Class...

Well, classes began yesterday! Things are going well. Our Ghanaian professors are good, our classes will be interesting, and things shouldn't be too difficult. If anything, it will be difficult for me to get into a homework routine again after not doing that for the past 8 months! I don't think we'll have too much though. Today we will have our first African dance class - probably the one I am most afraid of :) We will also have our second Twi language class, which I am excited to begin using. I feel as though I am ripped off in the markets here sometimes, and I am told if I speak Twi to the vendors they like it and will give you a better deal! Not that being ripped off is losing me much money - everything is much cheaper here than in the states!
I am putting links to other blogs of our group members on the side as I get them. Check out those blogs if you're interested in more details about things we do here. There is so much I want to write but feel that I can't. It's hard to give you all a full view of what life is like here. All I can give are snapshots, which will have to do, even though they can never be a full picture.
