The Journey Begins..

This is my first post as a college freshman!! How crazy is that!

I would've posted sooner but I was having problems with my internet (as well as a bunch of other things) but as of this afternoon everything has gotten sorted out! Thank you Jesus!

Move in yesterday went smoothly. Dad and I left the house just after 7am to drive up here and made it right on time for check-in.  We headed to my hall, checked in, got my key and it didn't work. haha. Nice start, right? Well these 3 fabulous ladies helped us move all of my stuff in and we started to get settled.

Here's a picture of the room before we started moving everything in

We managed to get almost all of my stuff situated before my roommate arrived.

 both got all of our stuff in it's place, took part in the sessions for the evening, ate a good meal in the dining hall and got to see part of the "Lucky 13" festivities. We were both exhausted and wanted to get to bed early.

During our Opening Ceremonies we got our motivational speeches, talks from the president and staff, and were told that our class has been dubbed the "Lucky Class of 20-13". We've got a lot to live up to! 

We also took our class picture during opening ceremonies. It was supposed to be taken outside of the steps of the beautiful Bailey Hall but it was raining so we took it inside on the stage. It was quite the experience cramming all of us up there! But it was fun non-the-less. 

Today we woke up bright and early and headed to breakfast. Ty had MAPP testing at 8:30 so she and a bunch of the other girls headed off for that and I went to test out my mail box (by the way, I'd LOVE mail ;) if you want my address email me!) then to the Academic and Computer Orientation. After that I registered for classes. I'll be taking 16 credit hours this semester.. Biology w/ lab, College Algebra, Brit Lit, the freshman class, Self-defense, and American Government. For some reason I can't take any business classes towards my major this semester. Unfortunately.  I was also able to fix my internet and passwords to all of my college stuff so now I can log into all of my accounts!

-- I saved this as a draft and went to buy my books before the bookstore closes. *jaw drops* you wouldn't believe how much books cost!! I had to put two back because I didn't have enough money in my account. Total was $593!! That wiped out every penny I had left from graduation money :'( 

In about an hour we'll be heading to another session and our Gold Refined By Fire ceremony. Tomorrow is full of more sessions, a movie and discussion and a freshman pool party at the president's house! Should be fun!

Since being here it's been confirmed that this is where I'm supposed to be. For now at least ;)

Let's just say God is in the details and He knows how much I love them.

tata for now! 

me.
