College begins

Yesterday was my first day of college in Alabama, As most of you know im studying mostly business classes but iv also decided to do a module in safety and first aid, should be a breeze. My classes are all on Monday, Wednesday Fridays an hour each day per module. Class sizes are generally around 15 - 20 and so far my class mates all seem really dead on.
Iv really enjoyed my last few days here im starting to feel more and more comfortable around campus everyone has been really dead on. On Saturday there was a back to school party. The party was held outside in the car park were the DJ's had set up two speakers and their decks. Around 300-400 students turned up. it was so funny all the songs have a set dance which everybody knows. I was really the token white boy and felt totally inadequate when it came to dancing. but it was a lot of fun and im getting to know a lot of people around campus.
Just thought i would let you all know that today we had 35 degree heat and clear skies, sorry bout all the flooding, i saw some of the photos was kinda mental!!
Hope everyone back home is doing well miss you all
I will try and get some photos up soon!!
