Well. as I write this I am lying in bed, probably one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in! It's quarter past two in the afternoon and before you say I am lazy I am looking at the time according to my laptop which has yet to adjust to USA time, it's so slow think it's time to upgrade to a mac... now to find someone to buy me a mac.
It's actually about quarter past 8 in the morning here and I have been awake for a couple of hours, I have bigger bags under my eyes than I ever thought possible and I am still not married, been here for two days now and I think the brochure has lied to me. These Christian year out programs are meant to supply you with a spouse on arrival, or so I have been led to believe.
The rootbeer I have been delighting in has so far been a highlight. I have discovered I actually hate the fast food here, I feel so richly blessed to feel this way. My host family are into their fruit and veg in a big way and I couldn't be happier, I may actually come back thinner as a result.
Last night we had a meet and greet cook out where I met the guys I am to spend the next 9-10 months with, it is going to be a really good year.
The transition from UK to USA has been seamless so far, except for the tiredness but hopefully I will get over this soon. Everyone here is really friendly and this has made a massive difference. The hardest thing is going to be realising I can't just pop home for the weekend, that and missing the band.
I have discovered a new American band called Weaver at the Loom, very tasty indeed. Also loving the new athlete album too, it;s incredible.
Bye for now, check out my puppies. Today's is a beaut.

ReplyDeleteGood to hear you're settling in well and that the bed's comfy. Always important, especially when you start the 8am classes!
I'm so jealous of the a&w...
I think you need to pass the type approval tests before they give you the wife, especially as you are very "Foriegn" - even for around here!
ReplyDeleteProud of you man- drink that root beer :)
