I apologize in advance. My laptop is being kinda sucky and apparently some keys don't function all the time... so excuse the missing letters.
Hectic week so far... my first week of college (ooh, ahhh! - the magician had us saying that last night...). So, I arrived with all my crap, unloaded it, put it away (I know, definately not the exciting part) and then my parents left. And thus began my college life.
While I was unpacking, my 'mentor' walked in and introduced herself as Katie Campbell and gave me a nice little nametag. Anyway, then I read through my little blue orientation folder- which had candy!!!- and saw that my mentor's name was Jamie Caldwell. Uh oh. Confusion ensues. My nametag and folder say different 'orientation letters'. More confusion ensued.
Anyway, it ended up that I was in a transfer group because I had enough credits from all the AP classes I took to transfer as a sophmore, so right off the bat... different group than I thought. Only walked in circles for a little while...
So I get there, to my group, and everyone is... well... old. I think the youngest was 21. Other than me of course - tender young age of 18! Almost everyone in the group had kids. Yes, children!! And one of their children graduated with me. Weird. I was like, "crap, how am I gonna make friends!!" But it was fine. They are all nice people, and two of them, Heidi and Jess, are my Keuka college best friends.
All's good. The orientation really helped me get acquainted with the school and he people.
More to come.
