First Week Done!

I've finished my first week of school!  I think that compared to my workload at Siena I will definitely have less homework, but some classes appear as though they could be particularly difficult (particularly finance).  One thing that is interesting is that out of my five different professors, almost all come from a different countries; I have one from France, one from Australia, one from Great Britain, and two from the United States.

We had to make a trip this week to purchase books at a bookstore in Bellecour.  I can say that I officially know how to take the metro and get there successfully on my own!

Today, I learned how to do laundry and washed some clothes for the first time.  However, what I didn't realize (because I neglected to read the sign!) was that the dryers do not work after 21:30 (which I believe is 9:30 pm).  Because of this I have wet clothes hanging all over my apartment!  You can bet that I will not make that mistake again.

This weekend I will be going away on a school trip with my school, and I will hopefully be making a post on Monday or Tuesday with some photos from the trip!  We are going to a city near the Alps and I am excited because it will be my first time seeing them.  Hopefully the weather is nice and I meet many other students!

Talk to you soon!  Until then, Beverly
