The Day of Obstacles

Alright so yesterday was my first day of school and boy was it a dozy! The night before I went to bed around 9:30, which was so hard for me seeing how I usually stay up much later. But I found that my body did not like this idea of an early night, so I lied awake for a while. I did finally reach the wonderful stage of R.E.M (rapid eye movement) and then it was snatched from me. I had to wake up around 4:45am but for some reason my body thought it would be cool to get a head start, so I ended up waking up at 3:30. So I just play around on the Internet. Once I got ready and on my way to make that hour and fifteen minute drive, nothing but rain in my sight. I have Tropical Storm Fay to thank for that. So it was just a miserable drive down there on top of being tired. Things were going great until I got to chapel and my body started to settle down, and I started to fall asleep. Did I mention how incredible tired I was. Later that day I had my voice audition to find out whether or not I'd be accepted into the music program. Well I was accepted YAY!!!!!!
As I was walking to my car I noticed a little pink piece of paper on my windshield. I looked around to see if any other car was decorated with this lovely accent paper. Sure enough I took it off and was welcomed with a ticket. Are you kidding me, the first day of class, no warning or anything. They said that I was blocking the walking way....whatever, I was parked in front of it but it wasn't blocked and besides it was a grass parking lot how was I supposed to know where to park. And on my way home I got lost and it was pouring once again. So what should have taken me an hour and fifteen minutes took me almost two and a half hours to get home. Once I got home I ate dinner and went to bed, because I was exhausted. I was in bed by 8am and I didn't wake up until 7:30 this morning. If my math is correct that is 11 1/2hrs, Holy Hannah! (And all I want to do today is take a nap, as if I didn't get enough sleep or something.) I am going to be crazy busy this semester, I have five classes, and have to get 14 books, and a private voice lesson . In a couple of the classes I have to journal on the books I read. There are a few classes that I am concerned about but there are a couple classes that I am completely excited about. I am also looking to get involved with the worship team on campus which should be tons of fun.

That was my first day of classes in a nut shell, hopefully this was not a preview for what is to come.
