Life at Spring Hill
Lots has happened since I last updated. Ashley and I went to a frat party at USA with her friend Chris Sunday night. I had an alright time, they had a live band, and there was a small group of people from Spring Hill there so I met them. Monday consisted of ESCAPE which was like summer camp. That night I went to the cloister and hung out with Kelsey and Ashley S. I met even more people that night. I think everyday for the next few weeks I will be meeting new people. Tuesday classes started. I have public speaking and english comp. on Tues./Thurs. and I have education, theology, and history on Mon./Wed./Fri. I was really worried about my classes being overwhelming or intimidating but I think I can handle them all. They seem challenging but in a good way. I have two weirdos in my english class, I feel bad because I keep having the urge to laugh but I can't just blatantly start laughing at them. They had a hypnotist come last night and I was one of the lucky people who got to be hypnotized. It was sooo weird, crazy, and funny. I have seen people be hypnotized before and I really wanted to do it so I'm glad it worked on me and I got to stay up there. I'm glad I didn't get chosen to do anything extremely weird though. He made this one guy think his name was ChaCha and that was the funniest thing ever. Sometimes when I'm walking around campus or sitting in the caf. I'm just thinking to myself OMG I can't believe I'm really at college. I feel so old now. I need to have a lot of fun this weekend because having to go through such a big change is stressing the hell out of me. The plan is that I'm going out with some people Friday to see the town of Mobile and that night we're going to a club downtown. I would also really like to go to the beach one day, I haven't been to the beach since I left Rhode Island this summer. Things overall are good. It's hard adapting to such a change and being around so many people I don't know. I miss my friends, family, and Jeffrey a lot. Derrick is going home for labor day and he said that it would be alright if I wanted to get a ride. I feel like it's too soon to go home. I really do miss home a lot though. I was gone for so long this summer but that was camp and then a trip with close friends, college is completely different. I really can't decide what to do, I'll talk to my parents and friends and see what they think. I am a very independent person and I think I've seen and experienced a lot in my life. It's not that I feel like I can't handle everything I just miss familiarity of close friends and family. I also can get insecure sometimes when I am around so many new people, that is one of my flaws I wish I could fix. I need to go and get some homework done and also find out about getting a job of some sort.
