Freshman

First day of college starts tomorrow for me. For the first time in a long time, I am actually excited for school to begin! I guess that would be the proper emotion to show when you're paying for your own education. I finally inherited that hoopty Saturn from my dad. For those of you who don't know, a hoopty (HOOP - TEE) is a worn down winter beater that you drive on a daily basis. The car use to be obnoxiously loud that it was my neighbor's alarm every morning for a year before my mom finally made an appointment to get the muffler fixed. My dad believes in being very frugal and didn't want to waste money on a "little inconvenience." Right, right.

I lucked out because the campus is only 7.04 miles away from home, so I will get the pleasure of riding my bike to school most days until the weather goes winter again. I also got a promotion at work, so that's sweet. Seems like everything is falling into a good place for me.
