Life continues....

Not too much to update since Croatia. Things have been somewhat slow around here since then. For the most part I've just been hanging out with friends, checking out the clubs/parties in Graz and living it up.

However, yesterday was sadly my last day of summer. It was a little longer than most peoples and for that I'm grateful. Today I started classes, and I was in for a bit of surprise, seeing as I expected my classes to be in English. Sure enough, once the professor started lecturing, it was an hour and a half of pure German. Now I've picked up a fair amount of German since I've been here, but I'm certainly not ready to take classes in full on German. Luckily most of the students in the class are friendly and speak pretty good English so they were able to translate enough for me to get what was going on. I talked the professors after class and straightened everything out, so I think that I will be alright for the few months that I'm taking classes here. My current project is to design a hotel and parking structure in Graz. It's not like anything I've done yet so it should be interesting...

However, I lucked out on my schedule for the first week of class. It looks like I won't have anymore class past today. So you know what that means... time to travel. Tomorrow morning, a few friends and I are headed to Italy for a few days. I haven't really spent much time there so it should be pretty interesting! I'm very excited and you can expect a blog and pictures to follow soon....


Until then,

Yours truly

Eric

(Sorry for the lame post, but nothing too exciting has happened in the past two weeks!)
