first college update
Odd to think about...I've been here for a whole week and I have yet to update from my own computer in my own room. But all that is changing now...
So far so good. My roommates are great. Micaela (from Cali), Kristin (PA), and Julia (VA)...we all have a that crazy goofy side but at the same time I know that we all have similar goals and wants for our room. Which is good, right? So nothing to complain about there.
Classes started yesterday and were good. For the most part I have two smaller classes and two larger lecture courses with discussions. Profs aren't bad, as of yet, really nothing to complain about there either.
I kinda feel like all this is too good to be true? I don't have things to complain about...I'm not incredibly home sick yet...I am hungry (damn J Street not being fully open)...I learned a valuable lesson on Monday (but that's a long story)...I do miss people, but that's what the phone and AIM is for? Ah well. I guess I just haven't really picked through my mind long enough to realize that there are things bothering me.
My Aunt was rushed back to the hospital and had emergency surgery...again. Probably the hardest news I've been hit with all week, as of yet. And I feel horribly because I really want to be there for her and especially for my mother because I know how these situations pull on her emotional balance.
So
maybe
I
am
homesick?
But not overly. I have a good support system here...nights after classes of walking and laying on the floor laughing, eating leftovers with Phil and just realizing how good I have it. And then coming back here and being able to joke around with the three crazy roomies that I think will be a large part of my sanity here.
But I do miss you guys.
I'll post my email and address up here eventually...when I'm not so lazy.
I miss you, I love you...hope things are going well.
