Meeting new people and getting my own room

School has started. I've had classes in ethology, marine biology and understanding biological research. During these couple of days, I've shook hands with a handful of new people.

At the first lecture, me and Line were discussing where to sit. In Norwegian, I said "Should I sit next to that person? In Norway, I'd never sit right next to a stranger. That would be really weird!"
Then the girl turned to me, and asked in Norwegian "What do you study?"

I also met Beth and Tom, who will be on the same seminar group as me in UBR. Since I was the least shy of us all, the rest decided I'd be group leader.



I went to my first social of the Creative Writing society tonight. But I was so tired and Salt was so noisy, that I didn't really "meet" anyone.

Then I went home, and met Miss Twisted Ankle, who'd just twisted her ankle during basketball practice. I followed her to her room (which is in the same hallway as mine), and I borrowed some frozen vegetables form Sara for her to use.

During my seach for water bottles to freeze down, I met a Danish guy who lives one floor down.

So, yeah, a lot of new people. Not to mention all the new teachers! My teacher in ethology is a really good lecturer. The female teacher in marine biology talks really fast, but she has this aura that made me respect her from the very first minute. And the lecturer in UBR seems really nice. Tomorrow, I'll have my first class in Advanced Invertebrate Zoology.

Next topic: getting my own room. Sara was offered a single room, so I'm all alone now. I got a mail from the accomodation office, where they offered me to make my twin room into a single room. I don't have to move, but I'll pay 200 £ more. So if any of you girls manage to get a boy home, your roommate can crash here ;)
