Living The Life...Well Almost

So I know it has been awhile since I have blogged. I am a bad blogger....but I promise I will start blogging at least twice a week. So let me update you.

We have now had two full weeks of classes, and I LOVE it!!!! I especially love my contemporary class. It reminds me so much of Marcy's classes back home. All of my classes but two are held at the Crescent Arts Centre. It is an amazingly nice building, and I can't believe we are using their space. I have been sick this week, so I haven't been at my best. Those of you that know me will know how much that bothers me. Over here, they tend to give you all of your assignments for one term all at once. This can be a wee bit overwhelming, but I am coping. My to-do lists are many, and I am(like I always do) getting a head start on a lot of them. So basically this once again means that I will most likely have no life. Oh well. I did find out that the 2nd yr HNDs will be taking a Master Class, that is usually only open to professional dancers, with Russell Maliphant!

Kenzie & I have had fewer moments of getting lost now that we are getting used to the layout of the city. Except for today....when I mistakenly did not get off a bus when I should have. It then proceeded to change routes and numbers. Needless to say, I took a detour way up into northwest Belfast. I am not real sure I will want to go back. We have been finding lots of restaurants from back home, and SURPRISE, they aren't very different. We have found KFC, MCDONALD'S, BURGER KING, SUBWAY, TONY ROMA'S, and T.G.I. FRIDAY'S. The last two were the most impressive.

All of the Stranmillis students are here now, and I can honestly say that I miss the quiet. I liked when there were only five of us. Dinner has been pretty good(we had some amazing lasagna tonight). I have not been able to have breakfast due to scheduling but I will definitely try to this weekend. I am still trying to think of a way to get Kenzie to stay for the Spring. I think between me and all of the drama students we should be able to think of something.

Till next time!!!
