I can’t believe that my freshman year is almost over. This year has flown by at a ridiculous speed. I feel like it was just last week that I moved in here, and I’m getting ready to pack up my stuff in a few days. I’ve already scheduled my classes for next semester (and it looks crazy by the way) and found a roommate and room. Katie Fix and I were able to get into Berg, which is one of the nicer dorms on campus. It’s unfortunately located away from all of my classes, but almost all of the dorms are, so I figured it didn’t really matter. I’m excited about my elective classes, I’m taking Advanced Composition and then a dance class. That English class is a 400 level class, and I’m pretty sure it’s going to be really hard, but I’m excited about becoming a better writer, even if I won’t be doing very much of it in the future. My last final is on May 14th, and I leave for Colorado with Bethy the next day. We’re stopping by St. Louis that night on our way to see some friends, and then I’ll be visiting Nate in Denver before flying back home on the 20th.
When I get back my only goal is to find a job. Between the wedding, junior high summer camp and a trip to Mexico with Katie, I’m hoping to find one that can give me a lot of hours while I’m home, but won’t be too mad that I want to take the time off for those trips. The wedding is fast approaching and I’m getting pretty excited about it. Liz seems to have everything under control, and I’m looking forward to helping her put the finishing touches on everything when I fly out there at the end of June. It’ll also be good to see a lot of family members that I haven’t seen in a while.
There’s not a whole lot going on out here right now. The weather has been ridiculously nice, and I’ve even gotten a bit of a tan, if you can believe that. You tend to forget how hot it can get out here when you’ve come out of a sub-zero winter. Everyone is pretty much just getting ready for finals and making plans for this summer. It’s become very clear to me that I didn’t completely think through the going so far away to school thing. I’m going to be sad when I have to be away from my new friends for so long. If I lived in the Midwest, I could visit people but instead I’ll be reconnecting with old friends, which will be nice- but it’ll be interesting to see how that all works out since we’ve all changed over the course of the last year.
I’ll keep you updated if anything exciting happens in the next few weeks.
Love and miss----
