So we had 3 classes today and I was worried that they were gonna be super hard. But it was the complete opposite. We had art and sociology for 30 minutes each today because they let us go early! So what do we do with that free time? STUDY! And that's what we did. We did half of our math homework that isn't graded and read a little bit of our art book. I love having so much free time that I actually don't mind doing homework! So crazy! Art is going to be easy because it is an intro class and we've been taking art since 9th grade. So glad we'll have a lot of background info. Sociology, on the other hand, might be a little more challenging. Every week there is a group discussion for the whole class period which is 1 hour and 15 minutes about 3 questions. We'll see how that goes.
:Last night I woke up at 4 am with a horrible pain in my ribs. I was so scared that I wanted to wake up Cathy. Well her bed is chin level to me so when I walked over to her bed, we were face to face. I shook her and she jumped like never before! :) So funny! Of course I didn't know why my ribs were hurting so I made her stay up with me until I could fall asleep. I kept squeezing her hand through the bars in her bed. It eventually went away, but I have never been so scared in my life.
Now we just finished watching Glee :) Probably going to bed soon. Quiet in here since our roommate is never here at night, but that's fine with me. As long as she doesn't bring anyone back with her. Love ya!

Statistics in the Morning
We just back from our first statistics class and it was really easy. We actually took notes, but I kinda knew this stuff already even though I've never taken a statistics class before. I think it will tie in a lot with bio. We are done with our bio hw for tomorrow and we'll do math hw after art. One big plus is that our math hw is never collected or graded, just practice which I will need. I WILL do all of it anyway. :) Now it's time for art and sociology. Love ya!

First Day of Classes
Well, first day of one class. Today we had Bio at 9 am. We really didn't do anything except go over the syllabus. It was kinda funny because we went around the room introducing ourselves. I introduced myself, and said where I was from. Then Cath did the same and the prof was like, "Is there a reason you two have the same last name and are both from Salisbury?" Ugh isn't it obvious? lol Cath said, "We're twins." Then we got to talk with the people around us and it happened that the people across from us were cute guys. After class, we went to the commons and had lunch. Then we waited in the book pick-up line for 30 minutes for them to tell us that they aren't ready. Just great. We went back to our room and studied until the Telecom people came to fix our tv and phone. It took forever and they only fixed our phone. They said it was our tv that was the problem. So we will be on the look out for a new tv. But at least they told us what the problem was. Cath and I studied some more until dinner. Finally Cathy got her books and we went back to our room. Now we're watching Who wants to be a millionaire?. Hopefully tomorrow won't be too hard and I can finish my bio work. Gonna watch Bachelor Pad and message mommy throughout. lol We can watch it with her 15 miles away. Love ya!

Orientation is Too Much Fun!- not
For the last 3 days, we have done nothing, but team building sessions and seminars about college life and physical & mental health, and book discussions. But some of them were actually interesting. Thursday, we got to school at 6:15 and were unpacked by 9 am. It was not easy fixing the beds and making everything where we wanted it. We were so red afterwards between crying and sweating. After we go done we were bored so we waited until 10:30 for our room mate to move in. She brought a boatload of stuff. More stuff them us combined. But she seemed nice and her mom helped her move in. We had to leave for lunch and on our way to lunch, they had a lot of tables set up from businesses in the community. We got a sample of the McCafes and they were really good! Of course Cathy didn't like them, but I had hers too. After lunch we went to the class photo and met our orientation leader and group. We played those introduction games which I don't like, but it got worse. We sat in the grass for 1 1/2 hours and got a little sunburnt. Then we went to dinner and had a floor meeting. That was it for the night. We were so tired!
The next day was convocation and the book discussion for the summer reading. It wasn't really fun. The academic open house after was kinda interesting because we saw the different profs and what they specialized in. During lunch, we had a picnic and had the subject of the summer reading sign our books which was pretty cool. After lunch was suppose to be 3 more sessions, but it was only one for us. Instead of going to the 2nd & 3rd session, we left and went to Target. It's crazy how many little things we forgot. We dropped Mommy's car off and waited for her to get off work. Then, dinner. At 9pm we went to GUC After Dark, which was really fun. We got free Rita's ice and entered in a raffle. We also played bingo 3 times but didn't win anything :( But we met tons of new people and relaxed on a leather couch in the lounge. We went back to the dorm after 11pm. And we were out!
Today, we got up bright and early to see more seminars and sessions! YAY! The first sessions was really neat. It was our R.A.'s doing skits about college life. We went to lunch after the 2nd session and waited for 2 hours to take a survey...talk about a fun time. Two more sessions and we were done for the day. One thing about college is that people are a lot more free with the cussing. We went back to the dorm until 7pm when we saw the magician/comedian, Justin Kredible. It was HILARIOUS!!!! It was so much fun! Hopefully tomorrow will be just as fun since we don't have too many mandatory sessions.
