School

Well, the first week of classes is OVER. Wow. It was actually very enjoyable. I needed to get out and do something different. I met a few people and like my classes... Public Speaking and English II. My professors are great. My public speaking professor is lovely. She is laid back, easy going and it appears that it's going to be a good class. English II professor on the other hand is hard to read. She is nice, calls us all 'darlings' often and announced today that she is very politically incorrect. We've all noticed this by this point. She has no reserves with her verbiage. Quite entertaining.

Thomas and I have a donut shop here in Port Arthur that we LOVE. They're a bakery... makes all the difference in the world. I have been trying really hard to eat healthier and more whole grains and stuff like that so my blood sugar stays in check more often. Well, I told Thomas we could spend just a few dollars and have donuts to celebrate my first day of class. They were EXCELLENT.


Got my parking pass on Monday and waiting for my student ID to come in the mail. My campus is very pretty once your in it and walking around. Took a few pics for ya...




Thomas' aunt Helen called last night and invited us over for ribs and other yummy food on Sunday. I'm looking forward to it and i'm not. Long story. It will be super nice to be out and about and seeing the scenery and visiting with family. I'm especially looking forward to a super yummy dinner. I don't know that I've ever had anything that Uncle Jessie cooked that I didn't like. AND we get to watch the Cowboys kick some Viking ASS! That'll be the best part, I think. =)

Getting ready to video chat with my brother. Talk atcha in a few days. ;)

We only went to the bakery once and we shared what the pics are of... actually I only had 1 bite of the powered donut and half the cinnamon thing. No, I haven't been working out. Planning on it today though. I've been lazy AND severe headaches daily make it difficult to do much. It has been on my mind though. I am doing pretty well keeping my calorie intake pretty low and keeping in mind when i'm eating as well. Thanks for holding me accountable Sam!
