Washington D.C. - Sunday

I'm in D.C. right now taking a "Maymester" class about African Development. We have class Mon-Fri from 8:30-5:30 so I think it'll be a pretty tiring week. As soon as this class is finished I'll be flying from DC to NYC to Amsterdam to Ghana.

Tonight I started taking my Malaria medication. You're supposed to start taking it a week before you arrive in the country. Apparently, sometimes Malaria meds have really crazy side effects, like hallucinations and night terrors! I really hope I don't get any of those! I warned my roommates though. I'm staying in apartments that Syracuse University rents for students. They're pretty nice, although over priced, and they have free internet which is nice.

I went sightseeing today with a few of my friends so here are some of the photos I took:
