Hmmm, learning how to do some major blunders :)

So here I am in my first night back in Ames! I think I've been pretty productive so far in the whole *moving* process. I brought back all the stuff I had in Omaha and stuffed it (literally) all into my little Ford Escort and stayed in Des Moines last night at the deacon's house. I had a pretty good night's sleep and woke up mysteriously at 6am without the need for an alarm :P So I talked to Mr. and Mrs. Blackman for a bit and then headed off for Ames with my packed car. Of course with Des Moines being under construction at every single turn I got lost for about 20-25 minutes trying to find the right interstate exit (why do I always feel like I'm going around in circles in that city without getting anywhere).
Anyways, I got to Ames at about 8:30 and I was glad I decided to do this early because there was barely anybody here. No stressing over parking, no inadvertant running into idiots who don't look as to where they are going...no idiots whatsoever. So I took of my backpacks and sling packs and checked-in and went to the pimped-up suite room I have this year. Of course Mike Dorothy was sleeping and I woke him up and he helped me in taking my stuff up. I love having elevators instead of going up 4 flight of stairs like I was used to doing in the old building. So after everything was loaded out of the car I started unpacking everything. After a couple of hours I got everything set in order and the computer running (yay for technology!). So of course after getting the laptop running I didn't do anything productive the rest of the day other than check my email, reply to a lot of people that I wasn't able to write to in a long time (due to my summer exile), watch some tv, read the news, all that unproductive stuff that I didn't do during the summer.
So as 4pm came and went I did some light working out and I went to grab a meal to eat at the Dining Center but to my surprise apparently there was no dinner being served because of the freshman orientation stuff going on today!!! Arrgh, I was kinda disappointed because I skipped lunch thinking of grabbing a big dinner but it didn't work out that way. So I grabbed a somewhat decent sandwich at the Student Store and some tortilla chips and tried to subdue the hunger. Hmmm, I should have checked the online menu to see if dinner was being served but alas I'm becoming more and more like my best friend Jonny G :) Absent mindedness is a contagious thing you know.
Hmmm, I have the urge to go and play some bball so off I go to work out a bit more. I'm not a big fan of school but I'm glad I have communication with the outside world :)
