First night...

I LOVE IT here. At first I was down to live with a woman who wasn't actually aware that somebody was meant to be coming to live with her. First obstacle. Then I saw that she had a horribly enormous ginger feline. Having put down on my form that animals cause my entire head to explode, I didn't really fancy staying there. So I swapped with Iwona and have ended up in a gorgeous apartment with a couple and their 20 year old daughter Lida, 5 minutes away from the Hermitage!! They are apparently planning on purchasing a cat creature in the near future... I'm sure I'll be able to persuade them otherwise with my drunken charm tomorrow night when Lida's taking me out on the town hooray.

Am missing everyone horribly but am really excited about the next year. It's really cool having another young'un to live with and bring me out (she also studies at the State Uni so we can go in together). She also speaks English which is good and bad but I am here to rant away in Rus so I'm sure I won't take advantage of her bilingualness too much.

Meeting Will on the Nevskii Prospekt at half 10 tomorrow. Exploring a plenty will be done!!
