still settling in (yes, still)

i am tired. i've been tired ever since i got here. when i'm in a new situation and find myself not quite sure what to do, i tend to wander aimlessly or sit in my room surfing the web...and staying up late, for no reason. yeah, i've got to quit the whole staying-up-late-for-no-reason thing.

anyway, i don't know if i'm going to meet my goal of being completely unpacked and settled before classes start tomorrow or not. it'll be down to the wire for sure. sadly, i think i'll probably still have a few things (or maybe a lot) floating around looking for a place in the room when i head out to durand (the aero/astro building) tomorrow.

nevertheless, today was very productive, despite the fact that my advisor didn't stick to the office hours he had posted, and thus i couldn't meet with him. i had a yummy lunch in tressider (the union), got some questions answered in the aa (aero/astro) department, signed up for piano lessons, auditioned for the flute ensemble, and figured out what classes i should go to tomorrow (since my advisor skipped out before i tracked him down so he could tell me what classes i should take...argh). tonight a group of us are checking out breakers, an "eating club" here. it's like a (cheaper) alternative to the dining hall, where we commit 2 hours each week to cooking or cleaning, and in return we get dinner sunday-friday and a key to access the fully-stocked kitchen for breakfast and lunch. i could probably fend for myself here in my apartment, but i think breakers may be a more social way to go. we'll see.
