So far...

... so good! I have arrived safe and sound in Dundee and I'm liking it! My appartment is simply brilliant, the city is nice, and the people are incredibly friendly! It seems that everywhere you go and people hear that you are foreign they randomly start chitchatting with you about where you're from, what you're doing here, etc.

Uni looks good. The convenor of my MSc has been very helpful with arranging stuff for me and finding things out, and I'm actually looking forward to starting classes. Also, I found myself a job as a bartender with the infamous Dundee University Student Association (check it out at www.dusa.co.uk), a building which houses four different bars. I just had two introduction days, and met so many cool people that I'm pretty sure this year is gonna be an absolute blast.

My father just left. My landlord is bringing him to the airport now, which is very kind of him, considering that he had to pick my father up at 6:45 in the morning. This afternoon, the landlord's son, who is a teammate of Just (the landlord is his coach), will pick me up and we will drive to Edinbrough together to pick up Just. He's also gonna love it here.

This afternoon I have my first bartender party for all bartenders of the Union (approximately 100, or so I think), with a free BBQ and supposedly quite some free booze. It will be fun to meet these people drunk tonight, and I'm so definitely looking forward to it! After that, there will be an afterparty close to my place, so I should go and check that out...

I'm going back to bed... I was up at 6 making coffee for my father.
