So, Mr. "I update everyday and talk about my life online" is back from a long break
I'm so bored that I chose someone's xanga and clicked previous like.. 10 times, just looking at whatever pictures she put up lol. Then it hit me, "I SHOULD UPDATE!"
Well, the first day of college for me was a pain in the booty. Not that great. I was basically the only freshmen actively living in my building, and... well, bored with no friends. I carried in 125 pounds of luggage by myself
, until a kick butt awesome senior named Emily Buzzell saved my life and took me into my room lol. Then.. I sat around really homesick for a while lol.The days after that have been better
. Meeting a lot of great people and great friends. College is nothing like I've ever expected...well, kind of lol, but I can't really give my final judgement yet because class hasn't started. I personally think I've made the right group of friends so far
. I'm accepting others for who they are, while I also stay closer with people who have positive influences on me. (I was scared at first because I thought there wouldn't be many "non-'partiers'"). I just think i'm not that into the millions of frat parties here. I'd rather spend time to get to know friends or whatnot
which is great!So there were some really boring orientation events, and some really funny ones.
overall, everything's pretty nice. My roommate and I get along really well. I like him
even though a lot of us thought we wouldn't get along lol. He's an orthodox Jew (really strong one) and I'm a Christian.
But we're learning to compromise and it's all good! My room's a kick-butt room too so yay
. I'm just not used to the raining and weather here. Vegas weather...I miss the non-humidity, but not the heat
. Sorry to you there who are suffering from it haha. But I'm also suffering from the sweat or the coldness
. Everyone thinks it's fine weather when I"m freezing my butt off haha. I think I'm sort of a changed person here. JoAnna put it as, "more confident and relaxed." haha
I think I'm getting over some of the things from back home, starting new, and it's really great. Forget the past troubles, keep the strength, and live to make everyone else happy
. Share Jesus' love! Tomorrow, my classes start so.... YAY lol (I'm not sure if that's a sarcastic Yay or sincere Yay yet).
Oh, and the freshmen 15 hasn't even started yet. I've lost 6 pounds lol. But it'll gain back
, I've had ice cream every meal since yesterday haha.Some Pictures from my days here at Stouffer Outdoors (Outdoor camping thingy):

It was fun

JESUS RULES~!!
“Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on
earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of
the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded
you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”- Matthew 28:18-20
