The update you all have been waiting for...

Wow. I can't believe how long it's been since I've updated. Far too long and I feel sort of guilty. My only consolation is that it hasn't been as long as Justin who still hasn't updated since he left D.C.!!!

Anyway I don't even know where to start. So I'll throw this out there, that if any of you have questions you want to ask about how everything is, comment and I'll respond. hehe.

Hmm perhaps I'll make a list of all the great things that I have been going on. The are in no order in particular.

1. I really love walking around campus now and knowing people. I'm so glad that I picked Elon. A small school was definitely the way to go for me. I'm still meeting a bunch of new people, but I really love having familiar faces. I also love seeing random people that I kind of know and striking up conversation with them. That's always fun, although a but unnerving when they know your name but you don't know their's!

2. My schedule is amazingly easy. My advisor is a bit worried since I have basically no academics. But that's alright. All my classes are amazing. Even Global which is making me consider going into Sociology. I'm gonna meet up with Tom (my global teacher) who has a dr. in cultural anthropology and talk about it all. Next semester It looks like I'll be taking BA Acting, Latin, Intro to Sociology, Model UN, Web Design (It's a two credit course that is interesting and will fill the rest of my science general ed req.) Hopefully Two dance classes and private voice which will give me a nice rounded 18 hour credit load again and will probably be slightly more challenging.

3. Again my schedule is amazingly easy. Global is fun, although a lot of work. Tech producion is pretty cool. Learning a lot of construction stuff. Been tying knots. Intro to theatre is nice as we watch movies every Monday. hehe. Gotta love college. And then I have Make-up Application and Design which is a lot of fun. Had to design an old Librarian with make up for homework tonight. It's harder than you think. And it requires me to be artistic! It's a lot better than I expected it to be too!

4. Jill is the supercoolest roommate in the world. I love her! It was such a good idea rooming together. Our suitemates are awesome too. Cassandra went back home so Emily moved in with Heath. and now we only have eight to our two stalls but that's not problem seeing as we haven't had any issues with showers as of yet. Or at least I haven't. Jill has done an AMAZING job decoraring our suite. The mural of a phoenix on the wall is great! and she's taken pictures of all of the suite mates and hunge them in the front hall way. And then the other wall is going to be all of the visitors to the suite.

5. Justin is awesometastic. It's amazing being down here with him. We haven't gotten sick of each other yet. Although we do 'fight' constantly. I tell him I hate him on a regular basis so as you can see, we have a very strong foundation for our relationship. :P But seriously he is just awesome. He's rubbing off on me. I drink juice all time, Have been listening to 'cat throw up' music (sorry inside joke between me Jill and Justin, the three of us together are hilarious!), I actually eat BREAKFAST!! I'm watching anime, which by the way, I have no idea why I was against it all those years ago or thought it was dumb. I've only watched half of one series and I already enjoy it and want to see more. And then with all the crap that's been going on. Moodswings and trips to the Emergency Room, Justin has been absolutely amazing (Jill and Elyse T. as well) and I am so happy. (I just feel sorta bad for including all this stuff when I know some of you are going through withdrawl with your bfs at home)

6. Um my eyes are starting to cross so I think I'm gonna go. but I'll write more soon! Just wanted to update so you know that I was still alive and loving every second of Elon!!!!

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!

Hehe. Um yeah that's because A. I just finished watching Pride and Prejudice B. There are so many things and people to love in life and C. I am the proud owner of 25 credits before I even started my fall freshman semester! Holy Crap! I love Syracuse University.

I already knew I had 8 from my US History and English
But then I just randomly checked Elon Ontrack and I am SOOOOO glad I did because they accepted 17 credits and they messed up with something. hehe
I have 4 for Calc
I have 7 for Bio, I'm not sure why but they didn't include one lab I took. They counted it as a repeat, but I am going to call the registrars office and ask about that.
They gave me 4 for Public Policy and It counts towards me General Studies Requirement!
And then they gave me three for one English course well the spring semester. Oh My God!!! this is soooo awesome.

I have friggin 25, possibly 26 if I figure out why they decided that I took Bio 113 twice which I didn't it was Bio 114. lol
And then at the end of this semester I will definitely have 41 and if I am lucky 44. And then by the end of spring semester I will almost be a junior! That's insane!!!

Ahh thank you syracuse university!!! Thank you Elon!!!!

In which we count all the ways Elyse should be considered Obsessive Compulsive

In the past TWO days I have:

1. Packed all my school supplies, electronics, bath supplies and most of my clothes for Elon
2. Gone through my CD collection to decide which CD's I would bring with me and which I would leave behind.
3. Organized all my Itunes by a unique grouping.
4. Gone through all my papers in my desk and decided which need to be taken to Elon and which could be left behind.
5. Organized, labelled and recorded various elements of my mom's bill system
6. Looked at the majors and classes I wish to take and figured out a four year plan to get all my credits
7. I'm sure there is more but I can't remember them at this second. hehe

Life is going well though. Have been talking to Justin's friends, well at least Sarah and Rachel, which has been mucho enjoyable. Saw that National Geographic Penguin movie the other day. That was awesome! I want a penguin!!! Um and oh yeah I also found a bunch of scholarships to apply for.

Hmm I need to go unload the car, but I just thought like telling you all how crazy I've been, so you can inevitably laugh at me!
