As for studying and my classes, I think the difficult part is trying to find an efficient way of studying and getting things solidly lodged in my brain. College differs from highschool in that it isn't all laid out for you - you have to work your own method to get stuff done. Hopefully this week (week two) will make me feel a little bit more comfortable in a studying routine. And in the meantime, I'll probably be messing around till all hours on photobooth with Kristie and not reading psychology.
I really love reading all your posts. I have been debating on going to school in Seattle for quite some time now. I have been super nervous about the whole situation because I am really shy, and have a hard time making friends. I love seeing how much fun you have been having, and I really think now is the time to take a risk and just go for it! I know it's crazy, but reading your blog posts have really helped me to not be so scared anymore. I think I could do it!
Seattle isn't all that bad at all, as much as any other city. People here can be a bit cold seeming if you are from anywhere in the south, which I am, but I am used to spending enough time around Swedes to be used to it. There is a lot going on though and I would say it is quite fun but the price of living is pretty extraordinary as opposed what I'm used to. A lot of people live in outlying areas and commute, the bus system is great. I live in Capitol Hill neighborhood, and if you're looking for somewhat cheap apartments as opposed to dorms you can normally grab one for around 850$ a month (that's what I pay). If you're looking into going to UW though, the University District is way cheaper, you'd just have to be in the whole 'college town' type vibe. Really depends on what kind of lifestyle you want to live. Good luck!
So glad you're having a whale of a time! Looking absolutely lovely m'dear!
i love the cute sunnies!
Now I'm also craving pasta for lunch. The Italian festival sounds like so much fun!
