Longest Post Ever!




Well I’ve been in Nashville for almost a month and a half. I’ve talked to some of you but I haven’t talked to others of you. So I thought Id write this to let “yall” know what I’ve been up to. So here we go!

Major: I’m currently double majoring in Law Justice and Society and Theater.

Classes: My favorite classes are 2 Society in the Law classes and a theater class. But I love all of my classes! The professors are wonderful. My least favorite class is my Bible class mainly because no one will answer my teacher’s questions except me.

Dorm: I’m living in a suite style dorm. We lucked out because normally each suite has 8 people in it but we only have4 people. Because one room is a storage room for the RA and the other was for the exchange students who left a week after school started.

My roommate is Jennifer and we get along really well.

Favorites:

1. I LOVE going to Sanctuary. It is a church service on Thursday nights. It is only worship music. And I love going to it!

2. The library. There are huge bay windows overlooking beautiful trees. Love to go study and do my homework there.

3. Maggie Moo’s is an ice cream shop. A large group of up us go there at least once a week. Unfortunately Ice cream= freshman 15….. But I love getting cinnamon ice cream with caramel mixed in.

4. Dodge ball. The campus life department hosted a dodge ball tournament. They brought in a huge cage and bleachers into our square. Each team was themed and there were teams like the Seinfeld team, dead celebrates, The Indianapolis Cults (which was a weird cult pastor thing), and the Munsters from space jam. Here’s a video of it. It really long but if you watch part of it you’ll get the gist of the event.

5. The theater Department went to see Wicked so that was cool.

What’s ahead for me?

· A awesome concert with Keith Urban, Taylor Swift, Brad Paisley and a bunch of other big country artist.

· Working with the theater department in plays.

· Working out at the gym so that I can eat ice cream without gaining 20million pounds

· Working with Second Harvest food Bank for my community organizing class. Did you know that 1 in 8 Americans suffer from hunger? And that through Second Harvest your one dollar donation can buy someone 4 meals? Yes 1 $ = 4 meals. More about this later.

Interesting Facts:

o My cast is off!!!!!! YAY! Its been almost 3 months.

o Our wall is leaking. Yes our wall. LEAKING. There are bubbles of water bulging out of our wall and when they pop strange fungus is forming. Its really disgusting! They think its because of the air conditioners on the other side of the wall. They were supposed to be fixing it but so far all they have done is work outside. Not on our wall. My roommate is sleeping on the floor because the wall is next to her bed and it leaks on her hopefully this will be fixed soon

o No I don’t have a boyfriend yet. And I probably wont anytime soon.

o It rains here. A lot. And I left my rain boots at home….Silly me.

o James Marsden lives right next to our school. He is the actor who plays Cyclops in Xmen and the prince in Enchanted. I have yet to see him but apparently he jogs around campus.

Things I miss:

-Home cooked food. The cafeteria is good. But it just not home. And almost everything is fatting.

- Fruits and Vegetables. I’m just not getting enough of them here.

- Air that is not humid. The humidity is annoying. My hair poofs and food goes steal.

- Mountains. There aren’t any here.

- Sunsets…. All you can see here is trees.

- My Dogs

- Surprisingly I don’t miss my bed. I actually really like the one I have here. Its comfortable. But that might be because im dead tired every night.

- Of course All of you.

Well I love all of you!! And I miss you SO SO SO much!!!! You have no idea how much I miss home. Hopefully I will be updating this blog normally now that I have settled in so that you can know what’s going on in my life. Sorry it was so long this time.

Love you all!
