Just got back home from an exhausting day in school. Everyone seems to be sick now (except me, knock on wood!) and the level of enthusiasm is not really high. Although it's really nice that school started and I get to see everyone again, there's just an overload of work to do. I feel like I'm not doing anything else than reading, working on the project, or being in lectures.
A lot of the courses this semester are basically repetitive or building on previous courses, so there's not really much new stuff to learn, just focusing on doing it better and more advanced than last year. For example, last year we had a course in intercultural communication and this year it's cross-cultural management; basically just applying our knowledge to the business world.
I can't stop loving the internationalism that surrounds me here though. It's really something that I wouldn't have had if I would have chosen to study in Sweden. For instance, today we had a 2½ hour break between two classes and were sitting around a table, some chilling and some studying. The conversations were in French, English, German, Swedish and Dutch. I love it! I am 100% sure that this is the type of environment I want to be in when I start working.
