#10 Technology and Tourism

Hey y'all! Writing this from my Blackberry. Sorry I haven't been able to blog or Facebook regularly but my tech has totally been on the fritz.

The first few days have been fantastic. I showed up here to find I have a whole room to myself. First day I met two awesome girls named Hom and Sonam who are amazing.

I've met all kinds of other girls here, too. Jessie, Hannah, and Lauren are in my Creative Writing class. Iris and Tara were on my team for the scavenger hunt. Everybody here is incredibly friendy.

My Creative Writing class almost feels more like a drama class. Our teacher, Ross Sutherland, is a live poet, so his emphasis is mostly on the storytelling part of writing. As a result we play storytelling and roleplay games. It feels like an improv class.

My Social Psychology class is full of debaters. Everybody loves to speak up, and today we got sidetracked onto about eight different tangents, which touched on everything from twins to global warming! Something tells me this class is going to be amazing!

I've been having so much fun its crazy. But I have been thinking of everybody back home, and I'm so thankful you're all praying for me.

God Bless,

Erienne

    Love, Mom

    P.S. Okay, maybe not everything, but at least the stuff your parents want to hear about!
