1. Woke up before my alarm clock went off, even though I was looking forward to sleeping in
2. Had bread and cheese and yogurt for breakfast, on my fishy plate.
3. Checked my email
4. Began reading my very boring, redundant, pile-of-crap English textbook in the sun on Tabaret Lawn
5. When to a Campus for Christ BBQ
6. Decided I'm going to go Dog Sledding/Snow Shoeing with Amber
7. Did a "diagnostic writing test" in English, which probably didn't go so well. It's not for marks though, thankfully.
8. Had my first french class - and it went WAY better than Spanish. My prof went to each of us (there's less than 30 in the class) and had a brief conversation in french for the whole class to hear. (What we're studying, where we're from) He could tell I was nervous about speaking though, he actually told me to chill out. The good news is, I understood just about every word he said, and it seems like it's at the right level for me. We'll be "learning" most of the stuff I did in French 12, so hopefully it wont be too hard, and I can just focus on my speaking ability (and confidence level!)
9. Worked on the painting that I had my friends help with! It's almost ready for the wall.
10. Bought a laundry card
11. Put something in the mail for someone!
12. Had lemon-oregano chicken and rice from the caf for dinner
13. Wrote this blog
I'm feeling unorganized right now, there's just so much going on and I haven't figured out how to approach all of the things I need to do, or how to keep track of all of them. I cant wait to be a little more settled in to this life! And, I can't wait to be healthy again. That's right, I've been here a week, and I'm already sick. UG!
if you ever need a laugh, justpicture me in your Uni french class, trying to explain to the prof about "le oeuf et un autre oeuf.. faire... un baby!" but with big gestures.
