Biking Around Davis

We went to classes today (all bright and early, I woke up at 6:50), met our professors. They're all pretty awesome - two of them came to eat lunch with us. I think I'm probably going to do my project on nanotech, but I might do alternative fuel sources... Ah well, I think no matter what I pick, it'll be awesome. =] We also walked around the chem building, saw some X-ray crystallography machines and the computer room and stuff.

We went around campus too - we get one free game to bowl per day, so I should get around to that. There's so much to do here! They have like every sport imaginable, and a pretty awesome arcade, plus board games and activities set up pretty much every evening.

I went biking with Shiori and Ryan afterward too - I didn't fall except for once, and that's because I fell off the edge of the paved path. xD I feel like I'm going to be a lot better after I start biking to classes. So we went to downtown Davis - there's a lot of shops, like Chipotle, Border's, Ben&Jerry's, Pinkberry, Jamba Juice, Baskin Robbins...

Hopefully my ethernet works now; I'm still in the lab as of yet. I wouldn't care too much, since there's so much to do, but I have those stupid online classes, plus I need to write a research paper for COSMOS over the course of this month...

I'm already getting used to the schedule here (except waking up so early). But I feel like I've been going to the DC for forever, and it's a good thing they have good food too. =P They don't make us sleep at 10 either, which is nice. And they gave us a ton of stuff, which combined with food and board, probably makes up the fee for the program.

I'm having a pretty awesome time here, everyone's nice, and I'm keeping myself busy. It's lots of fun too; I'm glad I came!
