Orientation Day

Today was my orientation day at MIIS. I got to the orientation early, got my orientation packet and got my ID card. I really felt like a real student there when I got my ID card. I had a general orientation and then a specific Arabic language orientation. Most of the people in the program are older than me, most are closer to graduate school age or a little older. I did make some friends today and that's good. I also had the computer orientation where we received our MIIS email and network information. I'm having a really hard time adjusting to the time change so the days feel really long! Like I mentioned in an earlier post, I got access to the internet tonight at the house I'm staying at. The weather here in Monterey is really nice. Sometimes it is a little cool but the sun is always shining so that makes it more bearable.Tomorrow is the first day of classes.
