i'm in the lab now, at 9.30pm. this place really is like my second home. my home away from home. what'll i do when i have to leave? go to the far away places warm from atleast 12 hours of sunshine. having said that though, at the moment it's staying light until almost 8pm now in london, and i really like that. i've been to hawaii, stayed there for 2 weeks. being nearer the equator, it is always dark at about 7pm, all year round. what i'd really like is a place which is warm, and light from 7am til 9pm. you don't often hear good things said about english weather, and for years and years i hated it, being the land of perpetual darkness and grey skies. but in the summertime, sometimes its daylight until 9pm, and i love it. in those places far up north, places like iceland, during the summer i hear its sometimes daylight for 24 hours. amazing. no wonder they're all so friendly up there.
