and there. :D

The course doesn't start until September, so I'll be moving down in March and working full time with Al Jazeera probably until then.

Very cool. I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks very much! :) I was actually going to ask you where the best areas are to live, since I have no clue...what's Waterloo like?

Anywhere in zone 1 (Waterloo included) is expensive. Your best bet is to look somewhere in Zone 2 or 3. Will you be well paid? If yes, you can definitely find something good to rent in those zones. If you will be relying on student grants and so forth, it's a different matter. But it really depends what kind of neighbourhood you are after. Do you want to be near nightlife, near a fast train to work/school, near parks, etc?

Edinburgh is freezing of course!
