First exam

Today I had my first psychology exam here in America!! The learning matter wasn't really difficult, but it was a challenge to know all the terms in English! I like my Psyc classes here, even if I am already familiar with some of the topics, it's interessting and they gave me some thought-provoking impulses.
Slowly but surely I get a everyday life: On Monday is my Yoga class - I really enjoy it. On Tuesday and Thursday my day starts with a morning run! It's so delightful to run through the morning wood, it's so peacful and quiet!
I don't really have plans for this weekend, but I'm sure that I will find something interessting to do! *g*

my first month

On Sunday I’m exactly one month in America!! My experiences so far?! Well, I am living in a dorm again, which is quite different to the live in my apartment in Graz. Now I have to share my bath and toilet with a bunch of other girls again – like in the good old Elisabeth-Dorm times in my first year of studying! But they are all really nice and very “clean”! *g*
My courses here are quite interesting. In contrast to the most courses in Austria, I have to do homework each day and the courses are not only once a week but up to three times! Oh, and one of the most important things, I had already the chance to learn some new, very funny, typical American games – like beer pong and flippy cup! *g*
