First week of class

Ok...despite the classes being Tuesday and Wednesday from 6-10pm, they really weren't that exciting. However, everyone in my Research and Methods class are starting to slightly panic as we should be coming up with ideas for our thesis within the next month. Part of this is because the two MAJOR assignments we have for the class are geared to help us with our thesis...one is a proposal and the other is a lit review. As for the program size, it is actually quite large with approx 15 people. 90% are from America and the other are a few Thais, Dutch (studying at Webster's main campus in St Louis) and a Chinese. As for backgrounds, I appear to be the only one with a background in International Relations. Everyone else is in business...however there is one guy who has worked in conflict zones so, he at least, has some real life experience.

As for the agenda for the rest of the week? I'll hopefully get my Thai classes figured out, do some more sightseeing and look for an internship!
