Hello, Headache? It's Me, Kara.

So, it's Monday.

I moved into my dorm room today.
I'm not going to lie, it was quite a fiasco.

My family and I had to lug over fifteen boxes up to

the second floor of the residence hall.

It was CRAZY!

Anyway, when my family - grandparents, sister, and mom- left.

I cried. It was really sad. I just felt really lonely.
I don't feel at home... at all.

I feel uncomfortable.
Mostly though, I just feel anxious and nervous.

Especially, because my boss didn't show up today

like she was supposed to. So, I came early for no reason.

I don't know. God placed me here for a reason, I suppose.

You know! I've downloaded some great new songs in these last

few hours. I love "Throw it Back" by Lil' Wayne. My Goodness,

the man has got it down. I love Lil' Wayne. I'd do him. ;-)
Oh! Can't forget Beyonce. I love the choreography in "Single Ladies."

But, I'm tired. I'm signing out.

The First Blog.

I decided to blog.

I'd like to document my college experiences.

Hopefully, I'll have more good than bad.

However, I'd like to begin by saying that I am absolutely thrilled to be a

part of the college community in Klamath Falls, Oregon.

Oregon Institute of Technology (OIT) seems like a wonderful place.

My Top Three Goals For This School Year:
1) Make new (amazing) friends.

2) Get into the nursing program.

3) Be more involved. (ie attend games, student function, etc)

You know, I'm going to help coordinate campus activities, as I am a member of ASOIT, which is the student government body at OIT.
I'm super proud that I have the opportunity to be deeply involved. It took three

interviews and way more phone calls than I can count to get this job!

I am one of the three students who were awarded membership with ASOIT.
I am stoked!

Hmm...On a more personal note:
I leave in five days, and I started packing last night.
I never realized how much ...crap I had in my room.
It's overwhelming.

Also, it's a weird time for me emotionally.

I'm excited to start my own life, but I'm sad that I'm leaving
my whole family behind. I don't want to be the sibling that goes
away to college and only visits once a year! I'd like to be more available
for my little sister and brother.

It's early in the morning and I'm very tired. So, I will definitely be
blogging tomorrow. For now, though, I'm going to bed.
Signing off! Goodnight!
