I sat on the side of the sofa where she was sitting.

Why did you move away?  I asked.

Too hot. My mum said. Stay away from me.

I wanted to see what you are practicing. I complained.

Look. She flipped the scores.

I came all the way from upstairs to be by your side and stick on you! (我专门从楼上下来，到你身边粘你的！）I continued complaining.

But you are too warm! She said.

I hate global warming.

Talked to a friend about quitting with funding because I was curious. It’s better than I thought.

So obviously you need to payback the money during leave etc., then the overpaid maintenance and fieldwork money. And the worst thing they can do is ask you to payback all the fees after MPhill, which is typically after year 2.(Somehow I remembered you need to payback fees after year 1! Which is like 17000 per year or something??) Also I’ve been told nobody ever does that. Phew
