Well, as far as work goes, I will be working at AoP until the 28. My boss is being a child about it, so she's not really talking to me. Hasn't been for the past 2 weeks and probably won't for the rest of the month. Whatever. Anyway, so the drive to Mass will start Sept 1 and we'll prolly arrive on the night of the next day. Then, school starts on the 7th, and i have to take a spanish test that day, then a math test on the 13. No roomies so far, but hopefully someone will turn out soon. I have the apartment all set and ready to go :) Financial Aid however, is a much slower process with much bureaucracy. Eugh. I'm starting to pack, starting with my clothes, and trying to see how I can fit everything basically in my trunk. (My mom will be on passenger side, and two dogs w/booster will take up one seat) I still have to call the bow wow place and see if they will hold a spot for me to be hired.
Trying to hang out w/all the rest of the tomball ppl b4 they all go off to their designated colleges. The only one I will see during the year will be Alexandria cuz she'll be in Cambridge. (2.5 hrs away) The other good thing about UMass is that it's 4 hrs away from my cousins (on my dad's side) who I never get to see. And also, it's the exact distance from tomball-corpus is amherst-philadelphia. Can't wait for some cheesesteaks! The only thing is... they all like fish up there. I can't stand fish. Bleh.
I think i already blogged abt this, but during first week they have all the expos for clubs and a concert with We The Kings (for UMass students only) :) Well, it's a busy busy time, but it's all exciting and I can't wait!

Scaling the Andes
Andes mints that is. :) I had a box of 28 mints and ate the whole thing in 2 days. Whoops. Oh well.
Anyway, transition into college is a cinch so far. My roomies are all wonderful : there's Kaitie, Alex, and Sarah (all from KS). Besides the fact that it's always at least a 15 degree diff between here and houston, it's all right. My classes are pretty interesting so far. All except Physical Science b/c so far it's really easy, and the fact that all my other classes are in the morning and this one class is at 2:10 everyday. The good thing is that I only have a max of 3 classes a day.
I can walk to class for everywhere I need to go, and the town is so small that I ride my bike practically everyday. So, I like it so far.
On a different note, this weekend I'll be traveling to Tyler, TX (around there anyway) to go to the Center for Creative Media) which I strongly considered applying to. It's for the ppl interested in media production and such. I'll already know the campus, and they're an awesome organization so I think it'll be fun.
Now, in lull of all this crazy college life, I still miss all my tomball ppl dearly, just so u know. ;)
I think that's all I have to report right now. TTYL!
