boys 2

Today was the big registration day....but although that sounds exciting, it wasnt. I waited in a few lines only to have trouble paying my registration fee with my bank card. I guess the poor card paniced at the idea of having to pay so much money in one shot. So they have given me a temporary registration pass to carry around while i wait for the bank to sort things out. At least i can take books out of the library!
So after having failed to register completely, i met gabor. It is funny that the one guy i know in my faculty here happens to be from budapest as well. So we reministed quite a bit about the good old days in kontler’s class, and who said/ wrote what.....we went to a cheap indian restaurant late in the afternoon, both operating on the poor student idea that it is best to eat a lot once in the day and then go without dinner. The indian place had pretty ok food and it was cheap by london standards and so we were happy until i converted the price into forints and realised that we had spent 4350 forints each on a bloody student dinner that didnt include drinks or dessert. For that price you could have an excellent meal at vörös és féher or àbszint in buda. For just little more you could have a fucking Sunday feast at gundel!! Where did it all go wrong? Afterwards we took a spin around the university buildings just to see what there was. Then like the two streberi that i guess we are, we ended up wandering about in the library. I was impressed by the selection though....
