Today was the first day I got to talk to anyone who I'll be studying with next semester. I became
Facebook friends with four students from various European countries, and began to chat with a few of them. It's comforting to hear that some of them have the same concerns as I do: money, packing and being away from family. I was so impressed with the fluency of their English, and was a little
embarrassed that my German is so remedial in comparison. Maybe I'll get to learn some other languages.
Another adjustment I'll have to make is the Fahrenheit to Celsius switch. I have no idea the conversion equation, so I set up two forecasts on my desktop for Columbia, one in Fahrenheit and the other in Celsius. Today, it's 42 degrees F here, and 6 degrees C. Hopefully I'll get some sense of conversion by the time I head to Scandinavia.
The latest headline out of Copenhagen: Summit on Global Warming Wraps up Today.
