Interesting New Friends

Ok so last night I was practically forced out of my room by one of the guys next door. And of course I was in my ginormous Power Rangers T-Shirt and old sweatpants..so obviously looking my best. I went next door where I met two of his roommates. I can't pronounce the first guys' name so I'll just say he's from Sweden. Ryan is from Scotland (he is determined to make me eat haggis, chicken stuffed with haggis, a traditional English breakfast, and fish and chips) and then there's a guy from France (I can't spell his name either). They pretty much quizzed me about what American movies I had seen and what music I had listened to. Apparently Anchorman is a big deal. Also, certain herbs (not weed) but similar are not illegal here. So let's just say that everyone but me was very mellow. Either way, nice guys. So today I actually made it to the grocery store all by myself AND no one told me how to get there! Amazing right? I've at least got enough Diet Coke to last me a week and some cereal and such so I don't starve. I'll get real food later. Oh the only girls that are here in my flat right now are Gemma and Eve (I haven't met Eve yet. Apparently she's out a lot). The other two girls get here next week. Class doesn't start til the 9th. I finally have pictures up on facebook! oh yeah and my address is:
