Today was the first day of class. Emnet, Drew, and I sat in the back and listened for a while, testing our knowledge from when we were here a year ago. We left about 2 hours in to go on an adventure with Jeny (a super cool chica who lives here and helps us coordinate things) to La Ciudadela, an enormous market in search for bags. Though we failed in finding them at a good price, we treated ourselves to some pastries on the way back. There are no words to fully describe Mexican bakeries... Later on we all went to the nearest mall to buy cell phones before returning back to our casas. We walked around the city a LOT today, and I am absolutely exhausted. Doctora Galloway started piling on the TA duties as well, and it's definitely teaching me to reach beyond my grasp. I feel like I've learned more in the past two days than I ever could in an entire semester at home. Tomorrow we have a very filled day, so I'm excited! This program is super fast-paced, but I wouldn't have it any other way. There is definitely no comparison.
"You shall not go out with haste, . . . for the Lord will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard." —Isaiah 52:12
