Finding My Place
Finally, after joining my house and going through a week of class things are shaping up. I have met this cool girl and we are hanging out. The guys in the house are great. The party scene is a blast. I did have to change my major though. Math was always something that I was good at, but now I do not enjoy it at all. I think I will switch over to something like Education.
I have been getting calls from these folks with Campus Crusade, but I am just not sure about the whole Jesus thing. I will just keep putting them off, after all things are going well for me right now. I got the friends, the girlfriend and an identity on campus.

Fraternity Rush
It was great to go through "RUSH" I met tons of people. I enjoyed all the free food and the attention they give us. There are some good houses and some bad houses, but I am confident I will get in the right house. The whole idea of having 40 fraternity brothers is great. I will have a instant identity and enjoy being significant. I will sign my bid card tomorrow and hopefully move out of the dorm and into the house.

I have heard some stories of being humiliated as you go through pledging a fraternity, but I am not concerned. These guys seem trusthworthy and authentic. The other reality is all the girls that come over to the house will be awesome. I am hoping to lock in a girlfriend at weeks end.

Move In Day
Today was the big move in day. My parents drove me crazy as my mother was way too involved and my dad just kept telling me to major in business and everything would just fall into place. He constantly is presurring me to follow in his footsteps, but I dont know. It was so hot today and I did not see any familiar faces. There were some folks in bright orange T-shirts that helped me move in and told me about some picnic I could check out. If other people in my hall go then I will check it out.
Well now that I am really free from my folks and my old high school identity I can do whatever I want. This freedom will be great!!! The fraternities have already come over and I will head off to a party tomorrow night. More later

"One Week Away"
It is hard to believe that I am only one week away from the beginning of my college career. I am so excited to finally get away from home and start my new life. I would be lying to say that I am not a little anxious about this. I had tons of friends in high school and now I must start over again. I do not know what my major will be, who I will hang out with or even who I am rooming with. I do wonder if I will find my future spouse. Everyone talks about coming to college and finding their spouse. I have also heard that the choices I make now in college will impact the remainder of my life. What I believe? Who I befriend? What career path I choose? Now I am feeling all the pressure...I will report back once I get to school and moved in...
