The last few days were really fantastic, because I came in contact with so many people from all over the world. This already started on Sunday when I got to know other students on my floor. No doubt, socializing is a very important thing and for that reason we already had one kitchen party yesterday evening with over 15 people sitting in our kitchen drinking beer and watching the "Sixth Sense" with Bruce Willis. Monday was Iris's birthday and for that reason a group of Austrians, Spanish, Japanese, Germans and Italian {1} decided on going down to the Hothouse which is a disco at the quay. Moreover it was sports night as well which is a great idea, because doing some sports together can unite people from different countries. Exeter in fact is not completely new to me, because I have been here two times before in 1995 and 1996, but then I attended a course at the International School. The first two days in class were really interesting, because we started out with comparing business meetings and negotiations in different countries and especially here in Britain. Apart from some grammar which was for sure very very useful we talked about British Press and News and sew some of the Day's economic news. This topic was really fascinating and I'm looking forward to hear more in the following lessons. The excursion to the glass factory today and speaking to two representatives was very informative and will probably bring us closer to our project aim which we will discuss tommorow morning.
