Next week I will finish up at Aberdeen College, having been a student there for three years.  The other day in a moment of boredom I took a trip up to the 7th floor to see what I could see.

Why hadn’t I done this before? From there you can see quite a bit of Aberdeen. Had I taken the time, and with a proper camera at the right time of day I think quite a nice shot could be taken from all the way up there.  With week left, it is unlikely I will get that shot, so instead you’ll have to do with these quick snaps taken on my mobile phone.

Well… this is weird! For the first 19 years of my life I have lived in Shetland, until yesterday! I’m now officially a student. I have to do my own washing (not attempted yet) and I have to cook my own food (so far I’ve made some Supernoodles).

I’ve also managed to lose my door card/key fob thing twice… both times in my room!

It’s not exactly how I imagined the student life… so far my flat mate(s) haven’t moved in, and anyone else from Shetland I know coming to Aberdeen are still in Shetland (except for Martin). So all in all it’s incredibly quiet!

I did something today I haven’t done in a long time…. I bought some pens and pencils. I haven’t used a pen properly since I left school, and even then some may argue I didn’t use it properly. It will be weird writing!

I would love to write a longer blog but there’s not much to write about!

Got an induction day tomorrow at the college, so I shall have a clearer picture then!
