Today is day 1 in Providence, and I'm loving it. The weather is gorgeous, sunny-warm in the day and cool in the night. The streets are pretty and clean with quaint little houses here and there, and lots of red brick. I live in a really nice dorm at 15West, right on top of RISD's amazing Library.
Checked in this morning and realised I should have brought a pillow and some sheets so I went down to bed bath and beyond and bought some. In the evening went out with flatmate Terry and his friend Donica to go see the waterfire.
What's waterfire? Water, and fire. Doh. It's a hundred fires on the water, which sounds pretty lame but looks pretty cool. That and the carnival atmosphere made for a great first day in Providence.
And now I'm in Donica's room leaching of somebody's internet. It's like a little lanshop here.
Can't wait for school on monday!
