It was a really surreal moment (is that the right word... surreal???) when I dropped my dad off at the airport and he said, "See you in a couple months!" It made me realize that this was actually happening. I was now officially in college. I'm away from home and living on my own. It was a sad thought, but liberating at the same time. Lots of mixed emotions there.
Anyways, being here is really quite an amazing experience. We've toured the campus and have heard talks (both spiritual and secular) about our upcoming time at BYU. Also, the food is amazing. I LOVE the Cannon center.
I'm very excited for classes to start up on Monday. It's going to be quite the experience. Also, the Freshman Mentoring thingy is great. I've already met tons of friends who will be in Psych111 with me. Also, my roommate is awesome. We're going to get along just wonderfully.
I signed an honor code saying that I wouldn't lie, so I won't say that I miss my family. Yet. Because I don't. Right now this just feels like a big EFY group. I have a feeling that all that will change once classes begin though...
Odd side note: one of the books I bought for Psych (the most expensive one naturally) is apparently not the right book. The author, title, and edition are all correct, but not the ISBN#. So looks like I'm going to be returning that.
Anyways tonight will be a blast. There is going to be food and music and games and even a bouncy-house for the NSO Finale! Fun fun!!!
So I guess this is the end of my first post here on my first full day at BYU. Thanks for reading! Love you family! I can't wait to see you all again soon!
