Hey everyone!
So I've finally had my first full week of school and am some what developing a routine. The school days are non stop from 6 in the morning to 6 in the evening, so i'm pretty tired majority of the day, but it's fun and I am enjoying all the new experiences I am having.
There are a couple of questions people have been asking me about my time over here, so i thought i might as well answer them in a blog because i'm sure some others would be thinking the same questions.
Q. What's the food like?
A. It varies, alot. We get three meals a day. Breakfast normally consists of toast, tea and another dish that changes every morning (normally egg related) Lunch is pretty much dinner in the middle of the day. There are your standard rice and Dahl, but there's normally some sort of westernish dish, like the other day there was pizza and ice cream. Dinner is same as lunch essentially. Overall the food is pretty good, it's not amazing, but I haven't been food poisoned yet so that's good.
Q. What's been your biggest challenge?
A. I haven't had one 'Big' challenge, it's more just a collection of small challenges. Things like understanding accents, branching out to meet new people and keeping organised are thing I have to face daily, but actually i haven't had too much challenge at all. This school really is so warm and welcoming and i always have people asking how I am going.
Q. What's been the best moment or highlight?
A. I have really enjoyed the friendships I have made so far, i also have enjoy looking at the scenery and thinking how lucky i am to have this experience.
Q. Everyday things I miss most about home?
A. My guitar, my dogs, friends and family. I believe i'm coping pretty well with all the homesickness, there's the occasional moment of sadness when i think of friends and stuff and i know that's natural but to quote Barney Stinson "When i get sad, i stop being sad and be awesome instead... true story"
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me.
I went on a hike last saturday and the sceans were beautiful. it was a begginer hike just around the school area, but still the views were great. It was about 6 hours long
