Sweetness

College life is awesome!

I'm here for preseason and even though I broke my foot and therefore can't play soccer I am having SUCH a blast.

I love college soccer! I love the people, how everyone is so driven, the coaching staff and how much time they invest in really getting to know you.  It's so me and it's really great.  I just have to be patient and hungry at the same time.  I'm biking a bit, doing core workouts, and keeping engaged in the classroom sessions.  I gotta be able to rock 'n roll when my time comes, and trust me it's coming.

So far, the people I've met have been really fun to get to know.  It's nice to be part of a "family" and get to know campus before everyone else arrives this weekend.

The basilica and the adoration chapel are so great to be able to go to whenever I want as well.

And strangely enough, I'm looking forward to classes starting....

I must be going crazy or something.

PACKING!!!!

People,

I am leaving in 6 days!
I can't believe it!

I've started legitimately packing my clothes and essentials today.

Wow, I have alot of STUFF.

See my 2 siblings before me have gone to colleges close by.
My college is 7 hours away.
I can't do what they did, which is swing by home and pick up stuff if they need it.
So I have to prepare myself for the colder months while not bringing every article of clothing I own.
This is alot harder than it sounds.

Does anybody have any college packing tips?

I'm trying not to overdo it.  It's not exactly working.  Oh well!

TTFN!
