Well, finally here and It’s not so bad, even if I do have to share a bathroom with two other people.

It’s actually better than home in some respects, in the fact that the guys that I’m sharing with seem ok with me having a little bit of counter space in there. Also, neither of them have thrown any feminine hygiene products at or near the trashcan since I’ve been here.

Yesterday I woke up early, finished my packing and headed up to the school, getting there way too early and only to discover that Matt & Mary-Beth hadn’t arrived yet. I left a message for Matt (which he couldn’t answer due to some phone issues. Who knew you couldn’t let people drive over the things?) and called Mary-Beth to discover that she wasn’t going to meet us at school. Matt finally arrived and we headed out.

Matt & I talked most of the way and have come to the conclusion that we both hate Bush. Surprised, huh?

Arrival time was to be between 12:30 & 1:30, so of course I arrive at 1:25. Early I tell you. We went immediately into a session upon arrival and kept going pretty much all day. I really enjoyed finally learning about my personality type. I’d like everyone to know it’s not my fault. You can’t blame me for being messy, or shy, or quiet, or late ever again. It’s not my fault! I’m an INFP! We’re just made that way.

We had a speaker during dinner, president of one of the colleges. I’m sure we won’t see Zeiss here, and if we did I’d have to be introduced to him for the 3 time. Could we get that man some ginkgo?

After dinner, we met with our work groups (Go Blue!) and discussed our project, it seems like it’ll be pretty interesting. I think everyone in our group is bringing something different to the table and I can only hope what I bring is useful.

After group sessions and meeting with everyone to wrap up for the evening, we had the most important part of the trip.

Ghetto Walmart.

I’m just saying.
