First "look" - Nottingham

It's 9:50pm on a Monday night - even though this blog is still set in Singapore time.
Haha. I wonder if I should leave it, or change it to UK time?

Anyhow, it's Day 1 in University of Nottingham.

Many things to settle! Student registration, module registration, getting the internet access, and just settling down - getting used to Hall and stuff like that.
Need to get a system of things - showering, doing laundry (dirty clothes piling up!), mealtimes, getting water, toilet usage (especially in the middle of the night!), going in and out of rooms (need to lock everytime), doing my QT (almost non-existent so far) and stuff like that...

And so many things to attend - briefings, talks.. many forms to fill and hand in.. Ah.. overwhelming!

Most importantly, I need to get used to the cold! It's freezing and when I am outside, I try my darnest to be in directly under the sunlight when I can to get the warmth.

My room is alright i guess, just very old and not in good condition. My drawers don't close/open properly, hooks are missing.. and my sink's separate hot/cold water taps makes it extremely difficult to get warm water. Oh, and there is a bee in my room (dead by now I hope) too. Other than that.. I quite like it - it's big and well equipped! :)

Pictures and better updates when I am more settled? Then it will be a proper "First look". Haha. Need time to slowly adjust and get the hang of things, bear with me meantime! (I need to try bear with it myself too!)
