Doing Nothing

Well, I'm waiting for Michaela to wake up so we can go do our Historic Pres project, so I'm going to go ahead and blog. I just finished a moderately successful XC season. I spent a good deal of it injured but still managed to place way higher on the team than I expected. I'm pretty pissed I finished my season with a 30:02 8k time. But considering I only ran it 3 times on some of the nastiest courses around, I'm not going to lose sleep over it. It's XC. Indoor doens't start for a while so I'm trying to take this week completely off and then cross train next week and then start lightly running again the week after.
Oh, by the way. CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS!

My classes are going pretty well. I'm probably going to end up with two A's and two B's which isn't too bad. I'm taking intensive spanish, world civ I, Music Theory II and Theory II skills, and...something else next semester. Can't remember at the moment. I really wanted to take the intro to Logic course but it got filled by sophomores. Hmph!

I'm slowly, and by slowly I mean very slowly making new friends. The XC team is still where I'm happiest and I feel like I belong the most. I've never felt so solidly part of a team before. It's hard to beat that.

But now I'm going to go get a pumpkin spice chai tea latte and do my project.

Morning of day II, well afternoon of day two since it is in fact, after noon. I missed breakfast and ALMOST missed my meeting with my adviser this morning. Our alarm didn't go off. But my adviser is really, really cool. I like her bunches. We went to this drug, alcohol, rape meeting after the meeting with our advisers which was less cool. They had these videos that I could have done much better, but whatever.

I'm actually ALONE in my room. It's great. It's almost a manageable temperature but definitely not comfortable yet.

But I'm going to go record a video for someone. I'll post later.

The College Chronicals PART I?

Or something like that.

As Aleina reminded me, I said I would try to blog in college. Maybe it'll be my little way of keeping part of my old (very old) routine.
I'm not sure how I feel about college yet honestly. Like, it's good to be here, but I'm not really comfortable yet. I'm honestly pretty homesick. It's so hot here too. You guys know how well I do with the heat. I think I'm going to die. DIE. It's so disgusting here.

I really need to find a place where I can just BE BY MYSELF. It's great having roommates, but I want to be alone sometimes! Or, actually, rather frequently. I'm just used to spending most of my day in silence or at least with an absence of people jabbering. Now I'm surrounded by 1000 freshmen who are all so excited to be here. Bleh.

I'm really not sure if I'd have been happier at JMU or UMW at this point. They seem very similar to me at this point in time. At least at JMU I'd be closer to home. I think this is the first time I've really considered the idea that I may have made the wrong choice in colleges. I don't want to make that judgment for a while yet. Like I said. Just feeling lonely and homesick even though I'm surrounded by hundreds of people.

I think I'm going to head to bed for the night though. Need to get up early tomorrow to do more bonding stuff.
