So this is my first post from my new city! It has taken me awhile because I don't have internet until I move into my new apartment but it's whatever. I have to go to either the public library or UCO's library in order to use the stinkin internet.
It is sad but I have realized just how much I actually use it. I will just consider this a blessing and call it a much needed de-tox. :)
Anyways, so Dad, Jason and I had oh SO much fun driving down here. We got here a week ago Saturday and by then I was so sick of the car I wanted to scream! We then proceeded to do so many mindless errands around town for me that I thought my brain was turning to mush. I am VERY grateful that they were here though. We ran into some interesting school issues and I really appreciate Dad being here to help me sort them out. Jason helped me, or maybe I should say forced, to learn the streets and how to fing my way around. Since they have left I have only gotten lost twice and I was able to find my way where I was going both times thanks to his good teaching.
They left Thursday afternoon and then the real fun began. I went to library and stockpiled on books, movies and then to grocery store to get food and holed up in my apartment for the weekend. I have watched so many movies in the past few days that I kinda want to break my new tv! (It's a pretty 26" that doubles as a moniter for my desktop...) I did venture out of my apartment friday to go on a walk around my neighborhood.
Saturday afternoon I wanted to go walk around Lake Hefner and take pictures/ swim, etc. So I put on my swimsuit and hopped in the car. After walking the trail around the lake for about 2.5 miles in 90% humidity, I realized that I wasn't gonna make it all the way around so I turned around and started to make my way back to my car. I didn't make it very far when I started to get really sick. I had to sit down and drink a whole a lot of water before I could drag my sorry butt back to the car. I got home and laid under my fan the rest of the day. Pretty sure I had some heat exhaustion going on...Yeah, I am really smart.
I started work today. That was exciting! Just ACI training and then just orientation stuff around the training room but it was still fun. I got to meet the other two GAs. Rachel and Simon. They seem really cool and I think these next two years are gonna be really fun.
Well, my time is up on this computer. More soon! I miss you, Utah! :o)
