scotland

we finally have internet after a week here! been shopping for lots of stuff. and been walking a LOT. we went to the west end festival last weekend and walked or stood for like 7 hours! so tiring.

the sun sets at like 11pm here. the weather was nice and sunny for the first few days we were here but this morning it rained and it was so cold today. and i have to complain about their coins! they have 1 and 2 pound coins instead of notes. and all their coins are so big. they take up so much space and they're heavy! what's their problem. bah.

this sem is a really busy sem coz we have to finish it within the summer holidays so that we can join the locals in sem 7 when school restarts. we have classes 9-5 every day, with 1 or 2 hours for lunch. 2 labs a day every monday, wednesday and friday. lectures on tuesday n thursday. haih.

btw, we have this mentor-mentee system in imu where we each get a senior who can help us and give us notes and stuff. my mentor's really nice. she gave me so much stuff! notes, medicine, hangers, stationery. and best of all, she gave me two autumn n winter jackets, for 5 pounds! and also lots of ankle socks, gloves, a beanie and a matching scarf. luckily she's about the same size as me. :)

i've got lab tomorrow and i should be reading up tomorrow's experiment but i'm so lazy..
