First Day of School

This morning I woke up and went to work like usual but today was different cause I was leaving early to go to school. I was so nervous not really knowing what to expect. Once I left work I was going to catch the light rail to campus but I couldn't find the exit and I was getting nervous. I eventually found it and some girls in the parking lot totally helped me out and I made it to class early. THANK YOU!!
My two classes went great. I ended up meeting Emily in my first class who was an angel. After class she showed me around. She took me to get my books and we ate lunch together and went to our last class together. Overall the day went great. I'm really excited for new classes and a new school. School with out Janna and Mallory though wasn't the same I miss you girls!!!!

So on another note holy cow is ASU different I have totally been in a bubble....a bubble that I miss.
1. First of all walking to class I was soaking in my own sweat it was disgusting it was SO hot I don't get how people do it.... oh never mind I know they don't wear white insulators and girls wear anything and everything.
2. Students walk to class smoking... they have ash trays in the outdoor sitting areas.
3. You have to put your backpack in a locker before entering the bookstore cause students steal the books.
4. Sororities and fraternities. They are everywhere!!!

Congratulations on starting at ASU! It might be hot now but think about how much better the winters will be there then at BYU! :-) How are your classes going so far? That's great that you already made some friends on campus!

Congratulations on your first day and on asking for help finding your way. Good job making friends. I'm so excited that your going to be able to finish school....it is truly a dream come true for me. Crazy to think that I still have to wait like 8 years before Takoma gets to the point of being able to graduate. Love you sweetie!
