Housekeeping

I'm feeling kind of lazy right now and thus not in the mood to write in narrative or descriptively for that matter, but I would like to make some notes:
  • Classes started today (finally!). Here's the final list of classes ("modules") that I am taking:
  • I have a lot of classes in the Alan Turing building, which is the home of the Maths department here. I think that's a pretty kickass name.
  • The Sainsbury's (supermarket closest to my flat) has a whole aisle devoted to chips (French fries).
  • British girls really don't like pants. I mean trousers; "pants" here means "underwear."
  • British girls look very mature for their age. For one thing, I look younger than my flatmates, even though they are 3 years younger than me.
  • Ivy and I signed up for street dancing class. The first lesson is this Thursday.
  • It snowed today! According to my flatmate Sergei, this is the first time he's ever seen it snow during his entire time at Manchester thus far. I thought I had left the snow behind in Pittsburgh :-/
  • My desk is almost clean.
  • Apparently I don't have as much time as I thought I did to travel about.
  • I've been cooking almost every meal. I'm getting better at making food that doesn't taste bland, which makes things more interesting.
  • I watched the Super Bowl on BBC One. I wish I could've been in Pittsburgh to riot.
  • I'm going to Liverpool this Saturday!
