Getting settled...
So now I have a new phone and a bank account here. Still need to get a place to live. Now living at my host family's house. They're very nice. Not the kind you expect Americans to be like. They hate their president and often call him a jerk and complain about what he has done. They are my kind of people. ;) They help me if I need help, drive me anywhere if I need a ride. Linda is also a great cook. They are very down to earth. I like them very much. We are going to look at apartments tomorrow. Yes, they are coming with me because they want to help in every way they can to make my beginning here more pleasant. I feel a little lost not knowing almost any people or place here. But today I made some new friends who feel as lost as I do. It was good to know that I'm not the only one. They are also exchange students, two from Australia and one from Mexico. We were together quite a lot today and will go to a bar tomorrow evening. Most likely I'll meet some American students next week. They're not really at the campus this week since classes start next week.
I'm actually quite tired now, so I won't write anymore today. Just thought I'd tell you all about my lovely host family, since some of you have already asked about that. So now you know what they are like. And I am having fun here, even though life here is a little hard sometimes. Miss you all very much.

Nice to know that your hosts are OK. Must feel nice not to have that to stress about :)
Jetlag is a bitch, takes almost a week to totally get adjusted. I'm a bit worried about our turist trip to the states just becouse of that (it's only a one week trip).
Have a great day sis!
PS. You little bro is getting his computer back so they'll have access to iphone/messenger/webcam/etc from home starting this weekend. Hope he realizes it's not only for playing WOW...

Gotta love a family of Bush-haters. ;) So cool that they want to help you with everything. But I suppose they wouldn't be doing the hosting thing otherwise.
Nice to know you've already made some acquintances (that how u spell it?). Beware of the exchange student "let's do nothing but drink and party"-lifestyle. ;)
Here's to hoping u get a nice apartment!
Uuuh, now I get to chat with the home folks too. :)
Have a nice weekend!
