Greetings! It has officially been one week since I moved in....feels like I've been here for months! What have I been up to? Not sure, to be quite honest. The days just fly by down here. I have had 2 days of college classes, and they were pretty harmless! Then there was my archaeology class; the professor is in the middle of an archaeological dig in Canada (aren't teachers supposed to plan these things out?!), so she sent her husband to "sub" the class for her. Quite frankly, he had no idea what he was doing. Poor guy tried to go through the power point as well as he could, but I could still see the TA's chuckling behind their laptops in the front.
Last night I went to the first football game! We dominated, as expected. Of course my friends (yes, I have friends! Yay me!) and I were a little distracted by literally the THOUSANDS of kids running around on the grass end of the field. They were everywhere and hyped up on sugar and popcorn...out.of.control. Ummm I get that parents are proud of their Alma Mater, but I thought this was a college...? My friends and I also enjoyed observing what we dubbed as the resident creeper-looking bald middle-aged man who was "playing" with all the little kids...in a slightly creepy way. What made me chuckle was that when I asked my friends what we should call him, they replied "Uncle Chad". Shout-out to the bro-in-law whose name apparently conjures a creeper persona to college students.
Another Shout-out to my sissy for sending the first and only letter I have received in college! Made my day! The rest of my family...you're slacking. Although the line about "meeting hot guys" I read out loud to my guy friends who were around me...yeah, bad idea. Awkward chuckles ensued.
Good news, I think I found a church that I want to be a part of! I got a ride from an upper-classman and I really love it. Reminds me of my church back home, but with more college students. Also joining the Campus Crusade group on campus that is a part of the church. And let me just say, SO nice biking at 9:00 am on a Sunday morning...NO ONE is out due to...um...festivities that occurred the prior night...so while everyone was hungover in their bunk beds, I enjoyed an empty bike-path campus!
Tomorrow begins a new week where I will experience a full and complete week of classes and other festivities. Oh, and the heat here needs to go away. Miserable!
Until next time...Cam
