College!

Woo-hoo, I made it, here I am at college! I know, I know, surprise surprise, you all thought I'd end up in a van down by the river DON'T LIE! Ahem....

So. College. Pretty cool so far. 'Course, this is only the third day, and we're still in the "orientation" phase, so, I'm still reserving judgment. But I'm having a good time. Everybody seems really nice. I haven't really gotten to know anybody yet; I figure I'll do better with that once I get into classes and clubs and such. There's a "club carnival" on Friday, where we sign up for stuff, and I'll probably sign up for like, 10 different things, so it'll be cool.

My roommate isn't here yet; she's a junior, and will not be arriving until tomorrow, I believe. That'll be an adventure, I guess, but it'll also be pretty handy, having an upperclassman to ask about stuff. So it'll be good.

My half of the dorm room is all pimped out with my wicked awesome stuff; I've got friend pictures all over my desk and bulletin board, and my color-coordinated bedding and decor (navy, blue, teal & lime green) looks great. My posters are spread out on the floor flattening for the moment, but once they are up my walls will be graced by the presence of Happy Bunny, Queen, the stars of Chicago, and the cast of Rent. I would put up pictures of it for you, but I have neither digital camera nor scanner, so, no.

I signed up for classes today, and I'll find out if I got them tomorrow. My advisor said I probably would though. So I'll likely be in Elementary Spanish II, Intro to Lit, and I forget the name but it's Freshman Preceptorial, which is required for all freshmen, so we'll see how that turns out lol.

And now the most important part (of course), the food. The caf is pretty great, I must say. Pizza available every day (woo!) and other great stuff too. I've been being good though; I'm eating salad with every meal (except breakfast) so I'm getting my veggies. And I've only had pizza once. (The other meal consisted of stuffing, pasta, and cottage cheese, plus salad; maybe not the most well-rounded meal ever, but it was delicious).

So yeah....that's all I got for now. I'm gonna go eat now; I think I'll have a salad, and maybe a slice of pizza.
