My life has been a mini Texas tornado this past week or so. I've been "counseling" incoming freshmen for the past week out at Camp Texas where it was hot as dickens and fun as chickens... (?) By "counseling," I mean basically just running around, screaming, and having a ton of fun with them and showing them that not only is it OK, but it's cool, to be weird. (At least at UT.) I was Simba in a little counselor Lion King performance and got yogurt smeared all over my face at breakfast by Rafiki. The Lion King performance is a hit every year at camp. The campers were so awesome and so much fun; I hope they're all ready and excited to start life at UT!! Camp was a little bittersweet this year because it was my last time to be a counselor, but I couldn't have asked for better sessions!
The day I returned from camp I moved into my new apartment (running on three hours of sleep). It's all coming together really nicely, and I'm so excited for the semester ahead of me! We still need living room furniture, so for now we are channeling our inner-Japanese spirits and eating and watching tv on the floor. Not too bad though, I must say.
Not ready for school to start in a week. Can't believe it's junior year already! I read the syllabus for one of my classes today, and my professor charges $5 every time a student's phone goes off in class, and the proceeds are donated to a charity of the class' choice. Ha, only in Austin...
