I arrived in Uppsala, Sweden last week and began my orientation program at the University of Uppsala immediately. So far I have taken my first class on Swedish history and signed up for my nation (a social club of sorts), which is Kalmar Nation. Tomorrow night at Kalmar there is going to be a concert by the Tupelo Honeys which I am excited about. The architecture and culture of Sweden's one time capital is stunning and must been seen to be appreciated (pictures to come).
Unfortunately, I haven't had internet in my room for the past week so I haven't had much access to internet leaks or been able to post. I did rediscover Blitzen Trapper's "Wild Mountain Nation" which I completely forgot about. I also picked up Cat Power's "Jukebox" covers album, but found it to be a bland, samey compilation of uninteresting tracks, though her voice gets more beautiful with each album.
I hope everyone has a good weekend and I will be back soon.
