Now that school has commenced, I have been very busy. How busy? Well, take a journey with me through my day. I have class from 8:30-1 p.m. After class, I take a one hour lunch break. At 2, I review what I learned in class. At 2:30, I take my questions to Lama, my Syrian tutor. I stay with Lama until all my questions have been answered. This can be as early as 3 or as late as 5.

As we were leaving, the fog was beginning to roll in, so I had to hurry home! Fog is scary.
