Work work work

Today was really busy but productive. I had class from 9:00 am-noon, and then I did homework until my next class at 4:00 pm. This was our Study Abroad class, one that everyone is in. We took a "Cultural Relevance" survey that rated us on how well we can adapt to other cultures. Sarah and I scored pretty high on it (adventurous, open-minded, etc.), but Jennifer and Courtney were total opposites of us! We knew it would be that way :).

After dinner, I walked over to House 9 and there was a group of people watching a soccer game on TV. I was mesmerized...this was the first time I had watched TV since leaving the U.S! Our house doesn't have a TV (and I don't have that much free time), so I've never found time to watch it. Everyone was laughing at me because I kept commenting on how bright and colorful it was, and how the people on the screen were moving so fast! Haha

The game ended (Ireland beat England), and Sarah and I went up to Kelly and Lara's room....We stayed there talking and looking at pictures until midnight.
