It’s hard to not get embarrassed by the actions of the younger people I’m on the exchange with. They lump us together as a group and a few are rude and act entitled. A few bad apples make the batch look bad.
In other news I learned how to make dumplings and I ran around in a foundation today.
Nothing better than waking up in a good mood.
(I’ve been exhausted lately but I really like doing these now)
Good time here so far. Two room mates from Macao who are super nice. No gym since Thursday since my shoes made my bag overweight. Eating crap food because I have been but I’m always tired so back to no sugar tomorrow. Humidity and heat aren’t all that bad … Yet. We leave for Orlando on Monday.
I already miss some people but I know that I’ll be fine. Lots of beards on campus and I brought a personal item to take of things. TMI? Most likely but oh well. Wish I had kept other materials. This is getting weird. Okay, I’ll stop.
I am really glad to be here. I wish I could share the experience with someone but you have to do somethings on your own. This will let me get perspective on situations and my direction of life. I keep wondering how things will change while I’m gone and how it’ll be different when I’m back. I know what I want in life more or less and now I need to figure out how to get there.
Sleep sleep
(Ugh I totally wrote one out on my phone but it didn’t post)
(Also, I explained that while I’m super tired, writing these help me sleep at night and process the day)
Classes are good, teacher is good, my room mates are cool and the weather isn’t too bad. It was an eventful day.
Lots of attractive bearded men on campus. Luckily I brought a personal item to help. Totally TMI but I can overshare on this. I guess. I also wish I had kept or had some material. Okay, that’s enough sharing about that.
I miss people but I know that I’ll be okay. This is a great opportunity to gain perspective on situations and life. I generally know what I want out of life and now I need to figure out how to get there. A teacher once told me that you can go out with a plan to do anything, even to find a husband. While that is a goal, it’s not something I plan on doing any time soon but I do now understand why people don’t want to stay single for a long time after a relationship.
Blah blah blah sleep
I’m in Tallahassee! It was a crazy day but I’m glad to be here! It’s freezing in the rooms, though. One of my bags was overweight so I had to sacrifice some things including my runners :( Going to lift weights in my socks tomorrow :)
I’m exhausted but I’m very happy to have my own room for at least 10 days. I’ll share a room once we get to Disney
Okay, too sleepy to explain more. We talk later, my darlings.
Flight was cancelled twice and luckily I was still awake. I thanked the lady on the second call because both calls were excellent and super helpful. Arriving in Tallahassee around 7:30pm now
Quads and hammies are tight … nothing is new about that.
I threw up this morning so that sucked. Nervous stomach fail. I also had a giant milkshake after dinner which as a terrible idea but also delicious.
I’m going to be in Florida for six months. I don’t even know. Oh my goodness. At least I have photos of the people important to me.
Okay … I have more thoughts but I should really be sleeping. Night, my little cabbages.
Officially a light-weight when it comes to drinking. Far from drunk but I definitely feel a buzz.
I have awesome friends. My favourite bar used to have a Hip Hop night on Thursdays but now it’s something lame. Instead of leaving, we danced like idiots and acted out Dragon Ball Z.
The only packing left is intimates and work out gear!
I now understand why people bounce from relationship to relationship.
I came across old pictures and they made me really happy. I know I mentioned that before but they still make me happy.
Favourite night at favourite bar was changed. Had a few drinks so a bit tipsy but not toast. Obviously enough to post this. At least my friend and I know how to have fun — we did the twist, mashed potato, hand jive and finally acted out Dragon Ball Z. Goodness, I will miss that girl terribly.
Overall, a decent night out. On the bus headed home to crash. Major bonus: not drunk enough to drunk text.
Good greif, I need a hug but there’s no one to hug. I good big bear hug that just eats you up.
