Some things I have learned (about life) so far this school year:

1) Random people are fun to live with. I mean, I didn't know any of my roomates coming in, and it has turned out to be fantastic....despite the time where I walked in to a kitchen filled with smoke, with Kyle standing at the stove cooking a steak in a frying pan, as his friend Garrett fanning the smoke detector with a blanket so it wouldn't go off! Good times!

2) Guys can eat a lot of chicken nuggets. I don't mean 8 nuggets....I'm talking like 20 nuggets.....at least! Nothing makes a better balanced meal than 20 nuggets! :P

3) Low-maintenance is the way to be! It's funny, because the day last week very I put very little to no effort into getting ready (simply because of lack of energy), I got more compliments on how I looked than ever before. It's strange how that works, but I won't lie....I was very flattered!

4) I hate Hindemith Rhythm Studies! Well, hate is a strong word....maybe dislike is a better description, but I'm sorry...I was not made to be able to sing, conduct, and tap at the same time. What will he ask for next?? For me to dance or do a handstand at the same time?!?! I don't think so!

5) Prank phone calls suck! So if for any reason the people who have called me twice, pretending to speak foreign accents, at 1:00 in the morning, are reading this, please stop.....I mean it!! Or you'll have to suffer my wrath! :P

6) Always wear socks and long pants to the beach at this time of year! Stupid sand fleas. I had never even heard of sand fleas until this year, when I got a multitude of bites all over my feet on one of our night time walks to the beach. They are itchier than you could possibly imagine!! I thought I was going to go crazy!!
