College, week one

So, I'm finally here. I have to admit, a lot of times I didn't think I would. I'm at college. The almighty destination for so many high school students, revered for it's parties, social life, and freedom from the brutal oppression of parents.
I feel nearly the same as before, just more sore and poorer. :P
Honestly, this last week has been so physically exhausting that I haven't had time to really think of those at home. My schedule has basically gone along these lines.
6:30 - Get waken up obnoxiously by the garbage truck outside Swarthout parking lot
7:00 - Breakfast in the commons with the team
9:00 - CC practice, usually around five or six miles
11:30 - practice is finished; back to my dorm to shower, freshen up, and head to lunch with the guys
12:30 - finish lunch, go hang around at Frontier Hall with the guys playing Halo and such
3:00 - CC practice, usually another good four or five miles
5:00 - done with practice; back to shower again and head out to dinner with the guys
7:00ish - figure out something to do with the guys, usually more Halo or N64
10:00 - back to the dorm room for night time.

repeat 6x

Yeah, and we fit camping in the middle of the week too, which was super fun, but man am I POOPED.
Only one more week of double practice until school starts and we go to once a week and normality ensures. My cross country experience here is enough for an entirely different blog post, which will come at a later time.
I can't say I don't mind, though. The guys in CC are some of the coolest people I've met. They're quirky, fun, and chill, willing to do pretty much anything. Sure, they can kick my butt with their "easy" 7:00 pace on nearly all of our runs, but I'll grow into it. The girls are too, and I'm not even saying that in a sexual way. They're all legitimately nice.
Ultimately, it's pretty clear who's all freshmen, cuz we're all scared, quiet, and nervous. But we'll grow out of that, too.
In time, people. Everything comes in time. Enjoy where you're at now, because you will look back and miss is.

Gotta go, my laundry's done. I have to pay for this, now. -_-
