Just your average Tuesday

Nothing too interesting happened today...

I watched my friends spend $300 on planes tickets to Amsterdam because they're going in 2 weeks which hurt my wallet just thinking about even though I'm waiting for later on in the semester

I met a kid from Colorado who studied at Middlebury and was here for the semester who was struggling just as much as I was. Thankfully Delaney was there to help the both of us with our needs. No one told the poor kid that peanut butter here was either 1. impossible to find or 2. super expensive.

I found out that it's super hard to find fresh milk here, almost all of it is boxed and unrefrigerated, which just freaks me out.

Also found out that my debit card doesn't have a chip in it, and some places it won't work because of that. I had no cash on me so Delaney used her card to pay for and I had to find an ATM to give her cash. If she wasn't there I would've been so screwed. But the cashier was cute, so it was all worth the embarrassment of another tourist moment.

Tomorrow is the first day of classes, so we should see how having to be at class at 8:30am with a minimum 30 minute commute will go. Wish me luck!
