So dorm life,
HELLOOOoOOoOOO out there. :] I think I finally have time to update this place.

So I moved into Ole Miss dorms about a month ago. (Was it really a month ago? Felt like last week!) It started out very rough. I couldn't get registered into my classes because they were full, so I was stuck on the waitlist. After a week of no financial aid, I got upset and scared cause I was almost out of cash, but luckily the guy in financial aid WAS SO NICE. He had the classroom capacities expanded so I could get registered and receive my aid.

Classes here are really.. challenging. TONS of reading assignments. I signed up for a class called 'structure of a less commonly taught language,' I thought Korean, but turns out it was Old Norse. Not my favorite subject, definitely. It's a dead language so everything talked about is theory-based. Ugh. It's also a kind-of advanced Linguistics course. I'm only in Intro. TOT But, THANK GOODNESS all my teachers are truly amazing people. <3 They're not the stereotypical evil university teachers I normally hear about. They'll set the pace for you and help you when you need it. My intro teacher is hilarious. I want to be a teacher like her. ;-;

Let's see. Sadly I'm still kind-of a loner here. I have an acquaintance in my Old Norse class. I'm making good friends with the Jiu-Jutsu guys, which reminds me of my next topic.

I talked about a girl here who was a black belt in my martial arts. I talked to her, but she said she can't remember her stuff. Plus, I think she's busy. She introduced me to the Jiu-Jutsu class but I never saw her again after the first class. It's okay. I'm studying my brown belt techniques out of the book, with an imaginary partner *lame?* I'm getting my brothers to buy me the Forms DVD. Hopefully by the end of March, I'll be prepared to take my brown belt test! <3 There's also the annual tournament at the end of March. I thought I was going to do just sparring because I haven't had time to train for kicking and falling or forms, but just yesterday I found out the multi-purpose room is unlocked and empty at night. AND Jiu-Jutsu leaves their mats right outside the door on the weekends~~~<3 I'm hoping I can use it every weekend without any problems, like someone telling I'll have to rent the room to use it. -o- I hope not.

I started running at the track last week. Yesterday I was able to run 3 laps without stopping! HOORAY. Today, my calves are screaming in pain. <.< I can't wait when I get into better shape.

My roommate is okay. She's a sorority girl, so she's usually gossiping with her friends and usually only here 2 days the week. ^O^ Otherwise, she's very nice.

Let's see, that's all I can think of. I think this may be enough to read anyway. xD

Bye you guys! <3
