Name, Location, Dorm, Major, Cell Number (what was that last one?)

To understate grossly, these last few days have been busy. I have probably met more people since tuesday than i had met in all of my high school years. I have met some people that i already know will be my friends through these happy golden years. Others fall into quite another group, but are nonetheless quite agreeable on the surface. The vicious cycle of staying up to late and getting up too early has already begun, and will continue for the rest fo this semester.

My schedule...mmmm. I have a 745 class (yeah, thats in the AM) four days a week. On a side note, that class is Calc II. Goo. My rommate is nearlyt nonexistent. He apparently decided to spend these frist two nights with his parents instead of with me. Thats probably good, because i have probably stayed up later and gotten up earlier than he would like these past two days. That doesnt seem like much of a big deal, but i got top bunk (mmhmm, you insert the appropriate line). Lats night, while playing poker, a couple of the guys and i were throwing movie lines out there and seeing who could identify them first. Good times. We're definitely going to have a Rounders night. And LOTS of poker nights...who needs workstudy hehe.

SO i kinda want to audition for some shows here. Not musicals. But, i don;t think i can with ROTC...we'll find out for sure on saturday when i go to AFROTC orientation (at the bright horu of 8...but i have to be in LA at eight...so that puts me awake much earlier...goo).

Here's to wanting the all-too-necessary period of awkward familiarity to be over. But i guess i won't know who all my friends are just on first impressions. Some names you might be hearing me talk about: Marcus (Texas...thats it:), Anthony (Spiritual Life Advisor), David and Eric (my poker boys), Ashley, Julia, Amanda, Courtney (XC forever!), all my suite mates are pretty tight too. Banowsky is by FAR the best dorm on campus, even if we do have to walk the farthest. Thats just that much longer that we get to take in the ocean view from dorm row hehe. There's lots more for me to say, but i need to get down to dinner pretty soon. Tonights activites include. "First Year Mugging" (we have no idea what this is, but it's right afetr dinner), movie in alumni park (don't knwo how much of that i'll stick around for...pirates of the carribean...so many times...), and then, of course poker (for as long as we last). Oh, wait, good story. One of the RAs at the dorm we were playing poker in used to be a compulsive gambler. I guess there are some 18 and Up casinos around here. So he went there, and then started usign his credit card to play a abunch of on-line sights...bottom line, he lost a lot of money and his mom had to ban his credit card from being used on any gambling sites. Yeah, he was a horrible player last night and lost 10 bucks really fast...good times.

T. Welcome to the right side, man. It was cool hanging with your fam, but it would have been cooler to reconnect before you went to school... but I guess now I have to come down there to say hey. I make the trip down to LA every now and again to see the fam. I will stop in. If you are ever in need of a roadtrip destination, call me up. Seriously. We've got enough couch and floorspace to bed Napoleans army (including the elephants), so don't hesitate. And San Francisco rules anyway. Have fun, and don't overcommit. You will be wanting the 'margin' to slow down and kick it, do nothing, soak up the rays, you got the picture.
