so i am safely in athens for my first morning today. i slept alright for my first night at my new apt. it is so much bigger than my apt from last year, and with the same number of ppl!! crazy!
i like my roomate so far; her name is Kellie and is from stanford. i already kinda knew of her from one of the trenchmasters/grad students from the dig this summer who told me about her; she's very nice-- not like some other former roomates. the second one ive met is named katie, or something....she's really quiet and skiddish. perhaps shell be the weird one and not me...hehe...
i just got my textbooks for the semester and they, together, weigh a whole lot and i have to carry them all in one plastic bag back to my apt, about a 15-20 min walk. wheeeew!
next i need to take the metro tot he ariport and find the customs office so i can get my packages with all my clothes and such to finish getting delivered. i want clean clothes!!!
then it's off to the bus station w/nate and perhaps a very sad farewell for an unknown period of time. we dont knwo when we'll be able to get together again and explore our respective cities together. so, it's gloom coming my way for that at least...
then at 7pm is the school orientation and then class dinner out on the town. perhaps ill actually get to mingle w/my classmates tonight because last night was just to fatiging ( if that's a word) and chaotic. im so glad to have slept well last night. and my neighborhood is actually rather quiet at night! yes!
well, gtg do more schtuff
