It's been quite a week. First, I have finally seen some American organised sports. American Football live has to be the hardest thing to follow: I had no idea where they were running to, and you've got about 35-40 players running on just 100 yards of field. The marching band came on and did their thing, you can walk around and buy all manner of fast food items should you so desire. Worst of it all, it was confusing, AND we lost. To put the icing on the cake, the floodlights failed about a minute from the end of the match! I did go to watch the real football (or 'soccer') team play, and they were much much better. But as I have found out, they also lost 2-1 in extra time, which I didn't hang about to watch because *ham roll please* I went and played football myself! The exercise did me good and I even scored a goal, so everything is OK!
I've made quite a few new friends which is good, most of them are international students so it is nice to talk about the same experiences and stuff that we all share, like being away from home and finding your way around a new place. It also gives me some things to do so that my mind is not on home all the time. I am still missing home though lots and lots, but I'll keep on updating you guys on American experiences!
