Actually, I’m already here. I nearly managed to let two years pass since my last entry. I don’t know why I even bother. Anyway, my pursuit of a bachelor’s degree led me to Bath. For the next five weeks I will perform acoustic model measurements at the local university under the wings of a well credited acoustician. We will see how that goes.
The trip Oldenburg – Bremen – Stansted – London – Bath was pleasantly uneventful (ignoring the delay of my flight and my alarm shooing me out of my snugly bed at 5 o’clock) and despite the rumors relating to the obscurity of London’s tubes, everything went smooth. Not considering the waiting periods for planes and trains, the trip was considerably faster than a travel to visit friends and family in the south of Germany.
For some reason I can’t recall why I always assumed that GB and Germany share the same timezone. Instead I gained an hour today. Surprise! Not a day goes by without learning something new.
Not freshly learned but painfully confirmed is my prejudice about student accommodations. It will have to do. It just will.. the fridges are not very trustworthy, there doesn’t seem to be a spare set of dishes, the overall impression is rather bleak. Well. I’m going out for something to eat and a beer.
There will probably be more updates on this. Maybe.
