Well, I've been here for a week now, and I'm still working on settling in. I still have some unpacking to do, but surprise surprise I've managed to put some of those things off.
My car hasn't arrived. I shipped my car through Dependable Auto Shippers and the original estimate on arrive was last Tuesday. As of right now, it has an estimated arrival date of Wednesday. I'm really hoping this is true b/c orientation begins Thursday and lasts for 2 days, all day. So turns out they're not so dependable after all.
But getting around hasn't been too difficult. Luckily there are a lot of restaurants and cafes within walking distance. The roommate and I attempted to ride the bus yesterday to go have brunch. We unknowingly stood on the wrong side of the street for 20 minutes. Once we realized we needed to go across the street, our bus came, but we didn't have enough money for a transfer. But once we get our student id's we'll be able to ride for free. I'm still going to need to study up so I know which side of the street I need to be on.
Tonight we went to this really cool indoor rock climbing gym called The Climbing Wall Inc. I haven't been rock climbing in over a year, so we were just bouldering within the gym. It was a lot of fun, but I was starting to feel it in my hands pretty quickly. Hopefully when I go back we'll be able to belay and do some more climbing.
