The little orphan Annie was brilliant!! "The sun will come out tomorrow" is what we should have been singing yesterday because today was just a jolly good time! Everything about today was 1,000 times better than yesterday!!

We woke early and returned to the office of our first meeting yesterday. This time, we were welcoming into a room with packets, pens, and other gadgets on the table in piles for us. Now this is what I am talking about!!! Neville and our international director contact were both there to speak with us. We were able to confirm our modules and work out our possible weekly schedules. I will be taking Sports Marketing & Sponsorship, British History, and Sports PR & Media. We then were able to get a better understanding of our schedule for the week of orientation that will include some optional plans for all 8,000 or so international students, meeting with our department, field trips, and games. We will be going to Birmingham and Stratford-Upon-Avon within the next few days. We also got a better understanding of the major trips that we will be taking throughout the semester including a trip to Holland, Center Parc, and possibly Russia. We then got a real tour of the campus finally! I even connected to WiFi!! Also, after the tour, Bailey and I each bought a really nice sweater at a vintage sale in our student hub to weather the cold

The morning was just so grand! The five of us returned home with smiles! Even though our WiFi and ethernet at our apartment was still not working, someone had finally come to our apartment to fix the problem. It's about time!! We had some nice relaxing time and then we had to leave for our scheduled meeting at our workout center on campus. Once we went through a short tour, we were clear to work out. This workout definitely got ride of any tension that was still there from the last few days of frustration!

A family dinner of tacos and a night of cards was in order!!
