I made it thru the week one !

Just a quick update.
The first week has gone by faast. Feels like I just got here and on the other hand feels like it's been forever. It's been nice to have the whole week off. I was told earlier that I need to be here by 20th to attend to the orientation week and when I got here I was told that the only orientation stuff I'm having as a transfer student is this few hour thingy on Friday 26th (Note to myself: do not ever go out the night before some important stuff such as orientation. There's a chance that you still might be drunk in the morning..). No matter of the condition this morning the orientation was pretty helpful plus we got awesome t-shirts !
I also got all set up with my classes for the semester and for the first time in years I could not be more excited about them to start. The one thing I wasn't so pleased about was I need to take one extra language because of my major. I need to pick either Spanish, French or German. Obviously I'm going with German 'cos I've studied that before and obviously I'm not telling that to anybody so I can start with the most basic level. It's going to be awesome to lear how they teach foreign languages in the US. The only thing is, the class is currently full so I need to wait and see if there's going to be any room. But anyways, these classes I'm having at least:

• Introduction to Rhetorics
• Literature Across Borders
• Communicating Across Cultures
• Perspectives Coaching

Like I said, can't wait (:

Well it's 3.17am here so I'm off to bed. Just wanted to share the latest details.

Love,
Riina




Ps. It is weird right when a guy wants you to give him your skinny pants that he could wear, waits you till your class is done, follows you back to where you live, tries the pants on like right in the front of you and then gets disappointed when you don't give him your pants (that you are wearing at the time) ? I'm just wondering...
