first night---a date already??

Hey everyone,

just a quick note to let you know that my first night is awesome! I only forgot lightbulbs, but Karin (my roomie) did too, and her brother (Karl) has a car so we will be running out to get thouse some time. My room looks good, I'm excited. Two windows! Yay! and everything is working out great.

Tonight we met in our "UPods" they're the groups from our university seminar classes, and we're doing service projects on Saturday with them. My group is amazing, we have four girls from Colorado! And my leader is so sweet she's going to take me to her church on sunday, it's a cool mix of liturgical and modernness she said, so I'm excited. THe guy leader is pretty sarcastic and funny.


Then we had floor meetings--boring but great. My RA is amazing.


After that we had "DickerEllas." All the girls in Hill Hall went into the lounge and they kicked out the boys, and then we threw our shoes into the middle--a shoe. The guys came back in and had to pick a shoe and hold it up to find the girl. Then we went on a date to a resturaunt called Dick's (hence the name dickerEllas, like cinderella). My guy was a sophomore who is here early for Urban Invovlement Ministries. His name is Daniel, which is like the most popular guy name for the incoming class-weird. He was really sweet, he's trying to get me hooked up in UI, so we talked about different things I could do there. And we talked about music (he got excited about U2 and Beatles) and movies (The Sting!) and sech. Pretty much, I was really nervous when I found out what we were doing, but he was really cool. It was awesome to just settle in and feel like I have a guy friend already. He invited me to come watch Arrested Development, his floor buddies are going to start a group sort of thing for it. ahaha. He has a couch and a 27 inch tv! pretty much a party room.

anyway, it is way late so I'm going to bed. Love you all so much!

yeah, pretty much that's what I've been told.

blah, today we went and did "City Quest." in our small groups for one of our classes we went and did service projects all over the city. I painted at a church, it was pretty much amazing. I am still covered in paint.

he was fine, but he's on fifth, and he's a sophomore with established friendships, and i don't really care that much because my brother floor is much awesomer. is that a word?
