American Girl in Europe 9 Verviers

I really do want to learn phrases that I can use in town because it is so nerve racking trying to communicate with people who don't speak the same language. I hate being those people who always ask them if they speak English because I don't want them to think we expect it. We are just totally helpless unless they can speak or understand English.
So, I am excited to learn some useful phrases at least. At about 10 we started Our Western Heritage class. Again, we listened to a video of the teacher going over the syllabus and then listened to her narrate a PowerPoint presentation. This was exhausting because it lasted like an hour and a half and we hadn't moved since 8:30. I was totally done after not moving and just listening for 3 hours. That may seem pitiful, but I'm used to only listening for half that time and with breaks in between. Also, I became dead tired at about 10:30 and wanted nothing more than to just go back to sleep. I felt exhausted.
After that class, we had chapel and then lunch. Lunch was pork chops, corn, cauliflower and broccoli, applesauce, and of course bread. Always bread. It was delish.
