Checking in!

Hey all! Hope your summer's are great!  I don't have much exciting stuff to say at the moment, mainly just checking in.  I test drove a car last night, so finally drove on the opposite side of the road.  It wasn't too bad except I hit the windshield wipers on instead of the blinker every time.  I don't think the lady is going to take our offer for her car though. Class is going good.  All of them seem decent, but final exams are worth at least 50% of my grade in each class.  I've made one friend in one of my classes, but in 2 of them, we do small group projects,  so I'll definitely get to meet people! It's odd though that people here don't wear backpacks, don't text and walk, don't listen to Ipods while walking to class and professors say "over in North America..." but I'm getting used to it! Otherwise, I'm bummed I'll miss all the stuff at home, but I think I'm headed to the beach for some climbing and surfing this weekend!  Working on planning more trips...
