So now that I have lived on campus for ....hmmm... like only four days.... I don't really know a lot about it but I am enjoying myself. I am in Village C West on the sixth floor. My dorm is pretty quiet but I still have met quite a bit of new people. We are all in the middle of New Student Orientation or NSO and so it has been crazy and busy! But it is starting to wind down now and classes start tomorrow. I have met very cool people from all over the world and have been welcomed with open arms into the Georgetown family. I can't wait to start softball and even classes just so that I can be on a normal schedule again. I have met my roommate and, even though we don't see a lot of each other since she has volleyball, she has been very nice and this seems like it will be a great year! I said goodbye to my parents on Sunday, it was very sad but they were both excited for my new journey. They are looking for houses this week in Boston so hopefully they will find something that they like. I miss everyone back home and hope to hear and see people soon! So I am pretty bummed that I still haven't gotten to eat at Potbelly but I am hoping that is right around the corner...
Last night we went to this presentation called Pluralism In Action. It was about celebrating and embracing diversity on Georgetown's campus. They read excerpts from different entrance essays and many were shocking from a boy being the breadwinner of the family when he was ten to a girl who was in a refugee camp in the Congo. And yet now that we are all at Georgetown we are united by the fact that we are all Hoyas! We are Georgetown! So I am excited to hear and see all the different viewpoints and cultures that preside here on campus. Well I should probably get back to my day but please keep checking for more updates!
