Bit of a short post here before I have lecture…

It’s been a while since I posted last. Blame it on procrastination and being busy.

I have so much reading to do. It’s ridiculous. PSU gives you a textbook which is pretty much supplamentary reading (depending on the course). Here, they give you a textbook (which you’re pretty much required to read to help you understand it), and then a supplamentary reading list (optional but provided for additional help/understanding aka strongly suggested) of anywhere from 20-50 articles/books/publications. Kind of nuts. I don’t think it will be too bad, but I’m just having a bit of trouble thus far not getting overwhelmed by the amount of reading…This weekend is meant to be a bit of a “catch up” weekend, so hopefully I’ll have life sorted out by then.

On a happier note, I’ve properly joined the Hiking Society, and I’m REALLY excited about it 🙂

They have Sunday walks, weekend trips, and then “winter trips”. I wanted to start out with a Sunday walk, but my mom has posted my hiking boots last week, and I don’t know if they’ll be here in time for Sunday. So my first trip will be a weekend trip 14-16th October to Braithwaite in the Lake District which is in the north west of England, bordered on the north by Scotland.

The society had a social last night at a pub by uni, so I got to meet a fair number of people. I had a fantastic time, and everyone’s really nice 🙂

I have a bit of a crazy day today. 3 lectures and a tutorial, and the the first session of the Irish Dance Society tonight! Soooooo excited to be dancing again after a month+ of not really doing much 🙂 There also is an intro meeting for the Wilderness Medicine Society, which I may drop by to see what it’s all about.

Whew! Fast typing, quick post and lecture time now!
