i have to say that this is the happiest i have ever been about livejournal. it really is nice to be able to just pop in and see what's going on in everyone's lives. although i am sad to hear of your social hesitations.
i am eating a dove promise, and the wrapper said, "promise yourself more moments like this." hehe, either way that is cool... 1 = more chocolate, 2 = i should keep in touch with you guys more.
so...
i have some ROUGH classes. i signed up for calculus II, german 203, humanities, and chemistry. i have like twenty hours of work a day. but that is how i like it, so it is all cool. tomorrow i have my first test of college!!
i saw michelle today in the dinig hall (i see her every once in a while, maybe once a week), and she told me that the sacred heart volleyball team beat newman. haha... they like ALL called her, and no one called me. hehe, i was always the super peppy volleyball team member. i asked her if she was liking sewanee yet, and she said, "it's getting better." i really hope she gets to love it, because it makes me very said when people haven't found the right place for themselves. like how patty migel was at sacred heart. there are two people who i think are super cool here that are already talking about wanting to transfer next semester, so that sucks.
oh man! i went to the flea market this weekend and got the coolest belt. this guy was selling cowboy-looking leather belts that you could get your named stamped on, all for just $8. i got one that says "bobby sue," and i borrowed a belt buckle from leighton that has a gun on it.
i had my first radio show last week. it is called "listen to pinkerton" because i was wearing that shirt the day we had to turn in our name, and someone suggested it. my theme is to end each show with a song from pinkerton or a b-side, just something pre-green. it was a lot of fun, but very hectic. i'm sure it will be better with two people, lauren... it gets crazy trying to find what you want to play and get it set up, and we have to read x number of psas and say you're listening to wuts, etc. hehe... the first time i talked i said, "hey guys. this is amy and i'm listening to - i mean *you're* listening to - wuts, 91.3 fm."
friday i went kayaking on the hyawassee (sp??) river, and it was one of the most beautiful places i've ever seen. i only fell out of my kayak once, too! i definitely want to do that again. it just blows my mind every time i do outdoors stuff around here. we are supposed to go camping this friday. i go hiking every few days, or swimming in a lake or at the quarry, or to look at the stars. it is great.
oh man, and i don't have to spend any money on gas... just ride my bike everywhere. so that is sweet. except for the fact that everyone up here has mountain bikes while i have maggie's hot pink beach cruiser. it is fun, but the one-speed thing isn't so good for the hills. oh well. i never lock it up cuz i know no one will steal it.
hmmmm, well, i know i had mountains of more stuff to say, but i can't really remember.
haha, one thing i can tell you that will make you laugh... garrecht got caught by the cops at some party, totally drunk, and they called my mom to come get him. he can't get his license for an extra month, and he can't drive after dark until the new year. haha...what a loser! (that was a joke).
finally... if a band called loyal frisby is every playing near you guys, go check them out because there are a super fun band from st. augustine AND jonathan parish (rushmore) is now playing bass for them.
