AggieLand!

So i'm officially all moved into college! I moved into my dorm a little under two weeks ago, and I love it!
Lets start with, the roommate! She is what we call "the allusive roommate" she is never here and when she is, its not for long! We have determined that she only paid for residency because she is to young to live off campus (age is 21 here). So we never see her, shes nice, but weird. So it is really like I have my own room, and that, I am OKAY with. I really like my two suite-mates, they are both really sweet and have really helped me out with this whole not knowing anyone thing! 
I also really love my room, its very homey and comfy and wonderful!

Here's home! 
Disclaimer* The lights are now fixed!

My first week was pretty good, my classes were all easy to find and I liked all my professors! The work load has kinda begun now that the second week is here, but its still all good! I kinda struggled in the beginning of the week, because I knew nobody, and I kinda felt like a burden to my suite-mates, but that all has pretty much went away. I met some of my suite-mates friends(now my friends too) and we hit it off pretty well!

I really love this campus, I haven't really taken any photos of it, but it is beyond beautiful, and smallish, just how I wanted it. I wouldn't trade this campus for any other! Not to mention the amaaaaaaazing fishing pier that is on our campus!

At clubs night, I signed up for a few churches, dive club, fishing club, and the sailing team. I really thought diving and fishing would be the main groups that I joined, but the one I really really enjoyed was the Sailing team! I went to my first sailing practice on Tuesday, and it was crazy. I thought that I would be stuck learning or reading a book about knots and sails, but, I ended up out on the water. In a real sailboat, scared for my life. It was so overwhelming and crazy. I got paired up with the coach of team, of course, He wanted me to do sooooooooooo much more than everyone else was doing. Lets just say, I had my feet under some old dusty straps and was leaning waaaaaaaaaay out over the side of a tiny sailboat, while steering the dang thing by the end of the three hours out there. It was sooo complicated and painful to learn, i'm very bruised up and sore everywhere, but I had an amazing time and would really love to do it again!
On another note, IM GOING HOME THIS WEEKEND! I'm so excited to see my puppies!! And family/friends of course. I get to make the long trek home tomorrow after class! I really would like to be going to the game (AandM vs RICE) BTHO rice!!!!!!!!!! But home I go!
Here are some random pics from my first two weeks!
