 Another successful week at school have 3 exams this week so didn't get into anything to crazy over the weekend just mostly studying and practicing my upcoming speech. Did have a little outside barbeque last night with some friends but it wasn't quite as good as the southern bbq in SC. Can't wait to come to SC for some good ole bbq.  

 Week two officially in the books and I learned I have to act in a play this semester, that alone makes me want to drop out of school but I think I'll survive one performance. My classes this semester do kinda suck, not that they're going to be super hard just they're all bs classes that I have no interest in so that could make for a long semester.

 Well, another first week in the books. Crazy to think that almost half my college career is over already. It was a good first week though me and my roommate and a few friends went to Universal Studio, and Disney Springs. It was just a day trip but still it pretty nice to go back to Disney after quite a while of not being there. We also got a dart board for out dorm room which looking back may have been a bad idea because we already have about 20 holes in the wall but oh well. 

 Well this is it the last week, my favorite week. Not for the exams, but in 3 days I get to go home. Loved meeting all the people here and everything but nothing beats the people at home. Just 3 more exams to get through then its good ole Pennsylvania time. 

 Not a lot to report since we've had the last week off school. However, did get to have a thanksgiving dinner with all my friends, which was cool since it was their first thanksgiving. It wasn't your typical thanksgiving however since everyone made a dish from their home country the food selection was a little different. Overll though it was a fun experience and I think the Europeans enjoyed it.

 I apologize for not posting the last few a bunch of my European friends wanted to go to Chicago so last week we took a trip out to the windy city. Overall, the trip was amazing, however the Europeans didn't like the weather nearly as much as they like Maimi weather. The sights and sounds of Chicago were amazing though, and overall, I think everyone enjoyed the trip and its always fun going places with them just to see their reaction to American culture.

 It was a pretty low-key week to be honest. My roommates' parents came from England, so I got to meet them, which was nice, they're super nice people and they even invited me out to eat with them, so that was nice. But other than that pretty much just been hanging at the pool and grinding through schoolwork.
