William Woods University!!!!

So excited!! I've sent in my tuition deposit, financial aid stuff, signed up for classes, and sent in my housing form! I just need to figure out my private loan information and hopefully will be getting my "temporary housing" stuff in the mail soon!

It was really hard to decide....and it's going to be so hard to leave my family {most of my family!} and my boyfriend, and animals behind :( :'(

That was the biggest deterrent for me for not choosing WWU sooner, but after i was reassured over and over that everyone would survive without me, I decided to take the plunge. Dun dun duuunnn!!!!

I'm nervous/excited/hopeful/hesitant/freaked out as well as much much more, but as my sister said about how she decided to go to school out-of-state "I was just ready for a change." And I am. I want this new chapter in my life. I feel like I'm ready for this. Emotionally leaving people I love I will never be ready for, but "getting out of Dodge" is definitely something that can happen :)

It will be three more years of school. Three. Aiiii carumba! I'll be 24! But I will also hopefully be able to have a great job that I love after graduating so it will be worth it.

I also got into all of the classes I wanted to take this semester so ASL 3, Career Seminar in ASL, Ethics and Decision Making, English Composition II, and Intro to Mass Media, here I come! Getting into all of these classes means that I do have a chance of triple majoring, if I so choose. I was most nervous to sign up for these classes because I was coming so late to the game, for the rest of the semesters, I'll be one of the first people to sign up so I'm pretty positive I'll be able to get everything I want and to get it done!

With triple majoring I will have five classes every semester with two semesters of six classes {those two semesters would be Spring 2011 and Fall 2011} and I would be majoring in ASL Interpreting, ASL Studies, and Communications with a concentration in Broadcast Journalism. If I decide to double major with a minor, the minor would be Comm, I just need to see how classes are and if I can handle everything. Eeeeek.

They also have sororities and fraternities on campus so I get to decide if I'm interested in that or not. I am interested, but I definitely need to see what they're like before I decide. All incoming new students are advised to go through rush week, just to meet a bunch of people, so I'll probably go through with it, but I don't know if I will accept a bid or not.

Rush week happens Aug. 18th through the 22nd. Even if I wasn't going to do rush week, I still have to be there Aug. 18th for orientation. Classes start the 23rd.

All new, incoming students are placed in temporary housing until the 22nd, when people decide if they will go Greek or not. Then on the 22nd, after bids are accepted or not, everyone moves into the room they will likely have for the rest of the year, with their permanent room-mate. Auuhhhhhhh!! Super nervous!! Hopefully, no matter if I go Greek or not, I'll end up with an awesome room-mate. That's really one of the toughest things about college, the room-mate. Oh well, if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out!

I just hope that this is the place for me. Where I'll be the next three years for school and that everything works out.

And like my dad and Steven told me, if I don't like WWU, I can always transfer after this year again :)

'Cause it's so much fun transferring!!! Haaaaa.
