Tuesday Sept 30

Monday I missed my first class.

I misread my schedule. And then I was late to my 2nd class...cause I couldn't find it for nothing. Then came history of christianity and film liturature class (which my roomate is taking too). They both had funny teachers. The history teacher told us he had specifically planned in college not to be a teacher or this other profession. ha. But it seems he'll be good.

I got a call today from (Daisy) a friend from high school that I saw at the bash. She told me she needed a roomate too and the dean had given her my name! How bizarre. So We're trying to work out a way for her to move into my room and my roomate to move into CONARD! Muuaaaaaaaaaahahahaha. What it sounds like though is that my roomate isn't so sure she wants to move out now. But the dean said that she got something rolling and we're prolly gonna have to keep it rolling. Cause there's a ton of move arounds planned because of her I guess.

My books haven't arrived yet...and I have homework in all 4 classes. I'll probably be spending alot of time in the bookstore.

I had to get up at 7:30 today. My alarm had died in the middle of the night. Luckily i'm a light sleeper and heard it, dying. I took a nap after the class...about 9:45 - 12:55...my next class was at 1:00. Good thing I live close! My alarm didn't even go off either. I get AM and PM wrong sometimes.

At lunch I met 2 more girls, both named Jenny and live in Foreman Hall with me.

And I forgot to mention these weird boards that are so popular...I'll put a picture up. A ton of people use them.

Sunday the 28th

Slept in till noon (woken up alot though).

Went to the Welcome Back Bash and signed up for the Spanish Club and the Business Club, but was harassed the whole time to join the "Booster Club". I got a free dinner of pizza and cotton candy there. I humiliated myself trying to enter a drawing by popping balloons with darts...3 out of 6 went straight into the ground...my gosh.

I saw lots of people I recognized...I'll list just cause:
Cindy, Natalie, Amy, Johnathan Kirkwood, Trent Wade, Johnny Long, and quite a few others from my class and high school and 1 from grade school.

Joselyn left early but Katie and Roxanna came back to the dorm with me to play Last Word. We were laughing just about the whole time.

Then I came back to my room to play my game some more. And check my myspace. And Mobsters.

OH
While playing on the computer after I woke up, I got a call. They asked if I still needed a roomate...I was like no I'm all settled in. I hang up and tell my roomate about it and she says "that's weird". 1 minute later I get a call from the dean. She explains to me that yesterday my roomate told her she wanted to move in with another girl she saw and hadn't seen in years. She told me that my roomate should have told me by now. PSH. So long story short, I will probably be getting kicked out of my dorm by Thursday and moved to CONARD, the old, gross dorm.


Welll that sums it up i guess...I'm waiting for new episode of CHUCK to download, it's gone up to 279kB/s!
Actually it's done. ITS DONE!

Cya later.

Sat. Sept 27th

So I have figured out that I will be woken up every morning by my roomate. It's very annoying cause I put on my eye mask and earplugs, and she still gets me woken up every time. Not looking forward to the rest of the term with her.

But I went to church with Joselyn today, heard extremely loud music coming from some service going on in the music department. As we walked to lunch we decided we were going to meet someone new. We got our lunch and saw a girl sitting alone and sat with her. She's Katie. Minutes later another girl came by that knew Joselyn and sat with us. She's Roxanna. I think they're both over like 25...kinda weird.

None of us had plans, so we decided to go to a park to hike or something. We chose Lewis and Clark Trail Park...it was like 45 minute drive. Walking to go meet Katie and Roxanna at their apartments to go to the park...I witnessed my first car accident. A big truck slammed into a car I think was a neon. MAN, there was smoke and lots of particals that flew into the air. The trunk got crunched almost to the back window and the truck got a pretty big dent on the bumper. And while we were looking at them we realized that the girls apartments were right on the other side of the accident. Within like 2 minutes they had police cars, a small firetruck, and an ambulence there. LOL, nobody was hurt at all...hm.

When we finally got out we went on a lil road trip to the park. We got there and walked around this big circle and reazlized...we were in a campsite. Took us a long time to figure out that the trail was on the other side of the street. We walked there, and found it to be CLOSED. We went back and looked for another trail nearby...nothingclosest one would be like another 45 minutes farther from Walla Walla. So we swung on the swings and talked and took pictures. Then we drove 45 minutes back to Walla Walla.

After dinner Katie came with us to the dorm and we played SKIP-BO. Joselyn and her didn't know how to play, it was really funny. We hope to play BS soon haha. When Katie left, we went and walked around outside and found this steep hill that the boys were running up and down yesterday. We ran up it and sat around for awhile, then we went to the volleyball game (Natalie from the church was playing). I don't think Joselyn was into it, but I think she stayed for me hehe. Sweet I know. Then we went to my room and watched some Office and The Love Guru.

Joselyn and I have been talking about starting a Tennis club haha. We want to be the presidents so we can have that title. "Oh you need to talk to one of the presidents"...it'd be us. Aaanyways..i'm not gonna be here long, so I don't think it'd work out.

Tomorrow morning we were supposed to go use the treadmill, buuuuuut it's 2:40am right now... I will be tired, it's a no go. Hopefully soon the 4 of us want to go apple picking too. I found a whitewater rafting place and hope to convice them to go.

Tomorrow is the sign up day for clubs. I'm pretty excited about it, there's one club that you enter to win brand new computers and some toyota car. It looks old but shiny. I wouldn't want it for anything but cash or satsfaction of really helping someone out by giving it to them. (Booster Club)

Goodnight for me!

First Week

So after Dad, Charla, and Zach came with me to Walla Walla, helped me settle in, and dropped me off...I got extremely lonely. I would ask my roomate if she wanted to play a game, play tennis/raquetball, or go to lunch/dinner. She always showed enthusiasm, but when ever the time came to do it...she didn't want to...but she's been hanging out with her friends alot. I don't know if she doesn't like me...or if it's something else.

We went to Wal-mart and bought a phone...(the number is 509-524-6792 in case you're interested)...misc. stuff, and GUPPIES. I got a red and a greenblueyellowred one. Each of hers took like 2 minutes to catch..mine took like 5 seconds. Seriously.

SO, Thursday night I was playing a game on the computer and got really bored. After checking out anything on the internet, I started to get deperessed that I have nobody to hang out with...I spent all day by myself as well as the night before. I decided to just go knock on a random persons door and ask if they wanted to play a game. So I did, and she was all excited haha. So was I. Her name is Joselyn.

We played Last Word and made plans to play tennis which we did today and watched American Gangster in my room a while after. Tomorrow is church, and she's gonna go with me! I was worried that I'd be going alone...After she left tonight I watched What Happens in Vegas and my roomate came in in the middle of it. She actually finished it with me instead of going on her laptop and watching the OC which she watches all the time. I watch stuff on the computer too though when I'm bored. The college network brings me lots of choices in movies and TV shows. They play instantly for me when I click them! I will cherish it...

Aaaaand this morning I got woken up quite a few times, 2 of them being employers! You probably already know. But they are both office assistant jobs. One at the enrollment office and the other at plant services (don't know what they do there). Interviews are on Mon. I hope to death one of them works out!!

I also found out that I can take food out of the cafeteria...I was pretty excited about that cause I don't eat much at one time, and like to snack alot during the day. And mom secretly put a pink dog and cat beanie baby in my suitcase cause I'm not allowed to have animals in the dorm, haha. I put them both in front of my monitor. So cute!

Soo..it's 1:45 and I have church in the morning...I'll probably die...so know that I overcame 1 obstacle...making a friend.
