I can't believe I'm about to type this, but I've already been in Reno one month! It has been one fast month I'll tell you that. I've already moved three times! As I wrote last week I moved into my 1st apartment! Let me tell you, it was torture! Having to move my things for the 3rd time in a month wasn't something I was looking forward to. After 30 trips up & down stairs all of my things were packed & I was off to move them into my new place. The best part was having my mom up here with me for 2 days! :) It was nice to have a piece of home up here in my new home. My mom drove up Friday morning & as soon as she got here we went to work. My mom had packed all of the extra things I had left at home & also packed my new desk & my new storage cube. After many trips to Walmart, Target, Jcp, & Costco my new home is set. There are a few little things I'd like to do, but I love the way everything turned out. I owe a huge thank you to my mom! Without her I would have been lost. & also another thank you to her for getting me AT&T U-Verse cable TV! I wish she would have been able to stay longer, but that just means I get to go home soon! Don't let my words fool you though, the second she got in the car to leave I cried my eyes out. Being up here all alone has been an adjustment for me, but it's something that's getting easier with time. I've been looking over my schedule & I think I finally picked a weekend for my first trip back home to Henderson :) The last thing my mom told me before she left was pick a date & you'll be home so sure enough I went right inside to my apartment & looked up southwest.com. I can't wait to be home for a few days & just enjoy everything that I've been missing. Last night was my first time sleeping at my new apartment & I made it out alive! I'm a weirdo, I always think that people are going to break in & kill me. I watch too many lifetime movies. I did sleep with my pepper spray under my pillow though. You can never be too careful! I did find out that the 3 surrounding apartments around me are occupied by big guys & they all told me that if I need anything to just scream. I now feel a little better! We've already established our favorite basketball teams & that I will be baking them cookies sometime this week. This definitely makes me feel like I'm Jess from New Girl. Which btw should be coming back on again shortly (yay!) Tonight after class I decided to go check my own mail box for the first time & I got my first piece of mail! & it was from none other than my Aunt J! Thank you so much Aunt J & Uncle Ian! You guys are amazing! It makes me laugh that I got so excited over my first piece of mail, but it's special because it was from my aunt <3 My Aunt J is such a sweet soul. She's one of those people who you can call when you feel a little sad & she will put you in a great mood. She never lets anything or anyone bring her down. That's one of the many reasons I love her. I know no matter what I can always count on her to lend me a shoulder & I will always do the same for her. & with that everyone I will be ending this blog post. I'm tired tonight for some reason. Don't worry, I will write more next week! If anyone wants to see me while I'm home make sure to let me know :)
