Welcome to Galileo!!!

As I finished Art on Monday, a million thoughts rushed through my head about what was going to happen next. What was Galileo? Why are we doing it? Are the teachers nice? Will I completely fail this program? And most importantly, for the moment, WHERE WAS I SUPPOSED TO GO???? Luckily, one of my friends, who just happened to have finished Galileo (Juliet) , told me just to go to the loft. So off I went, plundging into the unknown.

The first few days of Galileo answered most of my questions. I found the teachers funny, nice and interesting. The group discussions were great and I especially found the trails exciting as we were allowed to go about in the city with more independence as well as more responsibility. The only thing I didn't really like was how much we had to walk, though being a midget in a group of relatively tall people with much longer strides didn't help much. In the second trail, we also got lost and went the wrong way. :) I also liked the 'skill workshop' we had (if it was one), because it was really informative, and I didn't really know anything about the city before that. Finding out my home group, I think the rest of the term will be fun!!!!!

I hope that there will be more trails like the past two this week, where it was more independent. I also hope that the skills workshops will be as helpful as the one this week. Because we got lost and had to walk for ages in today's (Friday's) trail, I fear that we may get lost again, though I seriously hope not!!!!
