My first day of class

Well I had my very first class at a Chilean University today and it went pretty well.  I got to the room about 20 minutes early because you all know me and I like to be overprepared for everything so I got there way to earlyto ensure I wouldn’t be late but it turns out there is a tendencyfor Chilean professors to arrive late to their classes (anywhere from 5-20 minutes late) so I sat outside the classroom and waited for a while because all classrooms remained locked until the teacher arrives with the key to unlock it.  So the class went well, everyone introduced themselves and where they were from and then we got into groups did a small exercise and then class was over for the first day.  Overall the professor was very nice and friendly but she talked suuuuuuuuuuuper fast! I understood most of what she said but I also asked her a couple questions after class that I needed clarification on which she gladly answered.  One thing I found strange about the classrooms was that the desks were super close together, like literally touching one another so it was a little difficult to get in and out of them and you don’t really have personal space but it’s not that bad.  I only had one class today in a building I had already had to get to alone, tomorrow will be the real adventure at the campus that is about 25 minutes away by bus and I have to walk 15 minutes once I get off the bus.  It’s my fist time going to the campus alone so I hope I don’t get lost!!
