Day Five:

Woke up to my alarm and had absolutely no idea where I was! Thought I was in a hostel in Europe backpacking again but rembered that I was in Glasgow and I had about 10 minutes to hike up the hill to our second day of orientation. This day  basicaly didn't have much going on other than a morning information service that was 3 hours long! We did hear some bagpipes tho because a guy came in and played some for us. But honestly the best part of the 3 hours was that they played a YouTube video. And not just anyone. They played the 11 Scottish Elevator video which I've constantly been showing everyone and my family way before I was coming to Scotland. 

I walked back and talked to a guy about croquet that they played on the commonwealth bowling grounds: 

I didn't take a lot of pictures today and I should have because right after this I saw a guy training his 3 dogs. And they were so obedient that a crowd of people started to form and wath this guy train his dogs. 

I met up with Emily, Mattes, Sydney and Harper and grabbed lunch at Ketchup; a local place where you can buy 2 burgers for the prices of one, and oh my gosh were they good! 

The people here are really friendly and willing to help! Before dinner I stopped by a bike station and ended up getting a cheap bike which will come in handy to get around: 

The night turned into a Hilarious event. We went to a comedy club and the people were so forward with their jokes that we didn't really know what to do. Laugh or just be quiet. Also they had very thick Glaswegian ascent which didn't help the situation. We met a couple of German girls and they came with us. They didn't think the people were funny. 

Day Four:

First day of orientation this should be fun. Time to meet more international students. We had to grab our ID's and student cards and then proceeded with the day events which was what I would call a Succesful Univentful Day, or SUD... Yes I just made that up. But basically we got some packets with events that will be happening the rest of the week and then in the middle of the day we got a walking your of our new Uni. We saw some of our fellow international students' halls and I'm sorry but what exactly am I suppose to do with this door? The handle is at my knee cap:

Rule number 27: enjoy the little things. There are 3 social events during the week and mine was tonight so we went to a Scottish Ceilidh - pronounced "Keili" which basicaly swing dancing. It was a great way to meet people and the funny thing I noticed about it was that they handed out a free glass or wine or a beer to everyone when you first walk in. Way different that at DU. Then again everyone here is older than 18.

Currently we have a group chat on Viber and some of the people we have met are awesome! American, German, Canadian, French and Netherlands: 

Syd and Noelle: Indiana 

Calvin - aka djmcnallypraize: Texas but goes to DU 

We then all went out for the night and it was fun hearing everyone's story from different parts of the world!
