because i really do love it here

-green hills surround the city
-blue skies day after day (apparently they had months of rain up until when we arrived)
-finding that the world isn't so different as i thought
-music wars in the common room
-swedish techno (....awful)
-playing the "is it true in your country that..." game
-DISCUSSIONS in classes
-no multiple choice tests!
-cultural studies
-finding a group of girls from various countries that can come together and just be really good friends
-cooking group dinners
-having difficulty making travel plans simply because there are TOO many possibilities and opportunities to go wherever i please
-roast coffee house! slightly more posh than ERC but free wireless and superb cappacinos
-forgetting about money for a while, forgetting how much the exchange rate hurts, and just living.
