Metastasise

New College fell apart temperarily this week. First was the mysterious power outage on Friday. Then the replacement of regular plates and cutlery in the caf with plastic plates and cutlery. Then was the failure of two of the three washrooms on the floor, with the third one having 2/4 toilets working. Then the strange loss of cable and internet. Luckily, everything has been ameliorated now. (Except the T-Card system is still wonky)

Fix our window, you silly maintenance people.

Korean BBQ was delicious, and so is Baten Kaitos Origins.

Speaking Chinanese

Residence life is good so far. Being able to walk around downtown is really nice. No more "I can't go because I need a ride" sort of thing. Still getting used to communal showers. Need to continue to find the showers that don't periodically spray boiling water, spray water across 180 degrees, or make you feel as if someone was sprinkling you with water through a drinking straw. :( Also going to need to use the laundry room soon :O

So far I've attended at least one of each class. Only problems arise from Calculus. If we weren't just covering review material, I would have no idea what the professor is saying in his lessons. Textbook-learning time.

It's not busy yet, but eventually when practicals and tutorials begin I don't think there's going to be much time to do anything anymore. Sadness.

Objection!

VGL was pretty awesome and it exceeded my expectations. Mainly because I never expected the "Video Game Pianist" to be there. Yes, he is good enough to be *The* Video Game Pianist.

And so about now, many people are starting to move into university residence. I'll be joining the movement later today. I also ended up bringing a lot of things...but I usually end up doing that anyway for things like vacations. I guess it's how I approach change.

Oh noes no more home. I'll be at UofT St. George New College.
