Waiting and Exploring ...

Now we have been two days and 14 hours in Boring Green. No, it's not a typo, it's aword play. We are bored out of our minds. Really! We are still currently living on campus, meaning little bedrooms with nothing included. :) We have been at the mainstreet three times so far an tried to find something interessting, but that's quite impossible here. It's a big area actually, but nothing to do. I hope but I'm confident that this is going to change when the actual courses starts.

Yesterday, we have been at a shopping mal. It was pretty big, with an H&M, Pottery Barn, ... and a lot more. I just got some nice magazins dealing with filmmaking. That's pretty cool here, 'cause you won't find such magazines in austria or germany. Afterwards we went to Fred's house watching television and I was as happy as a child on christmas, because I watched a epsiode of House M.D. (Dr. House) of the third season which is not coming to europe untill this fall - but the best thing is that at the end of august Fox is going to show the fourth season of House, so I will donwload the third season via iTunes, watch it and catch up with the fourth season in fall. Live is good! I'm also looking forward to Nip/Tuck. That's going to be a blast. ;)

After having lunch at Subway, Martin and I were wandering around campus. We haven't been there, I don't know why because it's sooo awesome. It's like you would imagine it ... it's like you are on location of the Gilmour Girls or one of a romantic teenie comdy movie - Haha. You need a lot of time to go around the whole campus once. Never try to compare it with the area of the Salzburg Univertsity of Applied Sciences. We even found a large building in the middle of the campus which has a bookstore with all the books you need for your courses as well as a Starbucks, a Wendy's (a huge fast food company like Mc Donalds or Burger King) a supermarket, an arcade, ... it's so awesome. I'm pretty looking forward being here every day. I think it's going to be cool.

By the way. I knew it, the whole pregnancy stuff is all a big hoax. Yeah right, stork and female human being - this is were babies really come from:

Tomorrow starts our orientation week, it's for all new undergraduate exchange students. They prepared a whole lot of thing for us such as information events, an english test, a TB test but also some fun things like ice skating, movie night and a barn dance (pretty curious about that). So there are a lot of things ahead of me I'm going to write about the next days. Check back to see how "Boring Green" turns into "Bowling Green". ;)
