Door dec time

I'm currently sitting in my room listening to Dirt Road Anthem by Jason Aldean. Confession time: I'm secretly a country music lover. Don't give me any twangy crap but most of the stuff they play on the radio, I like. When I hear this song, I just wanna sing along and bob my head. Don't lie. You do it too. :)

Today was day two of RA training and even though we got off to an info packed start, the day was really good. We had a session with Reggie- aka the coolest person you'll ever meet on this campus- and UAPD and writing incident reports. All this stuff makes me feel like all I'll ever be doing is paperwork, which I know is a lie but seriously, they make it sound so much worse than it is :). I suppose that's how they prepare you eh?! Anyway, After that, we went as a staff to Hobby Lobby to get out door dec stuff and then  some of us went out for mexican food because the cafeteria had closed by the time we got home. It was so fun. Roxy, Justin and I worked on the door dec stuff for our floor and then had ice cream with our other RAs in our CREs apartment. Roxy's car had broken down earlier in the day and so she asked me if she could borrow my car or if I could drive her/go with her to her friends new apartment. I'll admit the thought passed through me head "just stay in, it'll be weird and who knows if it'll even be fun." but I pushed it aside and the advice of my sister to get out and just meet new people no matter what came into my head so I told her I'd love to go with. So we went and it was so much fun! We ended up at an ice cream shop and sat around and talked. It wasn't awkward or anything and the people were so welcoming. I had a blast and I'm so glad I went out and didn't just stay in.

I'm feeling way more at home now, (Sorry if my last post worried some people), I'm really doing good, I just had a rough time saying goodbye which is totally understandable, ya know?! :) I can't wait to make my room feel more cozy, right now it's pretty bare, I wanna bring in some more canvases and stuff to put on the walls, I may even rearrange. I don't know what to do with all this space, so it'll be interesting coming up with a new way to put stuff! I'm so ready for more training, bring it on. I can't wait to meet my residents and just dive right into school! Whoo! GO HOGS! haha
Till I write again!
Jacks

Thought for the day: nicknames are so interesting. They say a lot about the person giving them and the person receiving them. My co RA Roxy decided my new nickname with be Apple Jacks, so I'm excited to see if it'll catch on :). Night all!
