First exploration...

Today I decided to finally stop resting and go out to wander around the Stony Brook campus.

My first destination was Stony Brook Union, trying to find the ATM. I approached from the east, so I only had to walk to the entrance. But I did not knew this. So I entered the building through the "top" floor. Classes have not started, so there are not many around. Still, the Union looked so scary! Even the insides. I wander and wander until finally I found the ATM.

Then I headed to the main quad. I found the bookstore, which was not that bad. My Mechanics book was in, but QM had not arrive. It really did not matter because I ordered the online. I continued on my way. The Student Activity Center seemed really nice so I went inside.

The Seawolves Marketplace was salvation! I bought frying pans, a fork-spoons-knife set, a bowl, two dishes, some other kitchen stuff and most importantly: a PILLOW! I am so happy! For the past two nights I have been sleeping without one, and it has not been that bad. But I felt lost and incomplete without a pillow. Not anymore!

I also learned about a bus that goes to the shopping mall, and got train tickets for my first Boston trip. Definitely I accomplished a lot. (A Cumrun Vafa sighting might have taken place, but I am not sure...)
