Hello Again!

I have got to tell you, I have never been quite this happy to have internet access in all my life. We had to register with our schools of study before they would give us our usernames and passwords, and then we had to log into a UEA computer before we could connect our own computers to the network. Since I didn't register until this morning, I've been without contact with friends and family for a few days. Sorry!

The flight was fine; long, but fine. Everything went perfectly. We had to wait for the luggage van for a while once we arrived in Norwich, but that was no problem. I got to my room and got settled in. There's only one other girl in my flat that I know of, so far. I thought I heard other people move in, but she said they were probably downstairs. Everyone else will probably move in this weekend. My room is tiny. It's literally a hole in the wall. I don't have that much stuff, though, so I don't need a big room or a big closet. My bathroom is also rather small, which kind of bothers me, because I don't like being in there with the door closed. I'm in the University Village, which is kind of far away from campus, but the walk is nice--it goes through a park--and it's good for me. I haven't had to do it at night yet, though. Then I might be more concerned.

Yesterday, I didn't do much except explore the campus (but I still don't know where hardly anything is!) and go on a bus tour of Norwich. It's a nice little city. I like it. On Sunday, I'm going on a walking tour, which means I have to find out how to get to Norwich Cathedral.

I haven't met very many people yet; just the guy who helped me get my stuff to my room and the other girl in my flat. All the orientation stuff started today, and we still have 6 or so people left to move into our flat, so I'm not worried. It's kind of lonely, though.

Um, who wrote that post? I don't recognize you by the name "anonymous". And from your tone, I assume I'm supposed to know you from somewhere.

Oh, and thanks for catching my error! I fixed it. That's embarrassing for an English major.
