So I survived the first week of classes. I am starting to get the hang of things and soon essays will need to be planned and written so I am taking this time to enjoy the calm before the storm.

A few days ago, a few friends and I decided to watch “Sunshine on Leith” which is a musical movie using the songs of “The Proclaimers”.  I absolutely loved the movie, highly, highly, highly recommend it! It was a general feel-good movie that makes you want to both hug everyone and celebrate life, yet cry at the same time. One of my favorite songs in the movie is “Letter from America,” so that was my inspiration for the title for this particular blog post.

This week entails more classes, and exploration of the city.
