oops! I did it again.

I probably shouldn't write this here for all to see and know just how confused I get with directions... but I will. For your entertainment and enjoyment.
After my last post I went to class. When I came back I climbed the three and a half flights of stairs up to my floor and went into my room. As I walked towards my bedroom I thought to myself, "man, those girls sure cleaned up in here. . . and what did they do with Erica's couch? I thought we wanted it! And - oh no!!" I actually did walk in this time and it really did take me a while to figure out what had happened. Luckily enough either no one was there or they were in the back and I got out before they noticed. That woulda been awkward...

and back again.

It's been a while so here's a bit of an update.

A week ago I booked a ferry ride to Milwaukee to see Eric and the suegros before heading back to Dordt. A few hours before I left to go there, I got a phone call saying the ferry was canceled (boat needed working on) so I got a full refund AND there was a bus available to take me to Milwaukee for free! Oh happy day!

In Milwaukee I went to an art museum, went roller blading, went to the cheesecake factory, and saw the Bourne Ultimatum. I also found a ride to take me to Dordt (finally). So Sunday I set out for Dordt and 12hours and 4 cars later I made it to Sioux center! I had to get Eric to take me to highway 80 where I met up with Lisa who was going to take me the rest of the way. About two hours from Sioux Center her car quit working properly. Transmission? So we were stuck on an off-ramp. Luckily a very very nice couple of people our age saw our hazards and offered help. After pushing us into the gas station parking lot and tinkering around for over an hour to see what the problem was, they arranged for one of them to drive us north an hour where we hooked up with a Dordt friend, moved our stuff again!! and finally made it back to Dordt at 3am!

Now I'm settled into the fourth floor of southview and I keep getting lost. Every time I come up the west stairs I think I'm on the east side and vice versa. I just now almost walked into the wrong apartment by accident. I like to think I'm getting better with directions but...

I'm sick of work... Sometimes I think the guys there have never seen a girl before. The temps creep me out, the hired workers are full of drama, and the supervisors won't give overtime.
I just got my Dordt bill. All I have to say about that is "uh oh!"

But lifes not all bad. This weekend I'm going to the cabin with my aunt and uncle and Eric is coming too. And there's a canoe/kayak trip planned for that weekend. Then Clayton, my lil brother, comes the following week so I'll get to see him before I go back to school. Then I have another weekend in GR before I head to Milwaukee before I head back to Dordt. :) Busy. And hopefully I can visit Grand Valley State University before I leave. And also Marquette University in Milwaukee.

Oh, and I found the BESTEST place EVER in Grand Rapids. It's called the B.O.B. and it is a restaurant bar by day I think and a pub/club/bar? by night. It has four floors and every floor has a different atmosphere. It's great! Check it out if you're ever in the area.
