Just a quick recap of a few of my festivities over break:
- I went home to Minnesota for the first two weeks. My best friend Parris actually came with me for the first week. Highlights of my trip home included: multiple trips to the Mall of America, Snowboarding for the first time, family game nights and Christmas traditions of church and presents. I had a great time at home but I was excited to get back to the California weather.
- A few days after I got home I headed to Bakersfield for a week. I stayed with my best friend Parris. We had a lot of fun going shopping and eating at all of our favorite restaurants. We also made sure we had time to party a bit, and visit her sister in Long Beach.
- After I went to Bakersfield, Parris came down to Santa Barbara for a little last minute fun before the semester began. We actually met some friends playing volleyball and joined in on the fun, but thats another story.. haha. We hung out at the beach and did a few last things downtown before we began to pack up all of my things for my big move to Isla Vista.
- On Sunday, my old tutor and family friend drove down from Bakersfield and helped me pack up my remaining things and we hauled all of my things to Tropicana Gardens in Isla Vista. I was excited to find out I actually knew my roommate, and my other suite mates are really cool. The only thing that isn't my favorite is the food at Trop. But other than that I think it was a great decision to move!
I'm not sure why but I was honestly ready to get back in the swing of things this semester. I was really excited for all of the change and to just be closer to other college kids in Isla Vista. It is definitely a big change from downtown, but I think it is a very positive change for myself!I'm really excited to see what this semester has in store, It's definitely going to be a great one!
Have a great first week of class everyone!
