1. It was lovely lovely lovely outside today!!

2. I slept quite well last night.

3. Today was good enough.

4. I really like my Russian prof.

5. I got to run.

Also learned two dances and didn't do too shabby at them! and sat under a tree to do homework and there was a lovely breeze and the sun was setting...

so I have plenty to be thankful for today.

First Day of School!

DANC (Folk and Square) : There are a lot of people in the class but they are mostly Phys. Ed teacher majors. Slightly intimidating. It was fun though. But we did a REALLY easy dance and I couldn't even do it. HAHAHA. OHWELL! So we just giggled :) I might drop it, I'm not sure. >> nah, I'll keep it. It's physical activity and exercising another part of my brain. I'll just cut down on the credit hours next semester. I think this class will be good for me. :D

MATH (Stats) : One of the first things the prof told us was that it was not a math class. She said if you're bad at math you're not necessarily bad at stats. YAY FOR ME!!!!!

PSYCH (Child Development) : It's a big lecture. The instructor is nice, and I love psych so I know I'll love the info. It'll definitely be hard, and some of the assignments seem sort of impossible for me, ha, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

BIO : Very nice prof. I think the lecture part will be fine. It's the lab I'm worried about, and that's tomorrow.

RUSN (lang) : HAHAHAHAHAHA we're all SO behind. There are 11 of us, and I know all but two of the guys. They're new. But the reason I took the class (other than minoring) is because I like the people. We just laugh.

Tomorrow I have Russian Culture and Bio Lab. woot woot!

waiting...

In 24 hours I will climb into the van and my daddy will drive us into the flat lands. and it will be goooood bye to my darling hilly treeey home. but I'm ready to go back.

I have so much stuff! aaaaaaaaagh!

It's rainy today but it's nice somehow. It was gorgeous all week, I can now deal with some rain.

Oh it is so hard to be motivated to pack! aaaaaaaagh! ;)

I talked to one of my friends from school and asked her how many international students would be living the the learning community this year. She didn't know exactly but she did say there were people from Europe, Russia, Ukraine, Krygyzstan (spelling??), and Japan. Quite a difference from last year when we just had people from Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong. (love them dearly, but it wasn't really global.) I'm not living there again but I can't wait to visit!! :D

...enough procrastination I suppose.... off to packing I shall go... or try... eeeeeeee....

thankful

I want to try and be thankful for 5 things every day. I won't put it on the blog every day, but for today, why not?

1. It is absolutely gorgeous outside.

2. That Sarah K told me about the jean sale and so I was able to get some fresh jeans without holes in the bums. woot woot!

3. For dinner with my parents' friends tonight. (and Chicken Run, one of the cutest movies ever! :) )

4. For plenty of boxes. (Though I am not at all looking forward to moving them....)

5. For less time left until I leave. I'm ready to go. It will be bittersweet of course, but I'm definitely ready to be away from my parents, however much I do love them.

hope you have a happy night!

oh, I'm also quite glad Hilary got away from that horrid job!!

tomorrow and the next day

and then i leaaaave....

again.

totally got this.

three more nights here.

packing is ...bleh.

i'm so ready for this year and all of its adventures though. i know it will be so very hard and i'm so ready for it. school is hard for everyone. and the friend issues, well, i'm ready for them. i'm starting out feeling way better than i did last year, and last year ended in an ok place. well, sort of. it all sort of exploded the week before we got out, but at least i was somewhat comfortable there.

anyway, i'm excited!

now... somebody tell me to stop blabbering on and start packing... ;)

1. It is GORGEOUS outside! and still under 90* at noon!
2. I only have 6 more nights here.. eek! I'm more excited to go back than I was last year, and last year ended ok, so I figure I'll be fine :)
3. Daddy and I saw a COYOTE!! yesterday!
4. Today I'm organizing... trying to... pre-packing I guess I'm calling it.
5. My socks are running away! :(

soo not very exciting day... but necessary I suppose.

off to organize my clothes, zone off staring at the sky and listen to some sweet music.

:D

yay us!

yay blogging!

hi friends!

now that people will actually read it I can write fun things :D hehe
