Well, I haven't been that bored, actually, as I've been spending much of my free time reading so good books, like The Golden Compass, and Blue Like Jazz. The annoying thing about the Golden Compass is that it's hard to find the second book in the series (used, at least), although I found the third. Exactly the same thing that's happened to me regarding the Obsidian Chronicles. Ah well, I'm sure eventually I'll come across them.
So, I've been here for almost two weeks. I've played some hockey (and soccer and volleyball, once each), and done quite a bit of biking, mostly along Lochside and the (Galloping) Goose. I have a job interview tomorrow, and start class on Friday, which I'm looking forward to. I'm also trying to develop some idea of what to do for my project (a component of my degree that I will be looking to complete by April). I'm thinking of doing something about education in Africa, but I'm planning on reading up on what current issues are before I try to formulate a plan ... because, that's generally better than coming up with something out of the blue ... generally, but not always. Maybe I'll try it both ways.
I miss thunderstorms.
Oh, and the new Harry Potter is now out, and to commemorate this auspicious occasion, I finally started re-reading the 5th one. I'm planning on borrowing the 7th from a girl upstairs after she's done with it. I'm in no hurry. This does not mean I'm like one of those kids that help phone people think are going to be calling in because their emotionally traumatized by the end of the series. I'm not. Not even close.
