AHHHHHHHH!!!!

view from my window!

showers and socializing (not at the same time ;) )

So finally there is water again and i;ve taken two showers in the past like 12 hours, just in case it goes again. lets see... yesterday I had no class and did barely anything... napped.... but then at night Alexandra and I decided to be sociable and went down to the crazy end of the hall and was entertained for hours by the boys and their antics... at least there is entertainment whenever we want!

Today I had intro to greek archaeology at 9 am. ickkkk. but the prof is really nice and explained the arch library to me which I then went up to and did some reading.... need to do more but I need to get up the courage to ask the librarians for help...

On the way back from class and on the way to subway for lunch, I found a healthfood store, where I got fruitleathers!!! expensive, but a treat.

I love getting the caucas news from the brits. Some of the boys were actually going to watch it. and one of the americans didnt even know what it was. oh well. its all just interesting. Its also funny that everytime they mention football, they have to let us know that they mean soccer.... we know!! its just funny thats all.

funnnn

so i was about to write an entry when the third fire alarm in 2 days went off! yayyyyyy. ugh, and there has been no water in 3 days.... so no showers.... ugh.... fantastic!

First day of classes... well one class

Today was my first real day- real classes (well one) real cafeteria food, real experience(?). anyway, I got up early to eat breakfast which is only served from 8-930 and it was not that appetizing, but being optimistic- it wasnt that bad. then I walked around, sat in the archaeology park which was nice and was very early for class at noon- but thats not unusual for me. anyway, it was a good class- maritime arch, but it was so short and quick and he gave us the notes- why did i buy notebooks? and we are only meeting 9 times more, and only on the medival period. anyway, its just a half a class so thats fine... i think its just one paper and a in class paper (maybe). I asked if the books listed under each date were the ones needed to be read and he said if i wanted to. I have to figure out how to get the books. anyway, i am the only affiliate in the class right now, but thats ok. He was a very funny lecturer. I think i really like the british sense of humor. Then Amy and Alexandra and me walked to oxford street again- its such good shopping! its like having a mall like 10 blocks away! its prime sales time-- everything is cheap(er) so we better buy it now before sweaters become 40 pounds again (90 dollars). we then had ramsay hall dinner- which was ok. mashed potatoes and omlete and soup. This is all interesting. I love being an anthropologist and getting to analyze everything!! Thats one of the huge reasons i wanted to study abroad! I dont have class tomorrow and I have no idea what I am going to do! I got a different sim card for my phone to call home for cheaper- no change in the number tho! cheers!

My room!

Some pics of my room--- I need posters!

Sunday at IKEA

So I was going to go to the park today and explore by myself, but the girls on my hall were taking a trip to IKEA outside of London. So I had my first tube experience and found the IKEA, which was insane, but I got things I needed for my room, like a bowl and file holder and small blanket and hangers. Then we ventured back, tired and hungry and bought food stuff at tesco and went to dinner (pizza again). Its so cheap- 4 pounds for and individual pizza-- I think i will probably eat there alot. We went from restaurant to restaurant looking at the prices and couldnt eat at any of them... special nights maybe. The British students are moving in, met a bunch from my hall- they all are nice and it will be a good time on this hall I think. They say its a party hall, very sociable- which i'm happy about. Also they say the food downstairs isn't that bad. So thats good. Tomorrow I have a class (just one every day and none on tuesday), I have Marine Archaeology, which should be great. I have the usual worries of introducing my self to the lecturer (not proffesor) and the students. It will be fine tho.
