Class Day One

Today was the first day of classes. I have an 8 am class, a 9:25 lecture and a 1355 class. Each class is an hour an 15 minutes long but they seemed to go by quickly today. But getting up at 8am is not fun...especially since we are loosing an hour almost every night. It strange that I have a quiz on Thursday and a paper due soon too because the "semester" just started. I will have to adjust quickly to the fast pace classes and to having classes on Saturdays and Sundays. I finished my homework for the night, but I might read a little more so I can get ahead.

Tonight they had fudge brownies for dessert at dinner and it hit the spot! It needed a little ice cream but I can wait for gelato. I also attended a lecture about the do's and don'ts of Spanish food tonight. It was very informative and I know now what foods to avoid including Bull Testicles, eel and barnacles (which look like fingers). But I plan on branching out and trying more seafood, for example tonight at dinner I ate a small piece of fish. Mom be proud!

I have been able to eat meals on the aft of the ship or the deck. It is BEAUTIFUL. Nothing but deep blue ocean in sight. Meredith and I found a nice quiet deck on the port side of the ship. I don't think anyone else goes out there because its not sunny but its perfect for reading and had a beautiful sunset yesterday.

But its late night snack time and then bed for me. We lose another hour tonight :(
