When will it ever stop being so cold?!

Whoever let me think it was a good idea to live in a northern island country for 5 months was crazy! Fortunately the days are getting longer and so there's more sunlight, but last week was all snowy and rainy and disgusting.

Life has been pretty normal... I go to classes, do research, wander around the area and the rest of the city, etc. etc.

On Saturday my friend Matt Collins and I went to a gig - to see Girls. They were pretty good and it was a fun show... I hadn't realized just how long it had been since I'd been to a concert so that was quite fun.
Tomorrow I'm going to Edinburgh for the afternoon with one of my art history seminars. I actually haven't been able to make it over there yet so it should be fun.

And since I have nothing else exciting to report, I will leave you all with a few photos of Glasgow, stolen from Matt's facebook.

the Cloisters at Glasgow Uni

the back of the University... or the front, depending on which way you see it.
