First Day

I woke early thanks to my window facing east. Once 8 o'clock hit, I grabbed my water bottle, my ID, my headphones, and a banana to take on the school's gym for the first time. It was a doozy: elliptical, tricep machine, followed by crunches. I did it, and I felt better for it. Lunch was at the Baugh, meh, but made better by two good friends whose company I've missed these past months. 2 classes and overviews of the course objectives under my belt. A sticky amount of sweating from crossing all lengths of the campus. I made my own dinner tonight, a chicken breast on the panini press with some Italian seasoning. Salad with cucumbers accompanied, and then I ate some chips just cause I wanted to. I entertained a friend over dinner, and the two of us played Bananagrams after we'd done our chatting. I capped my dinner around 9:15 when I started in on the piece of chocolate cream pie with my name on it. Lots of reading for classes along the way. It's already a mountain before me. Finally, dropped the dishwasher tab under the bottom rack, and flipped the on lever. Now I sit at my computer.

I was a little worried that with having my own kitchen this semester, I wouldn't really leave my apartment much. Thus, my socialization would tank. But for the first day, I exercised, had lunch with friends, dinner with a friend, played Bananagrams, spent lots of time sitting next to my roommate, and I still did a load of homework. I'm not worried anymore. A kitchen only means eating real food and gives you the bonus of being able to share of yourself by feeding others.

For now I must check out. My interview is tomorrow morning at 10:00 am. Please pray for me. I want this internship so much, I'm kind of afraid to talk about it.
