Today is the first day of classes and I wake up at 7:56 and my first class is at 8, so needless to say I was stressed out of my mind knowing that I was late to my first class at semester at sea. I fervently ran into the bathroom brushed my teeth and put deodorant on and manage to find some clean clothes and boot scoot and boogied to class. I have to say that my Advertisement teacher is sooo awesome and seems super sweet, her name is Peggy and she wears glitter and her energy just always feels like it is at such a high level. Later everyone has to go to Global Studies and we learned about some terms like disclosure and some famous philosophers, such as the Amartya Sen guy. And litteraly ten minutes after that I have another class sustainable cities with Rocky. Currently I believe that I took all the right classes to fit my schedule. After my grueling 3 classes in a row it is Lunch time where I got to sit with several wonderful people and have some good discussions with Carol the Student Affairs lady, Molly a student in my sustainable cities course who is from Tenessee, and the Dean of Students who is very intelligent. I made a joke to him when I said all the people with the sea sickness bracelets on looked like Avril Lavinge fans I do not think he quite knew who she was. Then I had to go and get my key fixed because it was not working, bummer I know but they fixed it immediately. Ohh and the coolest thing, today I saw two dolphins, boo yah sea life is cool. Also we had our first meeting for the Voyage Book which I made it to be a photographer.

So today my roommate had bought an alarm clock which totally is awesome because I woke up late last night. But not today, today I woke up at 7:15, got a nice hot shower, shaved, and was looking pretty fresh. Anyway, 3 classes right after one another is pretty brutal and our Global Studies class is pretty interesting but is rather tough material. And lunch today consisted of pasta and bread and some other stuff, I have been eating rather healthy and I am rather impressed with myself; it usually consist of a salad, meat, and a pasta. What can I say I guess S@S makes you healthy. Today we had a group meeting for my advertisement class and I was a genius and got a good group and divided the readings up so then we all dont have to actually do every reading. Today was pretty stormy and we hit some rough waters and we weren't aloud outside. But now it is progressively getting calmer. We still have 5 days till we are in Cadiz, Spain. I am counting down the days plus then I wont have class, but this weekend we are going to have classes. Just sat in a lecture too of this girl who used to live in Barcelona and she gave some good tips and sights to see. But yeah I am sorry I dont have any crazy new stories but I am really trying to be a good academic child and stay on top of my readings and my classes, hope your all having a great day and I will ttyl.
