Hey...
At last I managed to have some access to the net. It's so hard to communicate once you're in boarding. I don't know what day it is, I don't know how long I've been here, it just feels like a long time. The orientation is over now thankfully, but it's been really packed the last few days, just activities non-stop. I'm really tired out. Everything's pretty new here, takes some getting used to, obviously.
Even the coms are different. The whole school and the boarding house are flooded with eMacs. Those white ones with no CPU no nothing, just a keyboard and a monitor. Everything is hidden somewhere and blended in all over, and it's really dumb. Why don't they just make everything nice and conspicuous? Well, and the layout takes some getting used to as well. Windows is the best. Oh and the school has a wireless network too. The facilities are pretty good...
Oh...and you know what? I'm in the ORANge house. (Who ever heard of an Orange house?!) It's called Stirling. All the houses are named after Scottish castles. I was really hoping to be in Atholl (no prizes for guessing which colour...you know where my loyalties lie back in CHS =) but after the house meeting, I began to feel, hey, Stirling's not so bad after all. The House Captains are pretty cool too. PLC just has SO many sports activities...this is where I live...you know, like.. *LIII-vve. I'm planning to take up tennis, athletics (duh) and rowing. Rowing sounds kinda interesting, thought I'd give it a try...though I hear you get wicked blisters on your palms after that... =)
I'm rooming with 2 other people, a Jap and a honky...Hopefully next year I'll get my own room. The boarders are really fun, most of them, and we have game rooms and the like, so you can pretty much keep as busy as you want during spare time. PK'll be interested to know there's a pool table in the games room...but wait..there's a catch (there's always a catch to anything that seems too good to be true =) yeah, it's a scaled down pool table, the balls are so small, table's so small, one ball's missing and one working stick (with a plastic tip, *groan). But something is better than nothing eh?
Anyway, good luck to the Forensic-ers, fill me in on everything, and win something back yeah? How's the duet going HL? How's school? I mean nothing's burnt down or anything has it? Hahahah, anyway. Strange, you'd think I'd have lots to write about, but that's about all I can muster. It's not a very good nor interesting entry this time round, but hopefully it'll look up later on. Must be my mind...it's really mussed up and stagnant right now. Can't think properly...I just wanna settle down properly.
Bout time to go unpack I guess. See ya guys. Sigh.
