and it begins

I've successfully completed three weeks of work in the FXS lab.  Tomorrow, I'll add classes to that.  I'm nervous but excited about it, specifically about the 20,000 students and the getting all around campus in 15 minutes or less.

It's storming now, so I need to get off the computer.  The storms out here are BEAUTIFUL!!

Apartment Hunting

Day 2

Whew.  Yesterday Dad and I drove all over Lawrence, KS, looking for a place for me to live next year.  We were a little worried when it seemed like all the places near campus were full for the fall.  But then we stopped by a complex we had only passed by on Wednesday.  Success!  I even put a hold on the apartment to give us 3 days to decide.  We've got another appointment today, and I'm sure we'll drive around a ton too, but at this point I do have a place to live.  It's a bit pricy, but totally worth it since it's head and shoulders above all the other places.  The only problem is that it's not available until Aug. 5.  And I have to start work at the lab July 27.  So we've got to figure out somewhere for me to stay for about 10 days.
