Beachhhhhh.

Heyooo.

I found my camera cable. Heh. It was in my camera bag. Ironic isn't it? So now, after the one my mom mailed to me gets here, I'll have two. Yesssss.

Anyways, today I got my phone, finally! It's a lot different from American cell phones, so it's taken some getting used to. Still working on that. I also went to campus today and got my student ID card, and figured out some class stuff. I think I'll try to register tomorrow. Incidentally, the mosquitos on campus are UNBELIEVABLE. Really ridiculous. They swarm. NOT kidding. Who builds a Uni on a swamp?!?! Honestly?! I will most definitely be investing in bug spray. Hardcore. But I was traveling around there with a bunch of kids from Iowa State, so it was nice to have some Americans around. Got my picture taken for my ID after I had sweated out what seemed like my whole body weight. Sorry for being gross, but it's that hot here. And the train was really easy to take, which is nice.

After we got back, we went to the grocery store (still no luck on the fan) and then we went to the beach. (YAY) It was awesome. By the time we got there it was late afternoon-evening, and the waves were huge, so we went body surfing in them. They can take you out I tell ya, but once you get out to a certain point it's just really nice to float in the swells. I'm going again tomorrow morning to watch the surfers. :) Anyways, it's only 10:15, and I'm exhausted, again. I went to bed at 10:10 PM last night... haha! This time it's allowed though because I was in the ocean for awhile. I talked to an Aussie today and she told me where to get a fan, so I'm going to try tomorrow. I'm sooo so determined. Today was better temperature-wise, but still bad.

Plus I itch like crazy from those darn bugs. Hate 'em.

Anyways, I think it's bedtime!!

  2. Girl, I just had to comment....my school is built on a swamp too, so I feel ya with the mosquitoes. One of the first things my roommate did when we got back down to Galveston was totally smash a blood-filled mosquito on our wall. Anywho...sounds like things are getting better and better everyday! :)
