College!

College is AWESOME! I absolutely LOVE it! I have way to much homework and way to much fun with my roommates and friends. My roommates Alex (my cousin), Kailey, and I love to play card games. Last week we ended up throwing cards at each other until one hand went over the couch and into the garbage can. We play charades and Sweetish Twister.  Its all just so fun! BUT my favorite part is every night at 9:50 we go to our cute neighbors house and dance to 3 songs for 10 min. Every night except Sunday. Oh Heavens! It is SO MUCH FRICKEN FUN! I've gone EVERY night!
The down side of College; homesickness, being OOBER responsible, and having to pay $2.00 for 1 load of laundry (one for wash and one for dry). Homesickness is commonly cured by cleaning, loud music, and calling home frequently. The responsibility; just happens. I often wish that I could just leave my dishes in the sink or even load the dishwasher instead of filling the sink with water and wasting 15 min washing, drying, and putting away. I also wish I didn't have to make dinner every night. I run out of ideas. Its really hard only cooking for one person, and I can only handle so many left overs. I hate being financial responsible. Its so much harder now. I cant just go out and buy what ever food. I have to plan and take a list, or go with out a lot of good foods. I have eaten so much toast in the last few weeks it's CRAZY! I just get lazy and cheap and bread, butter, and jelly are cheaper, and they satisfy my hunger.
So that is my "crazy" College life. Not really exciting, but it is for me. Its new and fun. It doesn't even feel real,  until I get annoyed with one of my roommates or I just want my own space-- and then I realize... I'm stuck here. Its not going to end for a while, so I've got to make the best of things and take the positive out of life. Then that's when I think, "How many weeks till I go home?" Ill try to post some pix of me and my roommates soon, but who knows it might not be for a while :)
