Official College Student

So, I had my first official late night as a college student. If any of you know me at all you know what a milestone it is. Me and my friend Faith and another new girl (I cannot for the life of me remember her name) made a Wal Mart and Taco Bell run. We spent nearly 2 hours in Wal Mart. The Wal Mart here is in an old Johnson&Johnson warehouse so it is HUGE. Just to put it into perspective when Dylan came to visit me yesterday I pointed out where things were as he drove us to lunch and I mistook Wal Mart for the Mall. That is how big it is. That will take some major getting used too. I didn't get much at Wal Mart. A few air fresheners because my living room still smells odd. I got an extra air freshener for my room so one can go in my closet. I got a swiffer and started pack for only $10 and I got a UTA shirt for $9. It looks like the same shirt you can get on campus that is $29. I didn't get home until 1am and I didn't go to bed until 3am. Unfortunately I picked the night before classes start, but it has been okay I managed well. My first class for today was at 9:30 am. It was Developmental Psychology. It is in a lecture hall with stadium seating and we have 205 students in the class. This is a whole lot different than NTCC where the room was just like my high school classes and held an average of 25 students. I LOVEEEE my professor. She is British so she is fabulous to just sit and listen to. She is probably about 35 and understands that her class isn't the only important thing in the world. I am so glad I signed up to take it with her. She will be fun. On our first day in there she already cracked many jokes and even swore a few times. She told us we had to warn her if we were going to bring our kids to class so she would tone down her swear words. She is a doll. My next class isn't until 7pm so I am going to take a nap eventually and me and my roomate are actually going to do lunch today so that should be fun. We are meeting up with Faith and the new girl later. It is pretty cool to walk around and already have people call my name and wave or just recognize people in general. I definitely didn't expect to feel this comfortable this fast.

BTW: Mom, I keep forgetting to tell you. I realized now why that candle thing was only .39, I opened it up to set it out and that sh*t went EVERYWHERE! It was ground up into a fine powder and was not a solid block at all like it was supposed to be. I spent a good amount of time on my hands and knees with my tiny handheld duster broom sweeping it up and I am still finding some everywhereeeee.
