In Seattle this moring, in Olympia at the moment. Still struggling mildly with jet-lag, course I made no real effort to fight it off and reset my clock yesterday, so still being a bit sleepy today is no surprise. Right o'...took my first look at Evergreen today and my fucking god is it absolutely beautiful. The campus is coverage in this beautiful forest/woods that has an almost rainforest feel to it because the trees are covered in this thick amazingly green moss stuff. The buildings just kind of blend into the trees, the air smells absolutely wonderful, the dorms from the outside looked pretty nice, the location is amazing, and there is a walking path right from the campus to the ocean/beach. It's just incredible. Olympia is a really nice little city, and the surronding forests/national parks/mountains/ocean are all fantastic. Seattle is an amazing city and I have fallen completely in love with it in about 30 seconds (or rather in the 2 hours I spent wandering the city this afternoon). I have to tell you that it is just super (and yes I did say super) to see the ocean and the snow-capped mountains all in one glance out the window. So, on looks alone I've fallen in love with this place Evergreen, and on both looks and what I learned about the people and the atmosphere of the area by wandering around today I know Seattle is a great place where I would be very happy (might possibly move to after college, but that's a ways away) and where I will enjoy visiting often on trips from Olympia. So, I have high hopes for my meetings at the school tom. and am very excited to continue exploring. And then of course on thursday I'll get to Greensboro N.C. to see Sarah and Kristi, hell mother fucking yeah! So excited!
Well, I'm done for now...
