Settling into a Schedule

This is the third week of classes. I'm finally settling into a schedule:

I'm taking three classes at AU, Tuesday and Wednesday nights: Development Microeconomics, Micropolitics, and Managing Economic Policy Reform. Tuesdays are really late; I get out of the second class at 10:40!

Monday and Thursday mornings I put in my hours as a research assistant for R, one of the professors in my program. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I pick up B and L- the children of two visiting professors- from school and keep them for a few hours.

I just signed up for a French class through the USDA. It meets for three hours Thursdays in the evening.

Fridays we have the Friday Forum for IDPSA (International Development Program Student Association, as well as planning meetings.

It's taking me a while to adjust to the faster pace of life here, after such a different rhythm in Haiti.
