The start of a huge adventure…
Alright. Are you ready to hear about my eventful day? So I had great plans to get up early and move down here and be productive. You know turn in job applications, get unpacked and all that jazz. But by the time I really got up and moving, helped my cousin register for classes, get my car packed up in the rain it was almost noon. Abby and I jumped on the freeway and it was raining really hard. We could hardly see in front of us and it made me a little bit nervous to drive my car in the rain on the freeway. So we stopped by the salon where my mom was working that day and chilled for a little bit hoping for the rain to let up. Well it started raining harder and by the time we were ready to go we were worried that we wouldn’t make it to my apartment before the office closed, leaving us no where to sleep. But no worries,I drove fast. Really fast. In fact I didn’t know that my car could go that fast…
We made it to my apartment building thirty minutes before the office closed. My apartment was ready to be moved into except they didn’t have a key to my apartment for me. So someone let us in and Abby and I started moving all my things up the stairs and down the hall to 5G, where I will be residing for my duration at school. Tired we ate the sandwiches we had packed that morning, set up a few things up and then left again to turn in applications. I was able to turn in almost all of them and felt very productive doing so. When I stopped at Pizza Factory to turn one in there I ran into the Ellwood's and talked to Lindsey and Chase for a minute. How fun it was to see them! After a bubblegum shake from iceberg, a stop to Target to buy a shower curtain, a diet coke, and mini pancakes for breakfast because all my dishes were not here yet, we finally crashed. At the door to my bedroom that is. I had locked my bedroom door because we had to leave the apartment unlocked due to the fact that I don’t have a key yet. Well the door didn’t want to open. We probably sat at my door trying to get the stupid thing open for 15 minutes. Abby being the little thinker that she is opened it with a bobby pin. In our PJs, diet coke in hand we started a movie that we didn’t finish and called it a night. The first night in my apartment. :) What a day.
My room is pretty much set up. Things are looking pretty cute if I might say so. I still need to load up my fridge because food it probably a good idea. I’m feeling good about things, but nervous like any freshman who has just moved away from home. I just keep telling myself I can do this, because pretty much, I can do this! I am going to be great at this whole college living away from home thing, I know I will.
