Hi...

So first of all, I'm sorry that I haven't posted anything in about 4 months. Summer is boring, therefore no good blog topics. But now that the school year has started again, get ready for blog season! Jeez, I hope at least someone bothers to check this; I wouldn't blame my readers if they didn't seeing as I'm the worst blogger ever. Well, I'm going to blog just in case I have some very loyal readers.

The semester has started and I have officially jumped into it (wearing my brand new TOMS, thanks mom). I am taking 15 hours, which shouldn't be too difficult as about 3 of those classes are GPA boosting classes (a.k.a. Intro to Fine Arts). But if the last year and the last few weeks have taught me nothing else, I need to be prepared to give about a 1,000% if I want to achieve anything, the least of which is the respect of the ones I love. So here I am, frantically packing up my room, my life so I can move into an apartment on campus, ready to spend my hours flipping madly through chapters and staining my fingers with highlighters.

Oh, yeah, for those of you that don't know (which is a few, since it happened 3 days ago...) I got an apartment! It happened so spur of the moment, I'm still trying to catch my breath. I came home from getting a pedicure with my big sister on Tuesday, and just called the housing office to get onto some sort of waiting list for a dorm, when the girl on the phone asked if I would mind living in Bobcat Village. Of course, I responded coolly and calmly with, "Mind? Are you kidding!? Can I move in today?!" So that was that. I signed a contract and got a roommate, all within about 48 hours. So as of this Sunday, I will be an official resident of San Marcos, Texas.

Almost needless to say, however, is that I am nervous. Texas State is, thankfully, very different from UTSA. But it's also a lot scarier. Although the population is about the same, Texas State seems to be bulging at the seams with the amount of people. I can't count how many times I've run full on into people because the Quad is so crowded. But it's also so great that when I get completely backwards lost, I can call Veronica or even KD, for directions to my next class easily. I even have a second home in Veronica's dorm, which is so great for crashing when I spend too much time at the library and can't make it the mile and half away to my apartment (yeah, the one downfall, it's a little far away...)

Anyway, the new year is beginning and I can feel the change, the first being that I actually really like this school. It's almost like this is my freshmen year, everything so new and ready to be experienced. Luckily, I am very willing candidate to jump on board for just about anything so I am incredibly excited just to immerse myself in this new little world at State. I hope you all are ready for some serious posting as I plan on keeping everyone updated on the goings-on so I won't be the only eager one. Okay, gotta finish packing. Hope you all have a great weekend!

P.S. Don't forget to keep me updated on everything as well, please!
