Vancouver: Week 2

As with Sydney University, UBC starts for real in second week. I've settled on my courses (3xPoliSci, 1xHistory) and I'm loving it!

My timetable is as follows:
Monday
6:30-8:30pm: HIST402 - Violence & Trauma in the late 20th Century.

Tuesday
(& Thurs) 11-12:30pm: POLI321A - Chinese Government & Politics
(& Thurs) 3:30-5pm: POLI370A - International Law & Politics of Military Force
7-10pm: POLI365A - Asian International Relations

This timetable leaves me with Wednesday and Friday free, and Monday essentially free, which is fantastic.

I've also got the readings lists for my subjects. HIST402 goes through about 200 pages a week! (eek!), but the others are a much more normal 30-50 pages a week. That I can deal with!

Almost every night this week we went out as a big exchange group:

• Monday: The Gallery - our new second home! (partly because Koerners was completely full)
  
• Tuesday: Exchange Student night at Koerners.
  
• Wednesday: Abi's 21st at an awesome wine bar in Yaletown called Bar None.
  
• Thursday: Salsa classes (finally!) & seeing Snakes On A Plane downtown - best Z-grade film EVER!
  

Still no assignments yet ... thank goodness!
