So, FINALLY I have internet access set up in my room, and the University semester has kicked off to a rolling start. This week I've only had 4 days, with 2 hours of class on each day, but there's really been enough to do - shopping, cooking attempts, sorting out bank accounts and my internet and sightseeing.

Yesterday I walked to the shoreline.













It took about 2 hours, one way and was TINY, a full on industrial area, and there were NO WAVES :(. Oh well, at least that removes some temptation :P.

These are my English flatmates:

Jess, Jen and Ruth (left to right) all freshers, I'm the oldest of us all (wow, for once i'm the oldest!).

So far I've met lots of international students; there are TONNES from America, and a few people in my course.

Oh, and there is sun in Edinburgh:

Even if it is pouring next hour... (Then sunny again the hour after that...)

Oh, and Jess is having a belated P-party tonight. She's Puss in boots, Jens' poison ivy, Ruth, pregnant (or powerranger, she hasn't quite decided...) and mine is where the title of this blog entry comes in...
