First days in Belgium!

I left from Dulles Airport Wednesday and at the gate found all the other JMU students waiting to board the plane. Coincidentally, my roommate Caitie, was sitting right next to me! I was glad I sat next to her because I am afraid of flying, and she is not at all! We got to know each other during the flight which was great. I was planning on sleeping the whole time by taking Valium because of my fear of flying. I do not know what happened but I took three of them (10 mg during the day 20mg on the flight) and nothing happened! I was wide awake and wired, but not very anxious so the flight went pretty well. I ended up watching three movies and reading cosmo.
We arrived in Brussels, Belgium at 7am then took a bus to Antwerp. Our living arrangements are really nice. There is a gate and then a courtyard, and all the apartments are there (only JMU students). Caitie and I live together, but we each have our own room. We share the bathroom and kitchen. Everything is very modern. We found out yesterday that the warm water only stays on for about five minutes, but we have managed to work it out. There is a common room downstairs that has internet, luckily, in our room we are able to have it sometimes as well.
We did not have time to nap yesterday because we had a little orientation where we learned about Antwerp and got our cell phones. Almost everyone fell asleep during it! Then we walked around Antwerp for a little and had dinner at this really good pizza place. We came home at 7pm, some people decided to go out but I fell asleep right away and slept until 8:00 this morning (13 hours of sleep that I desperately needed!).
Today we had breakfast at the university, which is only a 2 minute walk! We had another little orientation. Right now we have a free lunch time, but later we are going grocery shopping. At 5:00pm we also have a Flemish class to learn a few phrases! Unfortunately, I got sick when I got here and had to go to the doctor who gave me antibiotics that I have to take for seven days. He told me to not drink ANY alcohol while I am on them. This is sucks for the first week of being in Belgium, but it is ok! And I will still go out tonight just to see what the night life is like here!
So much in the first two days! I'll keep updating as much as I can!
