I haven't updated in some time. You don't have to worry. I'm doing fine. Yesterday I picked up my brand new blue 2008 Toyota Yaris, all paid for and insured. So now I have a car and a place to live. I got a good deal on the car and paid only $16,300 for it including all taxes.Today I bought a parking permit for the car, so now I can actually park on campus. I also finally got my student number and ID card, and my network ID, so now I can use my laptop anywhere on campus.
I have done other stuff this weekend. On Sunday I went on a short hike to "the dish", a radio-telescope here at Stanford and made some new friends from all over the world.
I was also told about a BBQ at the Jewish center here at Stanford on Monday night so I went there as well. Many nice people, very few Israelis there. After the BBQ party, they aired the first episode of season 2 of Heroes on a big screen, so I stayed to watch.
Next post I'll talk about the wonders of eBay.
ah, ebay. we love it too.

ReplyDelete"After selling a huge number of ten room tents, I had enough money to buy a brand new car. After buying the car I had enough money left to buy the car parking space at the University and received all other things and now I can use the laptop anywhere in the university. Due to having a car I visited many places at the weekend and made so many new friends.
