Its Been Awhile...

I've been busy...

my history class is... well history... last semester i met my best girl kayla in history so this semester is kind of a let down in class because...well shes not there. History will be my worst class i think. Its easy just boring.

Political Science so far is interesting. I havent been able to say much because i am sick and words dont really come out. The class is based St. Croix so we just watch on tv and talk into microphones. The class will bring about a lot of debates about politics. Its funny here because i am in the U.S. but these people arent really part of the U.S. We talked about how if the U.S sneezes the WHOLE Carriabien catches a cold. meaning when our goverment does something stupid the here in St Thomas gets the rath. Our prof left us with this... if a hurricane hits st thomas and whips out everything... people have nowhere to go because its an island. If it continues north and hits florida bad but the people had a place to run too who would the Goverment take care of first. A state or their Islands...? She said "THAT is Political Science" Its going to be an adventure.

English... Litature.... nothing special.

Choir. Cant sing :( no voice.

Philosophy... I get to go tonight! i am so so so excited. I bought the book yesterday and it looks like something right up my ally way.

Ok Monday night i was so tired i crashed. Its so hard to sleep in my room because the sun rises on my bed. its annoying waking up sweaty and hot.

ive been to the beach three times this week... working on that tan so everyone at home will be JeAlOus :)
Tuesday night we all went to a small hotel down the street... it is an outside bar and resturant. We had way better food than what we get here at school.
Last night we went to Hooters then Duffy's Love Shack. Good thing is we found a personal driver... for free! and he is actually the nicest guy we've met on this island. Its really hard to trust people here because i guess most of the local guys and white guys that live here see us college girls and think "fresh meat" then they try to get you drunk and take you home. well good thing about that is i am smart enough not to get drunk and do something like get in a random car with a complete stranger. a few of the girls here are like that and did end up getting hurt.

Today i dont have class until 4...and its choir so i probably will go and tell here i cant sing. i sound like a dying frog. its bad. Im going to study and read my Bible for a bit then eat some nasty food and study more. its school season. time to focus. I most likely wont go out tomorrow night or saturday night... its expensive and i want to watch the hills on MTV.com YA i am that stupid.

Thanks for keeping up with me :D

I love it here. you should come visit! its completely beautiful. Its a culture shock and will change your prospective quickly.

OH YA im learning about myself. Now that i dont have my parents next to me (love you mom and dad) I am starting to become more independent. (like that rap song all the guys sing about me) I talk to complete strangers because its the friendly thing to do. I am becoming more confident and i notice my self holding my head up and making the first move is solving problems. I've always been considered a leader but i never really felt like one until i stood up to the girls and told them no. I dont care what people think about me in a good way..im excited to learn more about me. I am sure with my Philosophy (critical thinking) class tonight i will learn a lot more. Everything in life is based off YOUR perspective on it and only YOU can change that perspective.

I am going to buy a camera here because i have some wicked sweet pictures in my head. Oh and i am going to start traveling... i hope. (i got to start working)

Okay my laptop is hot and so am i

Love and miss you all.

Cordelia :D
