Starting College

I've been at EMU for 4 days now, and I've loved EVERY minute of it. So far, college is everything I dreamed it would be and more. Granted, classes havn't actually started yet, but like I said...so far... It's freedom, it's responsibility, it's opportunity, it's new friends, it's education, it's flexible, it's chance, it's missing memories, it's a foot in the door, it's amazing. My personal space is exactly how I want it to be and the people I share my new life with are such a fun crowd.

Orientation has been a blast. We've explored the city and the campus, met LOTS of new people, been fed really good food, been given so much free crap it's not even funny, and so much more. Birdman will forever make me laugh O_O --> O)))

I've had only a moment or two of sadness thus far. I REALLY miss my belly-bear and my pooty-butt. It's been hard not having an animal trip me everytime I take a step. Even though it was super annoying, I miss it just the same. (not that it's not nice to be animal-hair free!!) But other than missing my babies (animals and kids) I havn't even thought about wanting to go home. I love college, soooo much.

I have my first class tomorrow at 10 am, only a few short hours away. I'm not nervous at all, rather extremely excited!! Anyone who knows me well knows how much I've always missed school during the summer (it's so wrong, I know) and I can't wait to jump back into the swing of things, well, a new swing I guess. I can't wait to learn as much as I can :)
