Hi :)

So, its about 7:20am and all is quiet in Burlington, Vermont. The college kids have all fallen asleep, and peace is all around. Hahahahah. Until alarm clocks start ringing around 7:30-8. Breakfast is from 8-9 today, the start of another long but fun day of orientation.
I really think I made the right choice coming here. I know its early, and classes haven't started yet, but still. Everyone is so laid back and awesome, and I can fit right in. Of course, I'm having the same problem that I always have where half of everyone knows my name, and I haven't even met them yet, so I feel terrible.

Yesterday, I was on a boat on Lake Champlain, where I had way too many pieces of pizza (not that I got sick or anything, but still). I tried to stay away from the edges of the boat, as I didn't want to take any risks! Hahah. Anyway, we all got off the boat at about midnight, and we didnt want to wait to be shuttled back by bus, so we just walked back. We're really not that far from the waterfront.

Oh, and yesterday was awesome, because everywhere I turned, I saw someone I knew. That summer launch program I did was priceless. It made the transition so much easier. 

Also, I signed up for my season pass to Sugarbush and I was happy to discover that this year, they have two pass options: You can have access to only Mt. Ellen (far right of that picture) for $30, or, for $100, you can have access to the entire mountain. An adult all-mountain pass is $1,200!!! So, the $100 deal was kind of a no-brainer! Hahahah. I'm so excited to go snowboarding!

My dorm is awesome, we're one of the few that still have a lounge on the first floor. We have a back porch, that can only be accessed by climbing through a bathroom window (we won't try anything yet), and I'm in a double on the third floor, which has two staircases to choose from. On this floor is my double, an RA with a double (but he's the only one in there), a quad, and a quint. Yes, a quint. There are five people in there. It's actually not as bad as it sounds. The room is split off into two parts, so, its really more like a triple and a double.

Let me get up to see if I can get some pictures off my camera to show you guys.

Also, I need to stock up on food, so when I get hungry in the early morning/late night, I have things to munch on!
