It's funny... because at first I was really upset that I didn't get into BYU, but now I think it was a good thing I didn't. College is the time of your life where you should be able to decide what's right from wrong, since after all, it's probably the first time you get the freedom of living without parents. I like the mixture of LDS and non- LDS since i've been living around that my whole life. Granted, my school's LDS population is about 80% of the campus, but I love it. I can honestly say that I haven't really gotten that homesick. I may have once, but i've met so many awesome people here and i've been so busy that I haven't found the time to actually get homesick. I may miss 3 or 4 people from home but that's about it. College is just really great. WAY better than high school that's for sure.
Classes are going pretty well. I'm trying really hard to get a good GPA just like my senior year in high school. So far, so good. As a matter of fact i'm in the library right now trying to be a good student :). When I first got to college, the size of the classes were a little overwhelming because i've never been a class with more than around 30 students before. I am now taking a class that has about 250 students and a teacher who needs to use a microphone for his lectures. I'm used to it now but at first like was like WOAH! I LOVE my hip hop class. It's off campus so I carpool with my friend I met in my Sociology class. We learn the coolest dances and that class seriously gives you a confidence boost, not gonna lie. It's really fun, and so far i've learned 3 great dances. I show/teach them to my roommate Vanae all the time so she can dance with me.
I just love the freedom of college. During the first 2 weeks of school my friends and I took midnight IHOP/Walmart runs just for the the heck of it! It's so much fun out here and i'm so glad I chose to come here. I'll try and update more when I remember. I think its pretty sad that I haven't even put pictures up of my dorm yet. I need to get on that...
