Orientation

Today was orientation for school. We took a taxi there because it was too cold to walk in the morning. Note to self: don’t take a taxi to school unless it’s absolutely necessary, such as the bus is not running or my legs are broken because taking a taxi is expensive. But don’t worry we walked home, and it only takes 30 minutes. The university is small but has a ton of buildings and it seems that all of them are really spread out (Yay! more walking). The tap water tastes funny so I was really happy to have some juice (that has no sugar) to drink. The jelly also isn’t very sweet, but the good news is that I hear they have Oreos. I’ll have to go shopping tomorrow for some real food such as Oreos and juice. On the tour, they took us to one of the pubs in the school. Not only do they allow drinking but they encourage it. We were told the best place to go out to drink, where the closest place is to buy beer, and the cheapest. It is really different from the US. The ERAMUS students are throwing us a party on Friday night, it’s supposed to be a game night, but I think it’s going to be more of a party-party.
