Campus life
Am now well lodged in England. Term started officially yesterday, and I’ve already had my first job interview. I’m hoping on getting it, the job is ideal, and it would allow me to save for my next rent installment, and by a lucky chance get me to New York in February. Oh, how I’d love that, but the trip is £520, if I remember correctly, and that’s a lot. But it’s the US, and it’s New York even though it is February and mid winter. Grr. New York.
Course seems great, the tutors are really nice and have shown us really great short films/videos. First assignment was very basic and easy, but fun still. Everyone’s not a the same level using cameras etc, so a mandatory induction and introduction course is only reasonable.
Just to note, everything is really expensive in the UK. So beware, a paperback book costs £8 or more - WTF!!! Some things are cheaper, but that’s only because it’s cheaper to get it to the UK than getting it to Finland. Movie tickets are £7, £5 for students, which still is a lot. But movies are movies! Must sees!
Just updating to ensure everyone I’m actually alive. Lethargic, but alive non-the-less. Must now get sleep before I pass out.

I just realised that you have a pug?! I love pugs!

I do have a pug, back in Finland! I miss him, though he sometimes can be a right little nuisance! I’d love to give him a hug though, but won’t be able to until December.
