Sorry it took my so long to write a new blog... i've actually been quite busy latelty. this english class just require quite a lot of time...for like every meeting (three times a week) we have to read an essay and write an one-page response. but that's like the only class that is not toooo much fun.
allright, you might be interested how a typical college-day looks like for me....
on a regular monday, wednesday or friday i get up at like 10, since my first class consumer behavior starts at 11. sometimes (if i really get up at 10) i have some cereals, if not, i have lunch with Wolfgang right after our common marketing class. Having lunch takes place in either the food court (some private little fast food restaurants - for example a subway-like place) or in the cafeteria (mensa). the cafeteria offers a (all-u-can eat) buffet for about 6 dollars (drinks included)... but it's mensa food as its best if you know what i mean.
After lunch I usually have a final look - or eventually begin - with the latest english assignment that is due like 30 minutes later.
after english, i'm basically off for the day, except on wednesday, when wolfgang and i tutor jason. he's gonna study in Bamberg next spring, so we prepare him for his journey. he gets some credit - we get paid. good deal.
Tuesday is the day with the most time spend in class for me. but i get to sleep in, since psychology doesn't start earlier than 12:30. So I usually have lunch right before that class...a fun class with a teacher that flies to florida every weekend to work with dolphins...poor little old guy has some problems though hearing the people sitting in the backrows...but he's just cute!
Dienstag abends steht dann die Principles of Marketing evening class an. Since we just meet once a week. Our session should last till like 9. but usually we're finished with the schedule earlier.
Thursdays are just 80 minutes of (psychology) class for me...
Yeah... i'm not really often IN class - but trust me, there's a lot of stuff to do... I spend quite some time preparing for my first exams in my marketing classes which already make up for like 20 % of the final grade... by the way... when we had our exam in consumer behavior on monday (for sure only multiple-chocie or true/false!), our teacher left the room for half of the time. but americans really just DON'T CHEAT at all! two students didn't take their tests on monday but today before class - they got to correct their tests themselves...i got 42 out of the 45 multiple choice questions right...
last week we went bowling,
went to a casino north of st. joe where wolfgang had a little winning going on (cindy&me didn't do good at all!)
...playing goalie came with costs... a messed up left ringfinger...
danke indutop du machst alles wieder gut...es ist schon bezeichnet, wenn man z.b. beim frisoer entsetzt gefragt wird : " SO WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE MISSOURI WESTERN FOR STUDYING ABROAD"... they somehow seem to know that there isn't a lot going on in good old st. joe... eieiei...
I finally got my social security number. so i'm ready to legally work on campus (which is basically tutoring jason). I'm gonna try to rent a car tomorrow in the afternoon/night. so i can give myself a right to soccer practice, go "walmart"-shopping, get some cold stone ice cream (JUST AMAZING!)... and on friday afternoon, i'm gonna take off to Lawrence to see Jeff!!!
I'm so excited to see him (and of course finally get to meet Brit, his girlfriend!)...
But for now I better go to bed... since i don't have early classes... i can stay up longer ;)
have fun whereever you are - those in schwabmuenchen, trinkt ne mass fuer mich mit aufm michaelimarkt...
