College Orientation

The only real thing I have to add here is that I did have notes about orientation but five moves later (to college, from college, to college, from college, and then switching rooms in my house), the notes are long gone. To sum it up, I went to breakfast, tried not to be too awkward, attended the seminars, signed up for classes, fought with advisors about an ACT score that hadn't been entered right in the system - which would required me taking remedial math if it hadn't gotten fixed and I hadn't noticed it - and talking to the English department, my trip was mostly uneventful. I made one friend, Michael, which didn't last long once college actually started, but then I did become best friends with his roommate, Taylor, so I guess that's okay... my parents did rescue me for the second night, we went to Olive Garden, and then after one more day of schedules being confirmed, t-shirts being bought with the school name on it, and my id being made, I was free to go. I happily returned home.

Sorry there isn't more but I'm tired and defeated from the lack of job opportunities in my community...
