Instead she'll moan. Genius. Possibly crazy, but thankfully as inept financially as myself. My favourite blogging student lesbian. Not that there are loads. Just another student, raking his way through the daily pile of crap. Life in Canada. It's scarily poignant at times. Not preaching, more informing. With laughs, beer and tall tales. London's resident party animal and freebie fanatic. Can you feel the sleaziness? Yet another one of us blogging student types. Except he's funny. Sort of... Glorious b+w white photos of London and other places. Simply the most passionate blogger around. His days must be full to bursting with things to do just to put on the blog. A Scottish mother who loves the pipes. Read into that what you will. A great little blog by an American college girl. She even plays a British sport... Yet another of us blogging students. Yes, we really are that lazy. A Swedish (I think) guy who includes me in his 'Blogs As Literature' section. i.e. possibly mad. A London blogger who is fascinated by the overall concept of blogging. He's written a few papers on the subject too. One if the most dedicated blogs, a Londoner who gets up to fifty times as much stuff as I ever do. A British media student / graduate who loves his music. And his boozing. A disgruntled teacher, buried somewhere in Europe. A Canadian mother who seems to like my blog. The so-called Expert Analysis of this very blog, as spoofed by one of my ex-housemates. An American girl who has a thing for British guys. Fair play.

Still Here, Still Struggling

Hmmm, so I still don't have internet in my room yet, which is a little annoying. I shall have to buy a LAN cable tomorrow, because, judging by the conversation that I had with the guy at the university Rechzentrum (computer building), I should be ready to get the university network installed on my laptop. Now if only I wasn't so lazy, I could've got the cable already. Damn my lack of forward-thinking.

In other news, I have settled into my room at the university halls. It's here if anyone is that interested. The big problem with it (other than no internet yet) is that there is barely anybody on my floor yet. I've met 2 people, and I think that there may be 1 more floating around, but that's it as yet. With 15 rooms on the floor, it feels quite, quite empty.

It also isn't helping my German skills, because I'm barely speaking to anyone at all, let alone speaking German to anybody. The furthest I get is a simple exchange of "hello"s at the shop or something. It's clearly not enough at the moment.

It probably didn't help matters then, that I had a test yesterday for the language course that I'm going to be taking throughout September. It utterly destroyed any fragile self-confidence that I had in my German, completely and utterly.

But anyway, I must be leaving now. I'll finish this off another time. For now, I'm making friends. English ones, admittedly, but friends nonetheless.
