ok...the internet system at this school is screwy, but i'll forgive them all because i figured out how to wirelessly cheat the system until i can get on officially. nice!
i have been walking all over the freakin place these last couple days and i still have very little clue as to where the hell i am and my legs are sore. however, i've come to find some really cool stuff and places i want to check out more in depth.
i moved into my dorm today...can't lie, the amenities are slightly nicer than at conn...even if they do come with awkward pink paint on the walls. i don't really have a good view, which is rather disappointing, but i can see part of arthur's seat from my window. the bathroom, however, does pale in comparison to home. it's a one person thing really that has a toilet, sink, and shower all in one little room like my bathroom at home. so if someone's taking a shower or going to the bathroom, there's almost no way you can do the same.
oh! funniest thing! i saw this random guy on the side of princes street all painted silver and miming...he was so much like the guy from eurotrip that the girl i was with and i had to stop and watch for a few minutes. it was amazing.
yeah, so....i don't really know what else to say. i'm attempting to register so that i can go online, but it's gonna take a while. i also found out that i apparently had vacation reading for a class i'm enrolled in this semester....that would have been nice to know a little earlier. but because i didn't have my university of edinburgh email address, i didn't know until yesterday. oh well, hakuna matata.
ok....so, i'm done i think...ttyl

Hi Kate,
Glad you've landed on your feet and are settling in there. What courses are you taking? Your Aunt Kathy spent a year in Brighton at the Univ. of Sussex and most of her courses were tutorials - meeting with a professor with only a few other students. Very intense, and it would be obvious right away if you hadn't done the reading. I can't say I remember much about the 24 hours I spent in Edinburgh other than the performance of Faustus, which was phenomenal. Best of luck from all of us.
