Well I'm beginning to agree with Forest Gump when he said "life is like a box of chocolates...you never know what you are going to get."
Apperently after I chose the "go back to college" and "have fun with friends" chocolates - I picked the "meningitis" chocolate :D That is what I'm talking about. Haha not really. Meningitis is one of the most painful things I've ever experienced in my life. I never want to have a head ache like that again. Thank you all who called and talked with me and prayed for me! It really helped. I still have a bit of a head ache but mostly I'm just tired and my spine hurts. Yesterday I ventured out to do Yoga. It was hard but good. There is a class tonight but I don't want to over do it so I think I'll go tomorrow instead.
So far school has been a blast (minus the three weeks of sickness). Life here moves super quick. I'll be back home before I know it. I live with some of my best friends :) we basically laugh all day. My room roommate is from Utah and it is her first semester. Haha we have fun together. She is a crazy girl... and luckily she is messy like me. My other two roommates are from a little town in Idaho. They are pretty cool... except one gets mad because I turn the light off a lot... because I like my natural sunlight :) We live in apartments called Carriage House. One of our toilets is currently broken (luckily we have two). There is a story behind it but I'm not sure if you all would appreciate it... :)
So far classes aren't TOO bad. I really dislike my American Foundations class. We write about three papers a week. But whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger right?
I went to something called music outlet on Monday. It is where students get up and play music that they have writen (mostly guitar and piano players). You don't have to try out or anything, you just go up and do your thing. Well in one of the songs someone was playing a djembe which is an african drum. It sounded really really AWESOME! I think someday when I can give plasma enough or I can get a job on campus, it would be cool to get one. I'm still workin away on the guitar too :) I'm trying to write a song right now... woo hoo.
Well if you haven't been able to tell... I'm avoiding homework. It isn't that I'm not going to do it, but, after a few hours, I just need a break. I'll download pictures soon!

I am so glad to hear you are alive. Mom told me you went without any pain killers at all today. Good for you, but just make sure you aren't doing it too soon. Your body is still healing. Meningitis is an icky thing, but just remember it being "the worst pain" when you are in labor with a child someday. Love ya!! Andrew misses you and so do I.
I'm glad you're alive too. Connor almost went into shock when he heard you were sick from something that can kill. I told him to pray for you...he prayed really hard. We love you. Glad you're having fun!
So, Mary, I blog stalked you from Debbie and Sarah's blog and just had to comment because I was a Carriage House girl also. I lived in 207 my first year and 204 my second year. Good times!
