Argh, what a dreary, miserable day today. Sunday and Monday, while it did rain, the sun came out at times. Not so today - cloudy and dreary all day. We started our orientation with a campus tour and introduction to the faculty of arts today, although the latter was geared more towards undergraduate students. As far as I can tell, I'm the only international student in my program, although I won't know for sure until Monday, of course, when classes start. Last night was really noisy outside my window, with a bunch of drunk guys singing Irish rebel songs. *rolls eyes* Great. Although it was also amusing.

Registered with the nurse today and I was quite amazed to discover that I get all my medical care completely free! Kind of sad when another country treats you better than your own, eh?

Had another girl move into the flat today - a PhD student from Germany. She seems really nice.
