Move in day was...eventful to say the least. On the way down there was a huge wreck that delayed me about an hour and a half. When I finally got here though, I got to deal with the challenge of moving in by myself. Although it was a little sad to see everyone else with their parents moving them in, it was kind of nice to move in and not have to entertain my parents/family.
Things were pretty quiet for the first few days...and then it hit everyone that they didn't have parents around. For the first few days everyone went to the "new student activities" and hung out with old friends. It wasn't really until after classes started that people started being more outgoing. Finally, doors started opening in the hallways, people actually stopped by and said hi when my door was open, and I began to meet a lot more people.
Party, party, party. It seems like that's what about 80% of the college has been doing lately. There are a lot of freshman attending frat parties for the first time, finally tasting freedom and not having to worry about how to get home or how sober to be when they get home. On that note, there have been a few alcohol poisonings too.
So far college life has been pretty uneventful actually...but then again, it is only week 2.
