>tfw a profoundly cold morning here at the University of Oxford with air cold and crisp upon inhalation
>tfw woke several times during the night and experienced several distinct dreams, one of which included my former hopefully-soon-to-be Elite, privately educated (~£36,000 a year fees plus relatively minor additional costs) girlfriend though she didn't play a starring role
>tfw woke up this morning with just the right intensity of dawn light infiltrating the thick curtains of my room
>tfw sat up and swung my legs around to sit on the edge of my bed and saw my reflection in the mirror which looked most Harry Potter-like as though I had awoken in Gryffindor tower itself with my hair aesthetically disheveled and my stomach not paunching the way it often does and instead betraying several ribs suggestive of a fine physique
>tfw was certain that were I girl and had awaked behind me at that moment I would have first felt the masochistic excitement of finding myself nude and vulnerable behind my love (me) but then glanced upon him sitting there and wrapped my arms around his neck while ruffling his (my) hair
>tfw just got to the university proper and am currently sat with leg bent and shin resting upon opposing knee while many a student walk past giggling, making noise and discussing obscure but intellectually profound subjects
>tfw mother sent me some uplifting but grammatically appalling text message wishing me a good day and I became instantly depressed at the thought of my hometown and the hundreds of thousands of humble (poor) people trudging to perform manual labour or to rot away in some obscure, unpleasant office unit

Well as one day ends so another begins here at the University of Oxford. I have a meeting just now with a very influential and renowned professor who has published several books already and is currently writing another one (something he and I have discussed as though we were intellectual equals or dare I say friends). I imagine I'll spend some time in the library today finishing off the Larkin biography and perhaps reading Jill if I can find a copy.

What are your plans for the day /lit/, literary and otherwise?
