This year, like last year I helped with moving in the underclassmen with moving into the dorms, but this year at JTC. Which at first I was hesitating even doing it again because I didn't know anyone, but figured I was given the opportunity to meet new people then, which was a plus. So I ended up going and met some really cool people; the hockey team was helping us and they were fun to be around, (dancing and playing football) making the long day go by faster. So being a roadie this year was by far WAY better than last year!
So far this school year has been going really well, although, keeping me very busy. I found a job and currently work at the school bookstore, which is amazing; I get to pick my hours when I want to work and fit it around my schedule, so it works out great! Which was my main concern when I was looking for a job because a normal job you really can't decide when you want to work and if you only can work an hour out of the day and this job I can do that!!!! I also am taking notes for a student and creating posters for some clubs on campus so that extra cash is definately a huge blessing because I sure need the money; who knew you had to pay your landlords for living in their house.hahaha
As far as my classes go they have been fun, some challenging, but all in all not that bad which is surprising because I have 17 credits. But I guess we will see later in the semester if that stays true or not because it has already been overwhelming at times. I am also involved in AIGA which is a club for Graphic Designers, photo club, and CRU. So with work, school and extra activities, my schedule is pretty packed these days!
Living off campus has been amazing and loving EVERY second of it. Don't get me wrong, I had a great time in the dorms, but there is just something about living in a house that is WAY better. I mean I can cook REAL meals other than ramen and other microwaveable "dinners", I have my own room, I share a house with 4 AMAZING girls and we have some rowdie times let me tell you! I couldn't have asked for better roommates!
This last weekend I had a lot of fun with my roommates, Friday I went to EC with my roomie Natalie and went shopping and met up with my Dad in Osseo and then came back and then went over to my friend Alex's house for a house warming party and that was really fun, Saturday we threw my roomie Lauren a birthday party at our house and it was sooooo much fun!!!! We had dance parties going on inside and outside, expresso shots/energy drinks, a fire, hookah, and omg it was just amazing!!!!
Then today we had a fire in our kitchen, because Natalie had put aprons in the bottom section of our oven and forgot to take them out and Hannah did not know about it, so she turned on the oven and started the whole oven on fire and we had to use our fire extinguisher (which we wanted to store in the closet because we thought it looked ugly where it was placed in the kitchen; good thing we didn't move it). And ironically enough, our landlord Dave the day before just out in new fire alarms that talk to you and tell you where the fire is...we now know for sure that they work!
Phew! that was a lot, I should start blogging on a regular basis so it's not all at once.haha yea right like that will ever happen.
~peace out
