College!!

Well the day finally came...the day I was waiting for all summer....anxious, excited, sad....the day when I became the true meaning of the word adult...this day was the day when I moved out of my house and headed for college. This day was two Fridays ago, and I couldn't write about it till now because at first I hated it here and all I wanted to do was go home, but I knew that would eventually change so I figured I would wait till I was in better spirits. I am now in the middle of my second week at UCF and although I don't exactly love it yet, I am getting into the swing of things.
My dorm room is finally all decorated and I am starting to feel settled, it also helps that I now know how to get to all of my classes. I have used my free time to explore the Orlando area and I found some really cool places, I went to IKEA, I found the nicest mall I have ever seen(Rachel they have an UO!), and of course there is the whole Disney area here too! I have also explored the campus and I really like it, but I have to get used to all of the walking!
My classes are really great, I have Anthropology, History of the Human Species, History of motion pictures, and Hospitality Management. My favorite classes are the motion picture class and my hospitality class, Yesterday in my movie class we watched a two hour silent film called Sunrise and I absolutely loved it(FYI it won the first ever Academy Award) and in my hospitality class we are doing a group research project and my team is doing dinner theater and we picked The Medieval Knights dinner, so that project should be alot of fun! I also joined the Campus Activity Board here at school and they plan all of the special events so hopefully that will turn out to be something fun to get involved with! Other than that I don't have anything else exciting to share so I will leave you with some pics of my dorm! Thanks for listening, L3

Oh Whitney, your dorm looks cool! Nice and colourful! I wish you all the best for your fist time at the college and I hope that you get acquainted soon! Sometimes it's just the newness of a situation :)

Funny to see that IKEA is everywhere around the globe!

Congratulations!
The struggle to find your classes will stay with you long after you leave college. It is a common recurring dream that some of us old people have only recently outgrown.
Have fun.
