Week One

I never thought I'd see the day where I would be a freshmen in college, for the longest time it seemed so far away. Now today as I am sitting in the corner of Starbucks working on Geography homework, I can now say that week one of my college experience is in the books.
On a side note, Starbucks on campus was not a smart idea, reason one being that I am here way to much, and reason 2 is my bank account is running dry. Mom and Dad if you are reading this, PRETTY PLEASE CAN YOU SEND ME SOME MONEY!
I called my cousin yesterday and she asked me how I was doing away at school, my answer; I'm right where I belong.
Classes are amazing, my teachers are so caring and strive to make sure we understand. I'm enjoying all my classes and we talk a lot about life and experiences. I love it.
Western does Week of Welcome every year the first week of school, so during the whole week events would be planned to make this first week so enjoyable. My favorite event was Valley Ballyhoo, which is this huge club fair where you get to sign up for clubs and see what there is to do on campus

The week was basically finished off this past Thursday with Relient K, I grew up listening to this band but surprisingly I was not standing in front of them at this concert. I was actually across the street at the White House watching Pitch Perfect with some of my great friends and my Cat Camp Leaders. It was a great night that was followed by a trip to the Waffle House that should be a blog post all on its own. But I'll save that story for when I can tell it in person. We all needed some real food, college campus food does not offer much, and after eating yogurt and granola every day, you need some good ole food.  I'll quickly explain this awesome trip, three girls, three guys, one jeep, flashing street lights, Waffle House and it being 12 am. Lets just say there wasn't any room in the back for four college kids, with We Can't Stop playing in the car.  We get to Waffle House, we order way to much food while six of us are crammed in a 4 person booth. My long legs didn't agree with that. I had my coffee and we laughed more than anything, not to mention I contemplated stealing the Waffle House coffee cup, I didn't but you best know my college bucket list was started that night and it is at the top of my list.

Thursday was a very stressful day for me, I have decided that I will be changing my major to Recreational Therapy, and I honestly believe that is what I should have majored in, in the beginning. Being able to stay active and help others using movement/exercise to improve life sounds like the best job to me. So in the spring semester I will be changing to Rec. Therapy. So Thursday I decided to drop my Intro class to Communication Disorders and add Human Society, I don't know what went through my mind, but when i switched class and talked to the professor, I found out that in the two days I missed in Human Society, I was already way behind. I am a worry bug and this little incident ended with me crying to momma on the phone, and in the end I switched it back to my Intro class. For now I am going to stick with my communication disorders class and stick it out, and if the lord calls me to stay with this major and not switch to Rec. Therapy I am going to listen. To make Thursday better my best friends and I decided to make a trip to the pet store and play with puppies. I might make this a weekly event. 

My week ended Friday with only two classes, getting out at 12, chickfila, and hanging out at my friends cabin, and to top it off I went to WINDY GAP for Leaders Weekend. That post will be up this Sunday for sure. 

Now I am off to Day of Service, Happy Saturday :)
