Ah, so THIS is what it's like, eh?

i woke up at 6am. and i mean i was actually awake not rolling over going "mmrghrhll" and falling back asleep.

it's breezy and warm now, not sure what the exact temp is but that's ok. my room looks out east over the ocean. i saw the sunrise this morning. first time for that too.

also the first time to hear donkeys braying for their breakfast. we have a small herd on campus and the farm isnt that far from the dorms. we have horses, cattle, and sheep too.

i DID take some pictures of my room, but my camera cable is shot, so it may be a while before i get those uploaded. i'll see if anyone else has a cable later today.

our schedule for today is a campus tour, an island tour, then heading to the beach. heh. i brought a bikini but im not sure if i will wear it first day out. and im not sure how long i will be able to maintain my 39 year goth paleness out here, even with SPF30. and i should probably keep my scars under wraps until they fade a bit. all that new skin is pretty fragile.

stuff is a bit more expensive here, even given the exchange of 1 US dollar = 2.7 east caribbean dollars. but they have to import everything here, except rum and banannas, those are cheap. example: an 8 roll pack of toilet paper is 45$EC, so that's 16.67$US. yeah... glad i brought one from home to start with.

i will blog again tonight once we are back for the night. tomorrow starts actual orientation week!
