Daily updates are slowing now as I have LEFT the hotel where I often have nothing better to do than to update you all and also had ready internet. I'm sure you see where this is going, folks.

Yeah. I haven't got the internet hooked up in my room just yet. I THINK that as soon as I get my hands on a wire (Just missed the shop closing) I ought to be able to get it going alright, but that's going to have to wait til morning at least. CURRENTLY IN THE COMPUTER LAB TYPING ON AN IRISH KEYBOARD. Things are in odd places. I'm not too sure about this. Seriously. The " is over the 2. wtf is that? @ is where the " should be. ~ and # are right next to enter and I keep hitting it on accident. Wtf is ¬ and why is where ~ should be?

ENOUGH OF THAT THOUGH. If weird symbols show up, it's not my fault. Blame the keyboard. >| (I just stared at the keyboard for a good 30 seconds looking for |)

STORY. My apartment-mates and I were tired of being disconnected so we sauntered over here to the computer room (which is in an old victorian building, pitures at somepoint, promise) and Singapore Guy Whose Name I Can't Pretend To Spell and Oana's (from Romania) let them log right in while Cali (Callie? Cally? wtf idk. She's from California!) are having issues and hopping computers trying to get the network to LOG US IN.

Finally, I decide to check for the easy solution.

The ethernet cable wasn't plugged in. Problem solved. So I've managed to set my network password, which should mean I can access the damn internet once I get the cable in order to patch into it but really, this internet business is an ADVENTURE!

Oh, I got coathangers today. 20 of them! I am excited to hang my clothes up when I go back to the room. *_*

I have great roommates though, it's so exciting! Our whole house is post-grad and it's scarily international. Like, seriously! I've been haviong crazy random conversations-- like I talked to Alex and Daniel about American politics and the presidential debates--how were those, by the way? HARD TO KEEP UP WITH ON MY SIDE. Snuzz. I expect a full report--but Alex is from England (Oxford area) and Daniel is from Germany (originally from the north but lived in the south more recently and didn't give me city names). It was really an interesting perspective! The idea that Bush and his idiotic and incompetent speeches actually has some sort of talent because he still managed to get elected despite all his flaws and mistakes.

Shannon from Detroit and Gianna from Cape Cod are both Equestrians.

Jess from Wales, Kacie from Atlanta and Colleen from Alaska are in my Anglo-Irish Lit program.

George and Singapore Roomie are Computer Science, Oana is engineering (polymers)

WE'RE SO VARIED!

I'm having a blast. Entry too long already. Must hang clothing. MISS YOU ALL DEARLY!!
