I'm alive!

so just in case you were nervous about that, 

i survived my first 2 days of classes!

First day: i had all 5 classes, got all 5 syllabi, which means i saw a flash view of the entire semester.

let me tell you, it was overwhelming & very stressful. 

most of my classes are 10 times bigger than the ones i had in high school

so it seemed like i'd never meet anyone/feel totally alone.

but never fear, my second day was much better!

I had my first engineering discussion session, where i met some other aspiring

engineers/did not feel totally alone.

here's a few things that have happened since my frantic list of 17:

1. I set up my printer! see?

2. I made a friend all by myself! (you know you are not the typical social butterfly when you start conversations with "oh i can help you set up your school email on your smartphone! Here's the domain...server...etc.")

3. MY BFF CAME TO VISIT ME! here she is.

4. Carolyn appropriately decorated my desk/laptop:

5. I watched the sun rise!

6. JESSE VISITED ME!!! as you can see i was a little pumped. and he stayed with me all day :) :) :)

7. i went to the lakefront with him!!

8. I took a college selfie in the dorm! (actually i took a few. shhh)

9. I successfully locked myself out of my dorm & my lovely roommate came & saved me. She rocks. That was bound to happen, I'm glad it's out of the way & I can get on with my life.

10. I bought engineering paper! yes, there is such a thing.

11. I wrote a paper for my english class basically saying how much i hate english. I know what you're thinking. already jules? yes, i just did that.

So i'm surviving here, successfully staying up later than my roommates & being annoying with the lights on. ah well, tis the college life.
