Killing time...

#180
Today was a lot more chill than my other days here. I had my last orientation group. Then went to lunch. Then went to my FTS (first term seminar) meeting. Got my first assignment. School starts tomorrow... but its decently easy and I finished half of it. Then I went to the back to school bash with some of the girls in my section. After that I had lots and lots of down time so KN and I skyped for a good half hour. Its a great way to kill time. We had some fun. =] Then I hung with girls in the section. We had a computer party out in our lounge area. Then I went up a floor and hung out with some people up there, then back down to my section. It was a fun day.

Class tomorrow. Eek.

End of the world

#179
Well today was another decently busy day. I started the day with more orientation stuff. Then some of us went out and played a game of ultimate with other random Gusties. Our team won. Not that I did a whole lot. Some of the people on my team are crazy like they played on high school and or national teams. Then lunch, then some survey, then a book discussion, then a scavenger hunt (which is where the picture comes from) This is AC, a kid in my group. He is checking out the end of the world. If you sit in the right spot it looks like you are standing on a building. Its kinda sweet. But our hunt failed. Then I went to dinner, then to a sweet skit show by the theatre group here (I am, we are). It was intense and super deep. Then we discussed it then I went to play bingo then came back and went to E and A's room to watch John Tucker Must Die with some girls in our section, then came back to my room to hear JA's audition song for The Scarlet Pimpernel at Tonka. And I am now taking to my PIC who I haven't talked to in ages. So yeah... luckily tomorrow is less busy. It is the last day of summer after all.. (wow, thats sad)

Full day #1

#179
And let me tell you... it was a BUSY day. From the time I got up to now this is what occured: breakfast, orientation, tour, ultimate frisbee practice/talking to new people, lunch, orientation skits (hilarious), ice cream social at President Ohle's house, theatre meeting, theatre scholarship meeting, semi-formal President's dinner (yay for free food!), square dance, change for superhero dance, hang with new friends, superhero dance, shower, posting this. It was the most full day ever. I'm EXHAUSTED. And therefore am going to bed. Here is AR playing some Super Smash Bros.

p.s. this whole picture thing is challenging here. So I apologize in advanced if my pictures go downhill for a while.

COLLEGE!!!

#178
Well, I made it! And its AMAZING. I've met so many people that I absolutely LOVE and I finally met the people I have been talking to online all summer which was so much fun. And they are so so so nice. I got my room all set up (pictured here) walked around campus with a group of people from my building, went to a hypnotist which was HILARIOUS, and spent some time with my section-mates. But now I need sleep, full day tomorrow. =]

Last day

#177
Today was officially my last day in Tonka. I went to breakfast with EK, NK, and my bro. Then came home and finished packing while DN and SB came and hung out. Then JW stopped by. Then KN stopped by. Then my PIC came over and hung out for a while while I finished final packing and got ready for tomorrow. We then chilled for the rest of the night watching How I Met Your Mother. DH stopped by for a while too. I'll miss all those guys. A lot. Maybe tomorrow you will get a picture of my room... or something. =]

GAC countdown: 8 hours.

Pool Party

#176
I spend the first part of the day packing. So, most everything is packed now except for clothes. Which is exciting. Then AT and MK came over and we watched 17 Again and Rent while eating lunchables (cause we haven't had them in years). Then I went to JW's house for a party. We found this car ramp thing set up by the pool and it kept us entertained for a good amount of time.

it never ends...

I threw a bonfire tonight after hanging out with DN all day. It was a great night. And an above par social gathering (as my PIC and I were trying to think up ways that we could say it was a good party). I'll really miss the people here. Lots of goodbyes tonight. I swear they never end. Till Friday... 3 days =]
