My first days in Brighton

My dinner today.
(Burned my hand while making this!)

My first days in Brighton have been busy, so I haven´t had time to update my blog until now. There are a lot of people to get to know, and a lot of things to arrange such as registration, accounts, etc. I have been really lucky with my flatmates, so I spend a lot of time with them. They´re awesome! :D An other boy moved in today, and he seems just as nice as the rest in this flat. I also met someone who had heard about Ylvis (norwegian comedians) and their song "What does the fox say?". They said it had become the theme song of their apartment, so I got pretty exited because I´m norwegian as well! I had to show Ylvis´ songs (because they´re so awesome) to some of my flatmates, so I would say that I´m helping Ylvis (a little bit) to get popular in England. I also met some people from my course, but they are really hard to find because there´s about 340 students taking first year psychology. I had my induction to psychology on monday and my introduction to psychology subjects on wednesday. Today I had my firsts lectures and my first seminar. It was three different subjects and a lot to remember at the first day. But I have been looking forward to the lectures, and I think it was really fun. Luckily I was able to understand almost everything the lecturers said, and I didn´t feel that I was having any big problems with language just yet. I am sure it will be harder when we have to write essays, but as long as I keep practicing I´m pretty sure it will be ok.

The weather in Brighton is surprisingly similar to Norway and my hometown Stavanger. It almost feels like it´s raining so much to make me feel like home, cause there hasn´t been much sun since I arrived. A day earlier this week, when it wasn´t raining, I went to Brighton by myself to get some stuff for my room. I got on a bus and was really confused because the bus driver didn´t want to drive where I was going as he was busy. Luckily I met some international students who were going on a guided tour in Brighton, which was arranged by the university. I followed them and got to learn the city a bit better. Sadly I didn´t bring my camera (because I had to carry stuff home), so I didn´t get to take any pictures from the city. Next time I might pretend to be a photographer in the streets of Brighton and post some pictures on this blog!
