Spoke too soon

It appears, as things tend to do, that I spoke too soon with my misery and self-pity. Ah the immediacy of the blog. Well, of course, here I am now with my foot in my mouth. After writing that tirade, I wandered out into the hall and met the girls.

We were all international, mostly American, and none of us were particularly happy with our nunnery situation. But one thing I have to say is that everyone I met was really friendly and personable, and I was really impressed. Something I hadn't banked on was that we would all get along so well. I met my new roommate, we went for a walk and checked out our new digs. Sterile and reeking of 1970's disaster, still the rooms were big, the kitchen full of space and we were generally pretty pleased. Move-in goes through on Saturday.

International Orientation was more of the same, trying to get a feel for this town and meeting people en route. Everyone I have met so far seems very smart, very friendly and easy to talk to. I know that we are all here to make friends, so you can't necessarily judge, but overall I think we are a good giant crowd.

Not much else to ponder right now, I am looking forward to having my internet connection set up and a home to call my own!
