Well, one month down. I am hitting the books trying to get ready for my first round of tests... lab practical on Friday and our first marathon 5-hour-every-subject-covered exam (ironically called a "mini" exam because it is not a final) on Monday. The amount of information so far is pretty crazy, but I'm loving it, and so the long hours are ok. The island is still awesome -Trina and I are finally figuring out the places to buy stuff, and last night we went to an independence day celebration for the island... which is a little weird because their independence day is in november. Oh well, these people don't need much of an excuse to party - they all get together at the park and put up grandstands and a stage and random people sing and play music and everyone dances. There is plenty of beer and grilled plantains stuffed with salt cod (sounds weird, I know, but it is actually pretty good). that's about all that's new - we're hitting our stride with school and life on the island, and life is good. hopefully we'll get pictures posted for you guys soon, but since the digital camera broke, all we have is Trina's film camera, and we have no idea where to develop film here, much less get the pictures scanned to post online. anyway, if we find out, we'll get them posted, if not, there may not be new pictures until December. Hope is all well back home in the States.
