Irish Friend Count: ONE!
woohoo.
today i did the nerd thing and decided to
go for a tour of the Medical Library,
since im planning to spend most of m time there anyway.
well, only me and another 1styr MedStudent turned up.
and we really hit it off.
maybe its because she's part American
and lived in NYC so i could understand
what she was saying (:
anyway, more pictures of Belfast!
City Hall again.
i can't help it, it's beautiful
with the huge white marble columns and
lost of statues of (probably) famous Irish.
there's a nice garden in front and
all these people were lying around.
talking and smoking.
so nice (:
My Toilet.
if you look properly through the mirror
the mantelpiece (up right) is really tiny
and i have to cram everything in here.
this is taken from the shower area
so you can't see that but it's VERY small.
i can't even stretch my hands fully in the shower.
My Table!
as you can see, lots of wires everywhere
because i have lots of gadgetry.
and see if you can find my box of mooncakes!
haha.
My Room from the front door.
the white thing's the heater
(or so i am told..) but it doesn't work.
my room is so tiny it takes
one step to reach every part.
View From My Window.
i people-watch here.
(:
Entrance Of Elms Village.
(where all the 1st Yrs stay).
from here it's another 10 mins to my apt.
oh, and today i walked into M&S
and looked straight at this guy and almost screamed.
(the tall one obviously)
i must learn how to walk on stilts.
til tomorrow, bye!

ahh...my room in australia was much bigger than that! must be all the land they have! haha. ok, but at least you're really fortunate that you have your own bathroom!
yes, the white thing is a heater. it works by radiating heat as hot water flows through it. try to see if there is some sort of a tap attached to the unit and 'turn it on' as you would turn on a tap. if nothing happens still, then they probably didn't turn on the central boiler.
YAYY you're no longer a loser :)
yea that's standard size for most uni accommodation rooms in the UK. you get used to it after awhile and for private accommodation, the bathrooms are no bigger than your powder room.
havent you gotten your heater fixed already? did you tell reception?
yeay!! u found ur future bff!!:) at least u dont hv to share a room with 7 ppl rite?? n EVEN WORSE...i dont hv to share a toilet!
jason: showoff! haha. yeah my own bathroom (: it doesn't work!!
caleb: i was never one!
phyebeng: nope.. i dont really need it at the moment, i close the window at nights and sleep under 2 quilts.
lauren: YEAH THANK GOD (: can u imagine having to share?! eeee.
whee! friend to ask questions! haha
ho: YEAH! haha let's hope Monday i'll make some more. hopefully they'll be like you guys.
you are paying top dollar for the accommodation. it's a good idea to make sure everything works cuz if the heater is really spoilt and you leave it till the end of the year, you might loose your accommodation deposit if they think you broke it.
