Today was International Orientation Day. As I surmised, it was minimally useful. It was from 9am-12pm followed by free lunch. I really had to come here FOUR DAYS EARLIER for three hours of information sessions? We couldn't fit those three hours in sometime next week, during the ENTIRE WEEK of orientation? The lunch was decent, but still, not worth being here FOUR DAYS EARLY.
After that I decided to go to the mall to buy some stuff I needed. Apparently I think I'm hot shit, because I didn't even bring my map with me into Canberra. After wandering around for like half an hour, I made it. I went to Target and Borders...ooOOOoooo how exotic! Australian Target is totally lame though. Not at all the same. I guess I was feeling all cocky because I found the mall sans assistance, so I decided to take a short cut back to school...only it wasn't actually a shortcut so much as me walking in the opposite direction I should've been. But I made it back to my dorm eventually too, obviously. Take that, map! I don't need you!
I also decided I am better than jet lag. It's going well.
I finally ran into someone else that lives on my floor. I forgot her name, but she was nice. Tomorrow I'm going to a BBQ and tea with traditional Australian foods. Hopefully that will be more exciting than today.
I keep wanting to talk in a British accent. I have no idea why. Also, why isn't Project Runway on YouTube yet? I am bored and want to use up all my prepaid internet to watch it, mmkay thanks.
