Into the Groove

I can now say that the pace has definitely picked up and I am starting to feel the pressure of what it means to be a student again and what it really means to be in grad school. I have a ton of reading, a full load of classes, a paper due next week, have already finished one presentation and am preparing for another one in a couple weeks time. As well as trying to juggle a social life in amidst all the stimulus of being a student. Life has suddenly become busy again.

Apart from all that I have decided to keep up my addiction to dance. I have found two university dance classes I will take throughout the semester: International Folk Dance and Salsa Rueada de Casino. Apart from all that I have also found a local place in town that has a weekly salsa night - Maya Coba!

And if that wasnt enough I am taking intensive German classes, 7 hour a week at the Language Centre on campus. I figured it will be worth it, as I have decided to do my second semester also in Germany at the Berlin School of Economics. I had pondered about the idea of going elsewhere to South Africa or to Brazil, however, in the end I feel that I made the best decision and I am certain I will thoroughly enjoy Berlin.
