Mobile Number

I got a mobile phone, which has the number 07757-403907

Southampton

Made it to the UK! Flight was easy, no hang-up, but I was pretty jet-lagged yesterday.

Got settled into a little room. Everything is pretty quiet here because they have exams until Friday. Found my way into Archers, the pub next door. A few people were watching the Man U- Man city match. I think I'll be a bandwagon Man United fan.

We went to a club called Oceana afterwards. Someone said it was the largest in England.

My full address is:

Romero Hall, Flat 14, Room 141

38-44 Archers Road

Bulky items or items that must be signed for should be labelled to go to the Gateley Hall reception desk.

Packed and Ready to Go

So I managed to put 6 months of life into 3 bags. Everything from camping and field equipment to a tie and blazer. All set to fly out tomorrow night!

I have a Skype Online number: (215) 600-0868. Anyone in the US can call and I'll answer if I'm at my computer. That number will also show up if I call you, so go ahead and pick up!

Still Stateside

Cheerio Chaps!

I have to be careful not to say that when I land in England, I don't want to give off the wrong impression.

At this point I'm still in Pennsylvania, excited to land in London in 9 days for a six month study abroad at the University of Southampton (Uni Soton? I have to work on English English).

I created this blog to keep a record for myself of where I am and what I'm doing over the next six months, and to keep all of you guys informed. I have no idea how long I'll stick with it.

If you want to contact me while I'm in England, Skype is probably the best way (ted.present). Email or Facebook will probably work, too.

Not much to say now, I just wanted to set up the blog so that it's there when I do have something to write.

Cheerio! (okay I'll stop. By the way, Cheerio is a small sausage in New Zealand)
