It has been raining heaps here since arrival, which is particularly odd since the rain usually passes within an hour. But it has been sticking for the duration of the day today and yesterday. I suppose it makes me feel like I am more at home since Michigan comes with its fair bit of rain.
Today marked the first day of classes. It's weird that all those people at home are almost to Spring Break and I am over here just starting my semester. The classes that I am taking here include: intercultural communication (so I can communicate in my new surroundings...), an anthropology introduction, and discovering archeology (so I can seek treasure). You might be wondering what my major is, well, let me just say that I am a very well rounded student.
These classes make a very awesome schedule; I only class Monday through Wednesday. I don't know what I will do with all of my free time on the weekends, but I'm sure I won't have a problem filling up my time.
Something that struck me today was how difficult it was to get back into the swing of school after 2 and half months off. Part of me loves the routine that it will bring to my life, but the other part of me has gotten extremely lax. I'm praying that my old drive for learning comes roaring back soon because it seems to have hopped on a plane back to the US.
Pictures soon to come. I finally bit the dust and bought a battery charger to recharge the batteries that I may or may not have zapped with Australian voltage....
Cheers!
