Hello again,
As you know from the last post I am here at college at OBU. It is fun! I haven't been able to do much stuff off campus because of my car but I love it here! For those wondering about my car, I got campus safety to jump it yesterday so I could put a check in the bank. Worked fine, just no air conditioning because I didn't want to push my luck. I love my classes and I can't wait to get my books so I can be more productive in them. I do have them ordered so I will get them sometime next week.
My roommate is cool, she does a lot of the campus activities. She is a morning person and I'm not. So, she said I am a sleepy head when I woke up at 11.30am. Notice the AM, it is not my record of 4.00PM. She is cool though, I hope she thinks I am too.
The food here is suprisingly good. I love the sandwhich line because it reminds me of SubWay. The burgers are pretty awesome too. They have an ice cream machine and I keep wanting it but I also keep telling myself that I don't need it.
Ok, I am getting tired of writing because it is my day off even though I should go look for a job here.
Ok! I will write more often and hopefully it won't be short blips.

OBU
Hello there.
It has definitely been awhile since I have been on here so please forgive me! I am at college now, specifically in my dorm room which is nice. At first it was really small, but then once we both got everything put away, it is much better. My iPod is somewhere! My roommate is really nice and I think that we are hitting it off. We have a lot of the same interests and she has the Big Bang Theory theme song as her ring tone!
The internet here is wireless and I didn't know that until we bought an ethernet cable. Come to find out, that it is easier to connect when you have both wireless and LAN. Last night of course everybody was trying to get on so it took a few tries to log on.
We are not required to go to everything at welcome week but we are encouraged to go. This morning I forgoI t there was breakfast! Oh well, I had a good shower and some nice hot English breakfast tea. That tea was very beneficial because they have the air conditioning on in the shower room! The showers are pretty cool because they have a little add-on to them so you don't necessarily have to dress in the actual stall. There is also a little shelf to put your clothes and towel so they don't get wet. The only thing is that I am glad I brought shower shoes!
Since I didn't have breakfast, I am a little hungry and lunch is at 11.30 in the GC. I may have a little snack to tie me over until then.
Like tradition, I have to wear the Beanie. It is very hard to keep on when your hair is in a pony!
My bed is a loft bed so right now it is the height of a regular bunk bed and getting up and down was a little challenging at first. The mattresses are brand new so I slept really well last night. I don't know if it was fear of falling off or what, but I didn't move! I strategically put my alarm clock on my desk so I have to climb down to turn it off. Also, my new (it's a coffee pot but I use it for hot tea mainly)Tea pot is automatic and I set it last night to run at 8 and by the time I got out of the shower, it was done!
My car is in bad condition. My alternator that charges my new battery is extremely weak so it has a hard time charging. I went to the parking lot where they parked it yesterday and it started (Thank God!) and I moved it to a parking lot closer to WMU. Pray that I can drive for the next couple of weeks until I can get it fixed!
