Officially BYU Status

SOOOOOO. This is it. I am officially living in BYU. I've been here for three days now. Wednesday was moving in day. Now I finally have a cute room!! :) It was fun to put up all my new stuff and create my space from scratch...granted, that space was very limited, but hey, whatcha gonna do (whatcha gonna do when they come for you?) Pics will follow shortly but I'm still getting the hang of...wait for iiiiiiiiiiit....this new laptop! WOOO!

Indeed, I am very adulty. :) I now have a laptop, an all sports pass (GOOOOO COUGARS!!!!!!!! Gotta go buy the game day shirts!) and my very first credit card. Despite all these extremely adult-like items, I have just gone through a New Student Orientation which felt like a mix between EFY and a school field trip to the museum. There were some dry moments, but also some really fun times!

I was extremely blessed. We were assigned "Y Groups" at random, so basically I found myself thrown in with about twenty people I'd never met and was pretty much assigned to be with them all day. I don't know how I got so fortunate, but I made friends in that group pretty fast! Real friends too, that I can be stupid around and they don't walk away. So that's always nice. :) That experience has made me feel a bit more confident about making friends and fitting in here.

There's so much to say, but I don't even know where to begin or how to say it. For all those of you with deep wonderings (You know, all three of you. You know who you are.) Yes. Yes I've been on a date. But before you go crazy and do the victory dance of "I told you so" let's just all realize that this isn't something we should be getting used to. So get down off your high horse (or high My Pretty Pony).

It is probably evident from how scattered and sporadic this post is that I'm kind of tired. I had all these plans about doing crunches then going to sleep but ended up talking to my roommate until past three in the morning. But I guess that's how life goes sometimes. And that can for sure be nice.
