Shopping, King's college
Yesterday, I went to the main site of the Engineering Department to get an
access card and another computer account. I waited for 40 minutes and when
I asked whether they forgot about me it turned out the person I was
supposed wasn't actually there. Doh! So I went to my work place,
connected my laptop with the IP address I stole from a Windows client there
and found out that I had been assigned an IP address for my room. My two
supervisors also scheduled a meeting with me for the next day, at 9 in the
morning (ouch). After catching up on e-mail and having dinner, Daniel
Silverstone kindly came by with his car and took me shopping to the big
Tesco. I bought various things, like Pint glasses and some food. I was
surprised how little money I spent for all the things, and the whole thing
didn't take too long even if Daniel wants to make people believe otherwise
(actually, let me mention that he claimed he was patient, but then was
crying like a baby after shopping with me for 5 minutes!). Anyway, during
the day (after lunch), I stopped for a minute to take some pictures and
thought that I can be really happy to live in such a beautiful city.
Today, got up at about 8.30 and left at about 8.57 for my meeting. Talked
about my research interests for an hour, and then my supervisors had to go
to another meeting and scheduled another one with me for the next day
(guess when? Right, 9am). Went to the main Engineering site, and got an
access card and signed up for an account.
