A New Life!

No, not a baby-sort of new life. Though my aunt did have her first kid about to weeks ago, and the girl is beautiful. 

I'm talking about the starting-new sort of new life. I thought the changes were coming within time, at a steady pace, but these changes have much more of an avalanche feel to them.

I love it.

I'm in my new dorm! Only about 4 twisty turny miles from my home, which is weird. Most people ask my why I don't commute. And of course I say I needed to cut the cord, make it myself (mostly, anyways), and get some space! Which I have.

My friends have already come to check out the dorm. Claire is leaving today for her college which is a few hours away. I'll miss her and her ever-positive attitude. 

This week is hectic - I have no idea how to reserve my books, I have to wait to change one of my classes and it's killing me, and I start on Monday! 

I'm going shopping today with my room mate - who is all the way from Durban, South Africa - and her mother. Should be interesting!
