That whole study part...

Although I realize that am in Berlin on "Study Abroad," my broad assumption after Chile was that study abroad was more the abroad part (i.e. experience the life) and not so much to study part.

However, life here in Berlin is quite different. I feel like I've done more school work and home work here than I did for the entire last six months. I am not sure if it is because the Germans take their University studies more seriously or because some of my courses are in English, but a lot more is definitely being expected of me here than there was in Chile!
