the_dala at 06:15pm on 04/10/2007So today we separated into our programmes and met our fellow MA students and yada yada because - you guys -
One of my professors looks like Jack Davenport.1
I am not EVEN KIDDING. I thought he was a postgrad when he walked into the introductory lecture, and I sort of leered at him a little. Ten minutes later, I find out that he is not only one of the professors, but one of the maritime professors. Eventually I was able to look at him again. I imagine it'll get easier, but at first it was like staring directly into the sun, if sunspots were giggle fits.
::shakes head:: Okay. Shutting up over that now. I'm so excited about the programme and the people I'll be working with. There are a whopping thirty MA students this year, which I believe is a record. I chatted with a lot of people, but clicked in particular with a girl named Marissa, who's from Florida. Then a group of us walked back to Glen Eyre together, including a delicious Greek boy with a delicious Greek name that I cannot now remember. Oh, he is lovely. We're all meeting up at the uni pub in a bit.
I think my mind has been finally set at ease with regards to TAMU. Southampton is going to be amazing. Yay me!

doolabug, if you knew Fraser Sturt looked like the Davenport and didn't tell me, I will KILL you.
