I would like to preface this post by stating that I in fact AM adventurous when I travel and that I often do cool things like.. well, I'm blanking now, but [insert "cool things that one does when one is all alone in a city where one doesn't know anyone" here]. Now, keep that image of me doing those cool things in your mind, while you read on..

I just feel so at ease in the cinema. And that was my saving grace on Wednesday when I went to Umeå to take part in some introductory shenanigans at the university. I felt uneasy, tired and hungry the entire day but when I finally got to make myself comfortable in one of those red familiar chairs, I immediately relaxed. Unclenched my jaw. Almost fell asleep. Those 12 years I spent working at (and watching close to every movie we showed) our local movie theater must have conditioned me like one of Pavlov's dogs! Not that I'm complaining..
