$162.21

I left Salt Lake Tuesday morning at 8:20 AM. $261.21 in gas later, I made it to Kent State in Ohio. It was Thursday at 4:30 PM. Wow. A round trip ticket from SLC to Cleveland is like $400. So I think I made a good choice in driving. PS The Civic Rocks!

My first few days of work were tiring, but I'm starting to feel more comfortable. I have one neat roomy who is a cutie, and the other one (who I'll share a room with) should be moving in sometime today. We've been saying that for days now and she still isn't here, but I swear...she HAS to be in by today.

I found a church and was able to go to go to Sacrament before hurrying to work. You'd think that a school as big as Kent would have a church or something, but NO...this isn't Utah. There is a singles branch that meets, but they meet at 11 am so I'd never be able to go. Thats ok..I'll probably crash the Memorial Day pancake breakfast next Monday. Yummy.

I went for a 4 mile run this morning and saw like a tiny bit of the campus. This place is so big. Now I'm in the library on the 9th (out of 15) floor. Its pretty deserted up here and I like it. I'll probably check out a book today, but I have no idea how I'll find what I want in this maze.

Everything is goin splendid. I'm happy for humidity again. My skin doesn't feel like sand paper anymore. Love it.

Finally

So...I finally found a computer on this GINORMOUS campus in this HUGE library. Its Saturday afternoon so...I'm the only one here. I think my roomies and I will probably get wireless Internet even though is way overpriced. If that happens, then I'll be a lot more regular with the posts.

For the record: If you take a look at the picture of me with the cone, you will see that it is actually a TWIST cone...not plain Vanilla.

I'm way out of my league here in the theater world. Everyone I'm working with has Stage Managed tons of shows and most of them are either Seniors or have degrees in Stage Management. Whatevs. I'm hoping that my natural talent, desire to learn, hard work, and all that jazz makes up for my lack of experience.

The GPS thing is ridiculously awesome...I'd be lost without it. More updates later!

In Nebraska living the good life

The drive wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I stopped a couple of times, made good time, and am ready to go party it up in Northe Platte, Nebraska!


The awesome sunglasses Dad gave me. So comfortable and effective!

In honor of Dad

I almost stopped for another 50 cent cone in Cheyenne, but I made the wise decision not to.


It took me probably 15 seconds to set up the camera and take this picture (including the 10 second countdown). I love my new tripod.
