or going back in time. I'm not sure how to think about the changes in life that come with college.
Right now I am a full time student who works part time and is on the hunt for an apartment. Seems like I'm a young adult, right? Except guess what my Stats homework was tonight. I had to make a cute little card with my name on it to set at my desk during class. When I got back to my dorm this afternoon, I got out my paper, scissors, glue and markers and got to work. I thought I had left craft projects and name cards for desks behind when I went to middle school. Guess I was wrong!
The funny thing, though, is now that I am at college I crave making crafts and projects more than ever, but I have homework. I think part of my craving is that I don't want to do my homework. I think the other part is that I want to stay young and little kiddish forever. Some days I wish I could just stay at home in my dorm, eat fruit loops, color, and watch cartoons, or play with my horse all day long. But there is a funny thing about that too! Just a couple years ago, I could hardly wait to grow-up, get out of Royal, and be on my own. I have that, but I want everything I once had too! I do have it all, though!

Yoga!
So I went to my first yoga class ever earlier this evening and loved it! I loved it so much that I came right back to my dorm and signed up for a class that will take place once a week at the Rec. I'm so excited to take it, and I have two girls from my floor to thank! They were kind enough to invite me to go with them to a free class. I accepted their invite because I have wanted to take classes at the Rec since I've been at WSU. But, no one has ever wanted to go with me, and I certainly didn't want to go alone since some of the classes are at night.
So just like that I fell in love with yoga tonight. No I wasn't perfect at it, but I've learned that I don't have to be perfect at everything and that it's great to give new things a try! I just felt so good during the class and feel really relaxed right now. Yoga has been suggested to me by people who know I am uptight and always worrying, and now I know why. It's relaxing and makes you feel really good!

And Another Semester Begins
In the morning, I will be starting my fourth semester at WSU. WOW, how time flies! I'm so excited for all the new coming my way. I'll be taking three classes that each have a lab, which means I'll be taking 12 credits while working. It'll be tough, but I'm ready. I'm going to learn lots and lots of new information that I will be able to take with me and apply to whatever I decide to be when I grow up. I'm also super excited to continue working. I'm looking forward to working with and meeting more great people. It'll be fun!
BUT, the thing I'm most excited about is making more friends. I have a great best friend here at school, but she and I are always looking for other friends to hang out with us. After the dinner we had tonight, we are positive we have a new friend. Actually, she is a kind girl that is a friend of my sister's from back home but she goes to school here at WSU. After my sister bugging me to text her and now that I've really met her, I'd say I have a another friend! We are going to have a good time spending more time together.
So tomorrow I'll get up and workout quick. Then I'll start the craziness off with horticulture 202 at nine. Between horticulture and organic chemistry at one, I'll work a couple hours. That will be my schedule on Mondays and Wednesdays except I'll also have a lab Wednesday evenings. I'll start my Tuesdays early because I'm working the opening shift at work. Once I'm done with work, I'll hustle over to lab. Then I'll have an hour break before Statistics 212. Thursday will be similar to Tuesday because I have a lab and STATS class again. Friday will be great because I'll only have two classes, and after two in the afternoon my weekend will start. This will be my life for the next 16 weeks and in my free time I'll hang out with friends or make a quick trip home. So with new classes, a fun job, and more friends, I have a lot to be excited about and to look forward to! Let spring semester 2011 begin!
