Today I woke up at 8.00 in order to get to the bookstore for 8.30. If you'd have seen the queue at 12 this afternoon, winding three times around the store, you'd understand why I went early. I had to rent three textbooks, then purchase seven which cost me an insane amount of money. My wallet is still in severe pain.
I then took the Appalcart back to my room with my heavy bags, and dumped them on my bed. Meagan was still asleep so I went downstairs to the computer room to check my emails and such. I then arranged to meet Becca and Yukino for lunch. We sat with a load of the other international guys in the cafeteria, then headed to the Club Expo (like the freshers fair at Keele where you join clubs etc.) We then wandered round finding various professors to get timetabling issues sorted, then went back to the LLC to chill for a bit. I skyped some people, and took another shower in Coleens room (hopefully my last). The maintenance guys were in when I got back, and they have sprayed the shower with some awful stuff which smells like a mixture of glue and nail polish, and it gives you a headache if you're in the room too long. We've had the windows and doors open all day and thankfully the smell seems to be clearing away now. We should be able to use our brand spanking new shower tomorrow. YAY!!!
Lectures start at 9.30 for me tomorrow, which I'm quite excited and nervous about. Once I get into a regular schedule I'm sure everything will work itself out. So off to bed, because I'm getting up at 8. My room mate has 8AM classes on four out of five days, and I kind of feel bad for her. She chose to do a major in Geology with a minor in Paleantology which I think is really cool Off to bed now.
