Today was the first day of classes. I awoke to an email from my mother saying, "It's a school night." So she continues the streak. Class went well, quite a long day but the classes seem good. Mostly review. Many of the young kids were fairly lost when we went over organic chemistry because in the states chemistry is strictly taught inorganically in high school.
It was very interesting having instructors teach these subjects in their second language. I commend them! There are a lot of ehhh or ummms as they think of what to say but that is very impressive nonetheless. One thing I noticed today was the size of the paper. All the handouts we received were larger than 8.5 x 11in. It was more like 9.5 x 12.
I was going to get one of these cooked half or full chickens from the P and P store. It is Pawel i Pietor, or P and P for short, but the did not have any. Looks like I'll have to go next door and get more pasta with meat sauce. I did get one of the elusive books and an upper classmate will let me borrow her other two. Time to eat and relax before another long day tomorrow.
