First days
Fortunately, my overall traveling experience went very smoothly. The only bad part was the 8 inches of snow that fell the night before my flight. Other than that, there were no delays, lost luggage, or screaming babies. Also, Customs only took a few minutes. Jetlag really hasn't been giving me too many problems. Except for almost falling asleep at the introductory dinner, I've been pretty alert. In my defense though, we were sitting on very comfortable couches. All of the people that came over through the Scotland Program have gotten acquainted pretty well, so it should make for an easier transition, hopefully.
I can't believe how much walking I have already done! Wabash has definitely spoiled me. It takes twice as long just to reach campus as it normally would take to walk my farthest Wabash class. At least I will be getting some good exercise. I have, however, gotten to see some cool things on my walks, such as the church on campus, which is the oldest building at the university. Everything is made from grey granite. At first, it made everything seem gloomy, but the sun came out today and changed that feeling. I took some pictures so I won't try to explain it here. Since the sun is out now I think ill go take advantage of it. Hopefully, I'll be able to keep this blogging thing going and write some more.
