Meh, welcome to 10 years ago. Theres no real need to look up times on the interweb for when you will be able to see it. Usually on clear evenings in autumn just after sunset..just before the stars are visible while the sky is navy theres a MASSIVE bright light, far brighter than anything else in the sky (apart from the sun and moon 
) Behold the ISS.
I'm sure everyone on the planet has noticed it by now..nearly 10 years later.. whats really cool is getting a telescope or pair of binoculars and having a look. Altho at times is very difficult to track and keep the telescope on it as the ISS is moving so fast, so it takes a bit of practice.

That pic was taken via a shit telescope, kind of one that costs around 150 dollah in a shop, well worth a look, with a decent telescope you can see when someone walks across a porthole window on the ISS.
