That might be in part to my roommate not being here and it also might be in part to me not getting back into my dorm room until 3:00 in the morning.
After a week of being slightly uneasy and feeling out of place with the people i was meeting, my first friday was pretty much...amazing. And so very quintessentially "collegey"
But before I get to that i'll start with explaining my first day of classes. So I had psychology, statistics, and biology. All three of those classes were massive lecture classes. I'm realizing the benefits and disadvantages to classes that are that big already. It's really nice that I can text or sleep or, basically, do anything I want while the class is going on. It's bad because you realize the professor is not going to know who the hell you are the entire semester probably. And you also probably won't meet half the people you're in class. Like yesterday I realized one of the girls in my suite is actually in my psych class...I had no idea! My first day of classes also let me see that there is no shortage of very cute boys here. And they're all tall and thin and look oh so Richmond. <-- That's one of the things that I found I had perfected before I got here...looking like i belong in richmond. It's nice to know I have that down. haha.
So on to friday. Well originally I was facing the weekend with something less then enthusiasm. Having no friday classes seemed a lot less welcome when you have nothing to do with that time. And since I'd already been sitting around for three days prior to the first day of classes, I wasn't looking forward to another three days of it. I spent most of Friday morning sitting around taking advantage of having no roommate for the day and playing my music on my speakers and itunes shopping. I had a bonding sesh in my suite's living room with some of the girls. Our RA, Kendra, joined in. She's this sassy black girl that's hilarious and really really nice and loves white boys. hahahaha.
After the bonding sesh me and one of the other nursing girls, Erica went to the SOVO Fair at the Siegal Center. I'm not sure if every other school calls it SOVO but it's basically all the student organizations and clubs that are offered at VCU. It was interesting, but I didn't see anything I was really into. And the only bad thing about going with Erica is she's really into all the student ministry stuff at VCU and I had to follow her around to all the different booths about it and listen to people "jesus talk" it was slightly uncomfortable. I left the SOVO Fair early though to go with my brother and Keith to the Richmond airport to meet my mom and pick up all the things I left at home before she left for Ohio for the weekend. I got my nalgene...and that is the most important thing. :-P
After my brother dropped me off at Brandt, me and my friend Kae decided to meet up for dinner at Shafer. The plus side to hanging out with Kae so much is that she knows basically everyone at VCU. She said practically all of her graduating class came to VCU. So it's working to my advantage. After dinner we met up with her sophomore friend, Sammy. We all decided to go to this club (i don't remember the name now) Kae told me that usually it's really ghetto and has only black people there, but one friday every month this company takes it over and it's not sketchy anymore. So we chilled around campus deciding what to wear and then around 11:00 we went over to Sammy's apartment. Her apartment is amazing! It's huge and she shares it with these three guys: Andy, Matt, and Scott. Let me tell you, Andy was amazingly cute! They were all chilling while me, Kae, and Sammy got ready. I of course was totally at ease as I sipped my "Mike's Harder" it was very good. But don't worry, I was being totally responsible. I only drank about 3/4 of one and I was only slightly tipsy. Around 12:30 we headed out to the club and met up with Kae and Sammy's gay hispanic friends Steven. He was...hilarious!! And then we also picked up their friend Ivanna. She was also really nice. The club was crazy and really funn and also very Richmond. There were lots of indie hipsters there and such. It's basically like prom or homecoming but a hundred times hotter and with hundreds more people. It was real real funn! A little before 2:00 me and Kae peaced out and headed back to our dorms. I was all ready to take a long shower (to wash the smell of smoke off of me) and drop into bed, but when I got up to my floor I ran into Erica going into the boys' room and I decided to join her.
Erica, Kendra, Giovanni, and Kyle were all waiting up for the other two boys Ryan and Gil to get back from a frat party. They were all betting that Ryan, who is very awkward and annoying, had gotten very drunk and would make a fool of himself. We kept calling Ryan's phone and putting him on speaker phone while he rambled on because he was so drunk. Then when he finally got back we had to coax him into getting into a shower and going to bed, so we put him in his room and waited out in the living room. But then we couldn't hear any movement in the room so Kendra went in to check, only to find him totally naked. So she goes running and screaming from the room and all of us get out of their quick in case he thinks it's a good idea to come out into the living room without clothing on. We all took refuge in Kendra's room. But then Ryan got really mad and punched the wall. :-S and then went to sleep. hahaha. It was nice though because I ended up bonding with Kyle and Kendra a lot more. And they're both cool people (and Kyle is also very very cute) .
Now it's nearly 2:00 on Saturday, I still haven't gotten out of my pjs and I just ate a bowl of Ramen. :-) I'm waiting around for tonight, me and Kae are going to see her friend, Josh's band play nearby. So that should be funn.
I know my post might be kind of boring but I figured I should fill you in since I finally did something interesting with my time here.
Love you guys!
