This week has
been the most tiresome period of my life. I feel like a zombie trudging to
class, back to my dorm then back out to babysit and finally back to my dorm to
complete the mountain of assignments I always seem to have. I have become a lot
more efficient and have begun to understand what certain professors require of
me as far as the knowledge I bring to class. I have found a routine and am
beginning to feel more at home here. I love feeling so independent, obviously I
don’t have to pay utility bills so I do not have the same level of independence
as a real adult, but it is still a weird feeling. I love managing my own time
and being able to walk everywhere. Don’t get me wrong I miss driving with a
passion! However, having the possibility to walk a lot is unexpectedly
enjoyable. I love walking along the tree filled sidewalks while rushing to get
to my different babysitting jobs, it is something different that I am in the
midst of experiencing. Perhaps this feeling I have towards walking will
dissipate as the newness of it disappears, but I hope not.
Fall is here!
The colorful leaves have begun filling the streets and sidewalks. I am excited.
I have never experienced an East Coast fall. Everyone says it is the best time
in DC, and I cannot wait to fill my time completing my fall bucket list. I have
to go to a cider mill, an apple orchard, try a Pumpkin Spice Latte, and take
pictures with pumpkins. Halloween is probably one of my favorite holidays; I
love dressing up, being someone completely different and no one even bats an
eye. My main question in regards to fall right now is why is it so hot?! We
went to the baseball game today and I was sweating profusely, it was
disgusting. I have to take two showers a day in order to get rid of the icky,
sticky that clings to me and feel clean.
On a better note
I had my first radio show on Wednesday! I have never done anything similar to
the radio in my life. I decided to step out and try something new because I
love music. Shameless plug, my show is called Driving with the Windows Down and it is every Wednesday from 10-11
pm on wvau.org so tune in. My first show was a bit rocky, but I loved it. I had
so much fun playing music I love for people and speaking about the different
songs. 17 people were listening to my first show and that was amazing! I was so
happy and filled with adrenaline afterwards, trying out to be a DJ has been the
most rewarding experience at AU so far.
Side note I
washed all my laundry including my sheets, then remade my bed. I also cooked
all the frozen chicken from my freezer.
