New friends no more tears

Yesterday was a great day because of some new friends. I woke up and my roommate and I got ready and went had breakfast, a amazing blueberry tart. Than off for some shopping, we found a sweet affordable mall right outside the city. I won't lie I did buy a couple things, I couldn't help myself. We had a great time though. As soon as we got back we met up with a couple other friends for sushi, this was my first time trying it. And it was great! I loved it! Than off to the basketball game we all went. Our school has only had athletics for two years but we did really well, girls lost but was in overtime. And the boys won! They even had free food and drinks. Also they had a sign up for all the clubs b4 the game. So I signed up for fashion club, and a magazine club :) we also got free long sleeve school shirts, there really nice. So than we meet two more girls that joined our group....Aww now I have friends!!!! After the game we checked out everyone's dorm than game back to mine in the Hilton. All of them loved and we decided that Amber and I are definitely throwing a super bowl party! So we all Hung out ordered pizza, noticed the people down the hall had a suspicious odor coming from there room, so we knock and warn everyone partying in there how noticeable they are lol! Wow I am in California for sure. But the best part of this day was I had some really mean nasty things going on over my phone from a certain somebody, everyone knows from home, and it made me cry. I walk back up to my new friends crying and they all gave me a hug and made me feel better. I hate crying in front of people...so I was embarrassed hut glad I found some awesome supportive friends. Even this morning I woke up trying to resolve last nights problem on my phone, as my roommate has to listen. And was upset, so I'm staying in the dorm for some me time. Gonna doll my self up. And relax.

But amber, my roommate, being the sweetheart she is asked if I was ok, and offered to bring me some lunch when the workshop is done. Makes me feel good to know I have support here and not just at home!

  1. I'm glad that you are building a support system out there. That is SO SO important.
    I will only tell you once, because you are an adult and can take care of yourself, but beware the eating out and shopping. It seems small, and you think "Oh, it's only $5!" (or whatever small amount), but it adds up really quickly, and then you are totally broke, or worse, you owe money.
    Also, don't sign up for a credit card. I think that was one of the worst things I did for my financial future when I was in college. I'm still paying on those same cards, even though the limit isn't high. It seems hard to get out of that rut/habit. Much easier to just not start it!

  2. Thanks Becky, don't worry I'm being careful. And I know better than to get a credit card. And I'm really lucky everyone I have met has been awesome!

  4. Good point Becky! I know I appreciate advice and hate learning painful lessons.

    So sorry Kim that you had some terrible phone message(s)? from back home. Do NOT let it get you down. You have to move forward, but holing up in your room can fuel depression. Then again, sometimes you just need some "me" time.

    Just mentioning it. :-)
