Dolly talk about first Pittsburgh weekend.

Learned that a liter of beer is slightly larger than a pint at Hofbräuhaus.

Vegan Pierogi and Korean BBQ backyard buffet.  Good for people watching and eats.  Learned that Straubs Larger taste pretty similar to PBR.  

Met Joy's boy and some of his nice gentlemen friends.  

Lou's Little Corner Bar could easily become my favorite place.  I can walk there from my house and Yuengling on tap for $2. 

I've found both Founders and Bell's beer here in Pittsburgh. 

Carson Street has a ton of bars, most of them sports bars, mostly the same.  Dense with Steelers fans, tourist, and undergrads. Some interesting people watching.

Today I had my grad school orientation, much less informative and useful than I could ever ever have imagines.  The occupational therapy program starts tomorrow.

Today also was a Vietnamese day.

Went for Vietnamese brunch aka Sunday's Best Brunch at 720 Records.  Followed by a personal walking tour of Lawrenceville, the hipster neighborhood.  Events worth repeating.

Additionally, Chatham is studying Vietnamese culture for the year.  So the University had Vietnamese food catered for dinner.  

All things well.

Pittsburgh I have arrived!

The pt Cruiser was unpacked 500 x faster than it took to pack that's to Mark & Marchen + Joy --roomie!

The parents arrived downtown via the MegaBus.

A sampling of things accomplished.  Finger printing. Parking permit. Ordered a mattress to sleep on.  Hung curtains. Bought dinning chairs.

Other Highlights.... 

Pittsburgh Historic Neighborhood TrolleyTour, was actually really fun and fabulously touristy. 

Ate at Primanti Brothers.  Double egg and cheese. Not amazing tasting, but the french fries themselves were tasty.  Similar to the homemade fries that Hellenic Coney Island puts out.  HUGE sandwich.  Would prefer it on whole wheat bread with fries on the side. But that's not the point.  I know. 

Ate at Over the bar Bicycle Cafe.  Yummy!  Will return again.

Went to my first J'burgh event.

Today the parents departed for Detroit.

I walked around main campus.  Got a student ID.  Free bus rides throughout the city using my ID!  Currently enjoying the A/C and Internet at the Library.

Later tonight going to see The Help with some ladies from J'burgh and Carol --roomie.
