So Sophomore Year

Well, this whole summer I dreaded coming back to school. I didn't want to be in Alabama. I didn't want to live in the Science Center (I spend 16 hours a week in there, just in class, not including homework or anything). I didn't want to eat in the caf. I didn't want to walk past people I know everywhere I want to go. I didn't want to sit at a desk and work. I didn't want to study.

Buttt now that I'm back - it's so great. I walked into my first class on the first day (Biblical Perspectives), and I knew like 3/4 of the people. And my second class (Organic 2) - same thing. And my third, on the second day, (Microbiology) - guess what? same. And my Fitness Swimming class, also know as the Samford Swim Team, is SO fun. Three of my friends, Lars, Hunter, and Jenn, are in it and we have so much fun. Last practice, Hunter high-fived me, Lars, and Jenn after every lap. And I literally laughed all the way down the pool every single lap I swam (which was probably a total of 16 laps). They said that I am the captain, and often refer to me as that, which is funny, because I am the youngest of the four of us. It is the first fun class I've had, and I freaking love it.

Also, I kind of like knowing 80% of the people I pass on the way to class - that are in the caf - that are at the gym. It's sort of empowering. And fun. Haha.

Hmm. As far as RAing is going... That's a little iffy. Sometimes I do a good job.. but sometimes.. I break every rule there is. But those are just words.

Ohhh. Courtney, Kaleigh, Sarah Waller, and I went to my parents' house, with Michael, for Labor Day Weekend. We hung out with David and Michael all weekend, and it was literally the first time since I went to school last fall - and since Nate and I broke up - that I had fun at home. We went fishing, we went to the beach, we went swimming, and we hung out at Michael's house until late in the night. It was suppper fun. Ultimate tanning time. My pfd and shorts tan ended up getting burned to a crisp.. but is now slightly tan.

I feel like all I ever do is study. Organic II and Microbiology, and their 3 hour labs, take up soooo much time. Stupid. And it is hard living by myself on one side of campus, when everyone else lives on the other side of campus, especially because they don't all live together, so I have to visit them separately, unless we make elaborate plans to all get together.

Oh, on that note, last Friday was Kaleigh's birthday, so we all got together, made dinner, and then ended up making a fort, in which we all fell asleep. I woke up at 5 and everyone except Courtney and Kaleigh had left. That floor is a lotttt harder than it looks.

That was so long. I'm sure there are more things that have happened in the past two weeks, but that's enough for now.
