It's hard making the monotony that has become my weekdays into something worth updating you about. Most of my time the past couple of days has consisted of classes and large amounts of homework. Although, little bursts of excitement have been coming my way. These little bursts are promising. Yesterday I went for a 45 minutes hike/ walk around campus with my roommate and explored places we never knew existed. It was beautiful. We discovered a pond that was once used as a swimming hole for the campus, and now is unkempt and most likely bacteria filled. It was also surrounded by a chain-link fence, but we hopped it and walked up to the edge only to see about 50 or 100 frogs making their homes on the outer edges of the pond/pool. We walked around the whole edge of the pond and catalyzed a symphonic progression of frogs jumping into the pond in some weird synchronization. Torrie really wants to go swimming in it late one night, naked, but I am really scared that we'll get some flesh eating bacteria or water snakes up our butts. Or worse.

Torrie is my best friend here, I am really glad that we are roommates. We get along so well and we make each other laugh. I think we could be really close, but her boyfriend already fills that space for her, which is sort of impeding our relationship. I am trying to find some kind of comfortableness here, and she already has it. As I see it now, the group of friends people have made now are just there to help them not be lonely and the real friends I am about to make will be the ones that I can relate with. Lizzie, the one who likes good music, never texts me. Every time we hang out it's because I initiate it. So I don't know about that. Everyone here is comfortable with just their roommates. No one is friendly. Maybe I'm just not friendly. I'd like to think I am though. Who knows what will happen. This weekend Torrie wants to "party" so hopefully that will be fun.

Moses texted me for the first time in three days again last night. Hahahah. SO WEIRD! Because I passed him on campus and he didn't even acknowledge me. WHO IS HE???
