Finally settling in to my apartment. As mentioned yesterday, we watched a movie as an apartment and it was really nice just to sit and laugh together. Everyone was up and running about until around 3 this morning! Today was the first day of a conference that several of the ISA students are attending. I am not participating so I can [hopefully] spend some time with my girlfriends from A&M that are also studying here in Amman. Today allowed me to collect myself, catch up with the time difference and calm my anxieties. I was able to talk with Zachary and with my grandmother who let me know that her traveling group is reading my blog - talk about pressure!! (Hah - Hi, KBG!) It was really good though; I haven't gotten much feedback and it was really wonderful to know that people are reading my blog (and enjoying it)!
I met up with everyone for dinner at a local coffee shop. After dinner, I went to Safeway with Maegan and Brenda for water and school supplies. The other set of ISA apartments is close to the market so while there, we ran in to three other students we know! It's so refreshing to run in to a familiar face. We took a taxi home (which I am getting VERY good at even though I have never used a taxi in the US) and have just arrived in our apartment. I spoke to my friend Nina earlier and we discussed visiting each other tomorrow. If we do, I'll let you know what crazy shenanigans a couple of Aggies can get into :)
Miss you all so very, very much.
Love from Amman.
