So lately summer has been none less than amazing. I had orientation last week and I loved it. I met some amazing people, got to know the campus better, got to know others better, explored Westwood and part of the social life around campus, met up with a friend living in the area, picked my classes, was thought of as an advisor because people thought i had all the answers and generally just had a fantastic time. I just hope that the rest of my college years will be as much fun and that everyone is still very friendly. Ooh and I can't wait for the football games. I'm trying to get a group together from around here to go up for the games that are before school starts and we might meet up with some people I met at orientation that live in OC. I can't believe I still have almost 2 months until I leave. It's almost bittersweet. So many people are leaving before then so there wont' be as many people to hang out with yet I won't be working and will have time to get ready for school and finish projects I want to work on around here.
In other news I've been trying to hang out with new and random people. Friday I snapped with Kyle and used the sweet bubbler that he just finished making. He's actually really sweet, it's odd because I always used to think he was a bit odd in high school. I've been trying to call people I don't normally hang out with because it can never hurt to be too friendly and why not get to know people that after this summer I'll most likely be even less in touch with. I have decided I really like hanging out with random groups of people because you never know who you are going to meet or have in common with a person. I went ice skating a few weeks ago and knew one person and ended up talking to a lot of people that I realized I had a lot in common with and had so much fun. As awkward as it often is in the beginning, if you throw yourself into a new group or situation by the end it can be less awkward if you try to make it that way. However I really miss hanging out with some people that I used to hang out with a lot and never see anymore. Everyone just seems to keep growing apart and I know that's expected but I wish I could keep things together all the time.
I've been working at the gym a lot and become closer with some people that I never knew with before and now we're all super close and I really missing going to the gym like I used to. Oh if only I could turn back time. I actually just hope that the college years will be so amazing that they will make up for any other years that I messed up on.
Street Scene is this weeeknd!!!!! I'm soooo excited! the line up is amazing
