Photo tour time! Long story short, I finally managed to get on-campus wireless internet, whooo! So now I can post some pictures! I don't have any pictures of my new friends yet, but here are some photos of campus and my dorm room! Captions above, photos below:
This is the "main quad" of UCL.
They call this "The Cruciform" because it is an "X" shaped building.
This isn't from campus, but it is next to my house! Haha whoops.
I'm in the main UCL building looking out a window at its Hogwarts-style exterior.
A tiny winding corridor typical of campus.
Neat.
An on-campus Church of England cathedral!
I found dad the chemistry building, but I can't go in yet until I have a student ID. : P
My dorm room! View towards the door / sink / etc. The plate, mug, fork, spoon, and knife that I found dumpster diving are sitting on the fridge waiting to be washed. Haha. I also found ten hangers, a working lamp, and a power cord. Dumpster diving is totally worth it.
The long view of my room! I'm thinking about rearranging things to put the desk nearer to the power outlets, but so far I've just unpacked and organized my stuff a little. I'm pretty happy that I didn't ask for the linen packet. I still need a duvet, but I should come out spending less than I would have on a plain white linen set from the university (unless duvets cost upwards of £25...?).
'Skers! Also, the lamp that I found in the trash!
This is the view out of my window! I requested the backyard and though I don't get a lot of sunlight, so far I like the backyard view quite a bit!
Well, that's about it for the photo tour so far! Tomorrow I attend the "Wellcome" ceremony stuff and meet with a professor to talk about what I'm registering for, so I'm sure to have some more news at that point. And hopefully a UCL ID card so I can actually go into buildings!
