I need to get in the habit of writing more down at the end of each day, because now I'm not entirely certain what happened or when. Everything is just a blur.
With all that said, here's what (I think) happened:
We had a welcome meeting at 10am. We were required to bring a paper emailed to us with information on it to the meeting. I had printed it out before leaving the States, but surprise! I forgot it. Oh well, it wasn't the end of the world.
The meeting was very informative, but overwhelming. We were told how to register for our modules (courses) and given a sheet of paper to have filled out and signed by each courses' head of the dept. This was all due on Thursday. Two days to fill this out, everyone. TWO DAYS.
After the meeting was over, I headed back to go over the time tables and see what courses would fit best in my schedule/make the most sense to take. I had some courses equated at Towson prior, but now things felt up in the air.
Plus, the time tables were all over the place and confusing and I was like "what"...so I decided to venture out and see if Harry could help. I literally couldn't have left my room at a better time because my other flat mate, Harriet (who is an exchange student from Australia), was just leaving her room. We got talking and she told me how we apparently have a tall Harry and a short Harry (she had met short, I had met tall) who we share the kitchen and bathroom with...(there's two other girls as well, but I've only met one still.) So it's Harry, Harry, Harriet and Heather.
Then, Harriet and I went on a little adventure with Maddie (another exchange student from Australia) to the pier and did some shopping on High Street.
That night we had a compulsory meeting (a "social gathering"), where there was traditional Welsh food and music. We did the "Twmpath"...some sort of Welsh dance. That was interesting.
After that, Harriet, Maddie, Alex (another Australian) went to a bar with some Americans (there's like a group of 45 here from Iowa). There was a Tardis wall decal in the bar, so I was internally freaking out.
Also, I go to school at Hogwarts. I have yet to find the beautiful library I saw online, but I'm keeping my eye out.
