The biggest thing around here of course is the football team. The Crimson Tide are #2 in the nation and pretty much everything in Tuscaloosa revolves around the football team. This however, is not something that is entirely new to me since I went to High School in Green Bay where we have pretty much the same deal with the Packers.
I had sort of a bumpy start at the University because all the classes I intended to take were already full and the international office didn’t really make an effort to help me out. After taking to each of the professors I finally got into the classes that I had planned to take. The orientation days were, as expected, pretty boring. However, I’m glad that I’ve moved into the German House on campus. Not only did I have immediate contact to a bunch of people, it is also probably the most liberal place in Tuscaloosa County, in which by the way it is prohibited to by beer on Sunday’s.
Well, I guess we’ll find out pretty soon to how many more things I’ll have to get used to.
Best,
Eike
