And They're Off

School is in full swing again, and I have officially survived the first full week with only minor mishaps ranging from forgetting what time chapel started at (I was an hour early and without anything to study) to getting slightly lost while trying to find a class (not my fault, it was printed wrong). My survival was supplemented however by a midweek run to Starbucks for a white chocolate mocha compliments of my mother who gave me a gift card last week. Oh, and Chick-fil-A sponsored breakfast this morning too! The first week is usually the worst for me morning wise because I have to adjust to getting up early again, but since I had both mocha and chicken, all is well.

This is Just a Drill

So, we are sitting inside today confined because of tropical weather. It is seriously raining cats and dogs out there! My only hope is that by the time I fly out of here on Tuesday that all this rain has cleared out and that it didn’t cancel too many flights that will create a backlog. Actually, I don’t really see why they would have cancelled any flights unless there are some serious winds up higher. There’s just a stiff breeze on the ground, and that is exactly why I call this a drill. In the event of a true tropical emergency, electricity would be out, trees would be falling over, water and food would be stockpiled, and flights would have for sure been cancelled.
