First day of class

My teacher doesn't speak English. This is going to be a long semester. In addition to not speaking English my class is made up of people from Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia and Mexico so we cant really help each other since we don't speak the same language. Argh!

Just had some crackers this morning before my class and went with Jennifer over to Century 21, not the movie theater, to get some chicken sandwiches. In a land of cheap food, this meal doesn't really belong. Mediocre food, higher prices and didn't offer the student discount even though it is located on campus. On a high not though they have a chant they all sing together like at Johnny Rockets when you play Chicago on their juke boxes.

Went back to class and did some listening exercises and got homework out of the way. Started at 8am and left after 7 hours. Long first day.

Met up with some of the people Jen went to school with last summer and ate Din Tai Fung, the steamed dumpling place. Luckily we weren't stuffed to the brim this time so we were able to eat our fill of the tasty treats. Hurray!! Like I said before, you should find this place and eat there. It is that good.

Made it home with just enough time to do all my memorization and go to sleep. Have a test tomorrow morning.
