And the homework begins...

Hey guys!!  As Joey said, we started classes this week!!  It has been a little overwhelming because we are cramming our classes into a six week schedule so we are in class a lot of the day.  At the same time, it is still amazing because we are in SOUTH AFRICA!!!  Joey and I and some of our friends went and laid in some shade under a tree by the waterfall and did our homework outside today and that was really nice!!  We were able to exchange our money today at the mall and we got some KFC for lunch!! :)  The food here is decent, but we can already tell that we are going to get tired of it eventually.  Many of you know that I don't eat much meat and they serve a lot of that here so that has been a little hard.  And although the food is good, it just doesn't satisfy the craving for the food we are used to eating.  We have tea time twice a day which is always enjoyable because you know i love my sweets :)  We visited our first service site today.  We will be visiting four different service sites over the next six weeks and then once we are done with classes we each pick one that we would like to serve at and we serve there for the next four weeks!  Neither of us had classes today so we mostly worked on homework!  My Canon camera stopped working which was a bummer and I have been trying o figure that out, but no luck :(  Other than that, we are doing great and really enjoying our time here!!  We love and miss all of our family and friends back home!!
