School has started

Ok, so I haven't written in a while but, I've been extremely busy. I was also hoping that I could continue with my previous post about the trip down here but, haha, like the procrastinator that I am, I keep putting it off. Well, since that trip there has been a lot going on. I took the Comprehensive Self exam which I'm required by my school to take in order to take USMLE Step1 and I passed it!!! Yay!!!! Now I just have to decide what day to sit for the Step and study like hell until then.
I bought a GPS when I got down here to help me get around Miami. It's very confusing and scary to drive around here especially if you don't know where you are going. Now, I'm getting use to it and I know how to get to the places I need to go most often. Everything I need is close by, but not close enough to walk like Stop and Shop, CVS and City Line were back home but that's okay. The GPS lady has been a source of great amusement, especially with Monica driving!!!! Monica just hears the direction and thinks that she has to "turn left" right now when the lady actually said "in point 7 miles turn left". The first really funny incident was when we had to drive my mom to the airport. Apparently we got off at the wrong exit or something and the lady kept on saying every ten feet "bare right, then turn right" and "turn right, then turn right", and my mom was like "we are going around in circles" and I was like "yeah, but this is a different circle" and Sarah was laughing!!!! We had to yell at her (GPS lady) shutup!!! I already turned right.
The maps that are on the GPS are kind of old so, there are turns that don't exist. Like this one time i was told "turn right, then turn left". I looked and i was like, "turn left where into the abandoned gas station??? So I turned right and "missed" the turn left and kept going. Then she said "turn right" like three times and I ended up back at the corner where I started, turned right and kept on going straight until she told me to "turn left" instead of right. With that I ended up back on the same street I was originally on, only farther down.
Also, one of the exits to get to my house (yes I said exits...it depends on which highway you are on that determines what exit you get off of. confusing, i know.) she says to "turn right" and apparently thinks that there is a driving circle close by but the map doesn't match the road and when I did that...we ended up getting lost and i wanted to chuck the damned GPS out of the window. Now I just turn left and I end up home.
Miami has some crazy drivers. I'm going to be a pro at defensive driving by the time I leave this place. And they love U turns. I have never made a single U turn in my life before coming down here and sometimes you have to make a U turn to get into the shopping center or parking lot you need to get too because there are barriers that block the roads and stuff.
Ok, that's all for now. I'm going to have to keep a notebook with me to write down things as they happen so I can post them here because there are soooooo many funny moments (especially driving!!!) but I can't think of them all right now. I'll post them as they come to me.

Peace Out!!!
