Argh

So I STILL don't have the internet at my flat, after three bloody days. The computer/internet campus registration process here is dumb. You have to send an e-mail to ResNet, and then they send you one back saying you're connected. So... yeah... send the e-mail Monday and still no....

Bastards.

I've just been slightly busy here, running around doing errands. Fortunately, though, my to do list is quickly getting very short. All I gotta do now is buy food, open a bank account, get a job, and join some clubs. (I could complain and postulate on each of these, but really, it's rather boring.) Still sounds like a lot, but trust me, it was four times as long when I started. Also, it doesn't help that I keep getting distracted from my tasks by things like cool thrift stores and poster sales...

Due to the nature of me being a poor, cheap student, I (of course) walk to my errands instead of taking the bus. The bus isn't too expensive, only £1 a ride, but most of the stuff is within walking distance so it's ok anyway. Yesterday, however, I started walking until 9am and basically didn't stop except for meals and couple of quick meetings, and then went dancing late into the night. I'm getting all the exercise I didn't do over the summer in now. I really want to figure out on Mapquest exactly how far I ended up walking, since I went across town about 3 or 4 times. (That or you can send me a pedometer for my birthday.) I figure it'll be good for me, especially since the rugby trials are on Friday. Yes, "trials," not "try outs." Go figure, them Scots is strange.

The weather here has been GORGEOUS. It's absolutely mental how nice it's been. It sprinkled a couple of times yesterday, but it's been sunny, clear, and warm the whole time. I'm trying to enjoy as much of it as I can before it starts to get really cold.

Ok, I'm off to the Sports and Societies fair and to look for a job at the Centre for Sport and Exercise (the student gym, which you have to pay for! how lame is that?).

More later!

p.s. I finally have a cell phone here!But don't think I'm gonna waste my money calling you in the US ;) Download Skype and we'll talk. Actually, it's sort of ironic, it's 5p for calls to the US, 7p for calls to Europe, and 15p for calls in the UK. Funny.
