My adventure thus far

Hello-
This has been an adventure, yes I have heard all about this place for the past two years but being here and going through all the process is an adventure in itself. So far much of my precieved notions were correct, there are things that are better, and things that are not. My first experience with the cold was when stopping off the plane. Josh tried to convice me to not wear a hat, scarf, or zip up my coat. Fortunatly I did't listen. The wind here really gets going and anything not coverd is fair game. I later found out that Josh just wanted a good picture. Once our lecture about the station was done, we headed up this hill tward the Heavy Shop (where Josh works), to get a pick up so we didn't have to haul our bags to the dorm. By the time I reached the top I found myself saying, yes belive it or not, I'm Hot. I was wearing way to many layers of clothes. The onlything to the flip side of that was, my face. I had to touch it to see if it was still there. Like I said earlier, the wind is rough.
Our dorm is better than expected, larger anyway. It is a small walk from everything else in town but not bad. As said earlier in the blog, we hope to move into a building a little closer.
Dinner last night was well, not as good as everyone brags about. I was expecting gourmet meals, much to my surprise the spagehtti was not. However, brunch this morning was delicious. I guess they were having an off night. Thats all for now. Will post pictures soon.
