Changes...

I'm sitting here right now at 8:30am sipping a cup of coffee from my new coffee maker here in my new dorm room at my new school. After being here for almost 24 hours now I have already seen many ways that this year will be different from last.

1. There are boys in my hall
--im not a fan of this change...i liked living with girls last year

2. "gay is ok"
--two guys across the hall are gay and like to spend time in my room b/c they are good friends of my roommate. fine. they sit and talk about how amazing this new church that they are going to is and they just love the worship that goes on....and its odd to me because first of all IWU does not condone homosexuality, but I have never gone to a church that did either. and these boys are very open about it....

3. my room is tiny
--despite having a "skinny room" last year, it was much more spacious than my room this year...

4. I MIGHT ACTUALLY GET ALONG WITH MY ROOMMATE THIS YEAR!
--she is a cute, short little blondie...very bubbly personality...different from me, but something that wont drive me nuts like my loud, obnoxious, inconsiderate roommate last year...and i will leave her description at that...

5. I dont get to take any nursing classes this semester :(
--i have to take all gen eds first semester and apply to nursing for the spring....this means i will have no motivation to study because the subject matter will bore me....hopefully i can still build a solid GPA to start off here at BSU though...

6. there are so many choices when it comes to food!
--at IWU you had three choices....nasty, microbe-infested buffet, pizza place, and the "wildcat"....here there is a food court in my very own residence complex AND about 4 other food courts in other residence complexes that i can eat at

well thats all i can think of from the past 24 hours...but i have a whole two more days before i even start classes! For now though, i just want my sleeping schedule to return to "college life mode" meaning i dont get tired at 10pm and then wake up at 8am and not be able to get back to sleep!
