First Day of Classes




     Well today nothing exciting happened. It was the first day of classes. Corinne and I started off the morning with our first nursing lab. It only took about 20 minutes. We were introduced to our professor and told to wear our lab coats on lab days. She told us that scrubs were optional for now. I will definitely being wearing scrubs to class. I mean scrubs to class, need I say more? It's like wearing sweatpants to class, which is not culturally acceptable here. After lab, Corinne and I headed to the cafeteria. I got some coffee and then we went back outside to the courtyard. Here we just went through our syllabi and wrote down our exams. After that we headed to Pathophysiology. Patho was pretty boring. We actually did work today. We took notes for 2 hours straight. All of it was review, which was a good thing. After Patho it was time for lunch. We went to a great cafe. I got a ham, cheese, and egg sandwich. After we ate we went in search of school supplies. It was a success. We found a wonderful store full of binders and folders. Well, I was going to buy 4 binders, but there binders had 2 holes. That wouldn't work with all the dividers and paper I had brought from the U.S. After deciding on some folders we went to school and printed off all of our lectures. Then it was off to Spanish for nursing. This class was absolutely horrible. The professor ONLY spoke Spanish and some girls had never had spanish before. After a frustrating Spanish class, it was time to head home for dinner. We had pizza for dinner. La pizza estaba deliciosa.  That's it for today!
