induction week

its been a week since i've reached Leeds. i've been really busy.

the first thing that i did when i got over the jet-lag was to visit the city centre. my cousin actually took 3 days' worth of leave to bring me around the uni and the city centre. :) hoho. i dunno what i wld've done wo him showing me the place. i really need to get accustomed to walking alot. my hostel is 10 mins away from sch and 20 mins away from the city centre by foot. so theres really no point taking public transport when there is a traffic light every 50 meters and the bus frequency is like 10 mins.

then, it was the talks about my course, briefing about my lectures and IT facilities in sch. it was boring yet informative. but the induction week is more or less over now. and the real lectures and tutorials are kicking in next monday. hope it'll be better then the talks.

oh yes, and my uni registration. it was giving me quite a headache till this afternoon. thank goodness its been settled already. there was some miscommunication between my mum and i. i told her to transfer my tuition fees to the uni's barclay a/c straight. but she thought it my was a/c that i was talking about and sent extra 3000 pounds there. but now, eth's good. the sch got the money and will send back the extra money tranferred. so i dun have to chase the sch for my 3000 pounds.

i guess, this is part of settling down and really integrating into the Leeds community. i really do hope i can find a place for myself in this lovely city. i should really take some time off to take pics of this place and upload it. :)

okay, its 6:46pm now. time for dinner. =D
