Ok. GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY!! I FOUND AN APARTMENT! whew....what a freaking relief. Try finding an apartment in a city where you know one word (kersenum=thanks!), and not one soul. Thats a little bit of a challenge, almost impossible you might think...well then I HAVE ACHIEVED THE IMPOSSIBLE!!
Yesterday was our first day on CEU's campus, full of orientations and bustling people all over the place speaking in languages I have never even heard of before. You could feel the start of the new school year in the air. Nerves were flowing as usual. It feels like they are on 24/7 right now, but I have learned to shove those in a closet lately. Anyways, we start classes in two weeks but start previewing classes next week. I am looking forward to seeing what they have to offer. They say to get in all your fun now while you can because once these two weeks are up, your life will be consumed by the program. EEEEEK!! But I have a feeling I will be able to slip in some fun and turn off the study switch. As you've probably already noticed, it's not that hard for me.
Already I have met many interesting people. For instance I am listening in on this conversation right now between a group of guys, one being a REALLY annoying American. and by REALLY i mean you want to cut off your own ears because he is shooting out facts about the world and where he has been and how he is now because of his awesome life so far..BARFFFFF...and then there are those who tell stories of how their families (alot of people in the school are married and have kids) and their lives have been disrupted by war and cultural boundaries and religion and the list goes on. I am in awe. My life cannot compare. I have seen nothing compared to them. And the best part is how simple they speak about how they want their lives to be in the future and who they want to be. They won't go back and leech off parents and play video games, fingers covered in cheetohs late into their 20's. I feel like I am a small toddler learning to speak while they have already lived FULL lifetimes, yet we are the same age.

Keep that study switch in the "on" mode as much as you can but always have the "learning" switch on.
