Comics, Chocolates, and Classes

Today was a visit to the comic museum, which features a weird exhibit about space, plenty of smurfs, magic tricks, and my first "real" cup of coffee in Belgium. In short, it was exciting. Our tour guide was hilarious and it available for private parties--can anyone thing of an event we need a magician for? Maybe the March birthday blowout?

Anyway, after that was exploring the town with some new friends in search of chocolate. On the way, we found a wonderful little market place with beer candles, crazy jewelry, and scarves. We are the most obnoxious tourists ever. I'm sure of it. We continued to be touristy, also, by going to this bar (Drug Opera) in the middle of the day for a drink. Huzzah!

Now I'm off to watch the Giants game at Fatboy's, despite the fact that it starts at 1230 and I have class in the morning. What a way to start the semester! For the record (and my own memory), my classes:
Monday:
History of Conflicts since 1914 (11:30-1:00)

Tuesday:
Intro to International Relations (10:00-11:30)
Practical French (11:30-1:00)
Belgium (4:30-6:00)

Wednesday:

Dilemmas of European Integration (4:30-6:00)

Thursday:
French (11:30-1:00)
Conflicts since 1914 (4:30-6:00)
European Integration (6:00-8:00)

Friday:

That's it for now, more adventures later!
