College Update

College is going very well - I think EA and I are really settling in, and we're having a great time. I already have a lot of homework, and I have been very busy recently. I haven't gotten my camera out much, but I'm hoping to more. The weather recently has been stunning, and I have enjoyed most of my afternoons studying outside in the grass. Here are some photos from the last few weeks to help you all get caught up. :-)
This is EA and my room - Olds 108.
This was the day we moved in - it's much cleaner now. Really, it is.
Part of the strip from the photobooth at the welcome party. I love photobooths.
Olds upper left hall across the courtyard from us - Dani and Celia and EA and I leave notes for eachother in the windows.
Central Hall.
Caroline is on the left - I have really enjoyed getting to know her over the past few weeks. She often spends the afternoons outside with me. Her roommate Sarah is on the right - she is a sweet girl.
First football game of the school year! Bonnie, EA and I decorated the sidewalk outside of Olds that morning.
The walk up the hill - I make this at least four times a day.
Latin from class one afternoon. Yes, Dr. Garnjobst takes us outside to do our Latin on the sidewalk. I love it.
With Dani and Wesley in the arboretum.

Shannon,
My eyes are a bit teary...How good to hear you are doing well at Hillsdale! I'm going to buy stock in sidewalk chalk. Whoever knew it would be on a college "school supplies" list? And Latin on the sidwalk...WOW! I'm going to try it here. Hello to EA too!

Football!!! Never thought you'd give in to such an "inferior" sport. :P
