CLASSES START Wednesday, September 3rd

OMFG- the system is sooooooo different from the Austrian one. First the classes are really small just 15 to 20 people, even in the Business classes. At the end of the class they just say good bye, they don’t rap their knuckles on the table as we do. another thing, the books. Wow, the americans spend a fortune on books. For one class, you need at least one book which is about $100-200 Dollars (they take four to five courses).next thing- online excercises. Most of our excercises, especially homework we have to do online. To access these excercises we have to get an extra code, which is again about $50 Dollars. That really sucks! Although the classes haven’t really started yet, we have a lot of homework to do. reading, reading, reading, vocab, vocab etc. but we are in the States, who cares!

Oh,not to be forgotten, Daily’s. It’s the dinning hall of Rider University, where they serve many kinds of different food, they have whatever you want. You have access to the dining hall almost the entire day. Eating, eating, eating!
