I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. Here's what you've missed...
My roommate moved out! So now I have a room all to myself!!!!!!!!! which ROCKS. and I only have to share the bathroom with one other person now. :)
I have been writing numerous papers for English, sitting around a lot, and building my muscles!
I actually just got back from weight training and I'm really tired and sore. I was the only one who showed up today so I had no one to talk to, so I listened to my iPod. I started with a warm up on the treadmill while listening to "Eye of the Tiger". Yes, I feel like a dork, you don't have to ask. Then I went on with lifting weights of various sorts. I'm really sore, and I think I broke my finger on the way back by slamming it in the door. But I do enjoy the burst of energy working out in the morning gives you for the rest of the day. :)
We had room checks the other night and I'm proud to say I won cleanest dorm. My prize? A granola bar. Eh...better than nothing. I did get in trouble for my cords, though. they told me to spread them out if I didn't want to die. lol There really aren't that many, it's just the way they were all bunched up and the usb cords were tangled in too.
I've got to go read my English paper that I finished at 1:40 am last night to see if it still makes sense, and then It's scrubs/nap time until lunch. :)
Hope everyone has a great day!!!
Before I get to the title of this post, let me tell you about my weekend...
I went home to The LC and surprised everyone there!! It was super duper awesome!!
I got there on Friday around noon and went straight to the High school to see Mrs. Yancey! She was so happy to see me. :) We talked a lot about how school is going for both of us this year and how the bay harbourites are doing in college. :)
Then I stopped by the band hall, but nobody was in there that I wanted to say hi to. I grabbed some lunch and headed home and then shortly after I went to the Escalante's and just hung out there until Sofi and Gusti got home and I met them at the bus stop. :)
We went to the football game that night and it was pretty good to see everyone. I sorta miss being in the band...but not badly enough to join the one in college... it wouldn't be the same anyways.
Saturday, we hung out and had friends over and had a cook out. Yum Yum! Then, Saturday night, I went to Robert's aunt's wedding and got to see a few more friends and stayed out WAY too late. (3am)
Sunday, I got up and went to church and saw a lot more people and heard this AWESOME speaker, Don Piper, who is the author of 90 minutes in Heaven. Everyone should go read the book. now. :)
After church, I went to Mely's with Amy, Neal, and Savan. Then went home and hung out. Adri and I went to a party for like 45 minutes, which was pretty boring. and we got in trouble. but I won't get into it. :) Janna came over later and we had TACOS!! woo. :)
Monday, I drove back to college with Destiny.
....and now we get to the part about the title. My roommate put the air on 55, I got mad, so I locked the bathroom door(how she usually gets in and out of our room) and locked the front door and went to tyler to meet my parents to see a movie(Balls of Fury) and go eat.
It's not my fault she didn't have her keys. Anyways, when I got back, she was pushing the bed in front of the door so I couldn't get in. I pushed my way through anyways. She left and didn't come back, not even to sleep, until this afternoon.
Oh, and I got pulled over by a state trooper on my way back from Tyler. Oops. I just got a warning, though. "speeding in a 55".
Yesterday, I got up around 8, got dressed, did not feel well at all, went to weight training class...and IT WAS CANCELED! man oh man... I could've slept in until 10:30. Oh well, i ate breakfast and watched t.v. so it was all good.
At 11, I went to my orientation class. We went over the syllabus and filled out a questionare about ourselves. Then we went around the room and told each other our names, where we came from, what college we're going to after this, and 2 unique things about ourselves.
"Hi, I'm Sami Gilliam from League City, TX. After Lon Morris, I'm going to University of Houston Clear Lake, and I'm a preacher's kid and I'm blogging my college experience."
After class, I went to lunch and then I draw a blank on where most of the day went. At least 30 minutes of it went to sleep.
Around 5, I went to dinner with some friends. On my way to dinner, I couldn't see out of my right eye and I've been having really bad headaches lately. I talked to my mom and she said they might be optic migraines and to get more sleep.
I went to Government class tonight at 6, and there are probably 10 people in that class and I'm the only girl. Most of the people are high schoolers trying to get ahead. It meets in a computer lab, and the teacher said we could surf the web when we wanted, as long as we got our work done. :)
I've been told this blog is pretty boring, which is true. But, it's really just a reflection of what life in Jacksonville is like. :P So, anyways, to spice things up a bit, I'll tell you what happened around midnight here in the dorms.
I heard something being dropped out in the hallway, and i ran out there to find my roommate and suite mate launching chairs down the hallway at each other. It was pretty funny. Then they got mattresses and ran down the hall and sumo wrestled each other, then started sledding on them. My roomie wanted to go down the stairs on one, so i pushed her. Someone made the comment of "haha. her roommates the first to push!" I'm not that eager to get rid of her! I promise. :P Anyways, She went down the stairs on the mattress, only the mattress got stuck halfway down and she just flew off into the wall.
Today I have Physics, Religion, Service Learning, and Lab. I'm done at 3, and hopefully can get some sleep after that.
