The only problem I have with being in school for the better part of the day is having to eat alone at lunchtime. Apart from that, being on my own in school has eliminated distractions and I've done quite a lot of revision.
Problem is though, at lunch, it wasn't even that nice out and it was quite windy which doesn't make for good alfresco eating condition but being on my own whilst everyone else was sat with friends just made me feel lonely and self conscious. So I ate as quickly as possible and am now back in the library.
Last summer when I did work experience for most of the holiday I had to eat lunch on my own all the time and I still haven't gotten used to it. I went to Costa and sat in a corner sofa with a book and my food for the most part as that way I didn't draw much attention to myself and there are always people sitting with laptops and books on their own in cafes. I even ate at a restaurant a couple of times but I felt too self conscious to fully enjoy my food. I mean, personally, I don't judge people eating in restaurants on their own but I'm certain that some people do. Plus, who wants to be watched whilst they eat? That's just uncomfortable.
