I think I'm undercaffienated.

Things I Accomplished Before 12:30 pm Today:
- Set up my EFT for future stipend payments
- Got my student ID card
- Got my department keycard privileges
- Picked up my stipend check
- Opened a local checking account
- Got a library card

And then I went to the grocery store and came back and made lunch, which resulted in me burning my hand with frying oil, but you can't have everything.

I got a bike and have been biking around, and it's insanely beautiful here--you can see the Bay from a lot of the streets, particularly the eastern/uphill ones. It's weird to me having to lock my bike to a fare-thee-well, with a cable lock and a Kryptonite and everything, but apparently that is the reality. I love my bike! It is a blue hybrid with a step-through frame and it's awesome, though I need to get at least one pannier to go on the rack.

I still have to email my advisor(s) to see if they will be around this week--I have yet to meet either of them in person. It would be nice to be able to pick them out of a crowd, IJS. I also need to finish the book I'm reading, finish some translation projects, and do some OTW stuff before lian comes after me with wrath.

You have had such a busy week. But it all sounds very interesting. Student ID cards!

Sounds like things are pretty interesting.
