I've been here about 4 weeks now. I think I'm getting into the swing of things. Brittany (my friend and roommate) and I are living in a tiny studio type apartment. There is no stove or oven and only one bed. Our friend's Ryan and Heather let us borrow their air mattress which has helped a lot. There's an apartment available around mid-October that we will be moving into. It's a one bed room but also a futon couch (a second bed). It's furnished with pots and pans, dishes, bed, and a washer and dryer. It'll be pretty nice, especially with a bit more privacy. One of the big perks about the place we're at now is the gigantic TV. The other place we'll be moving into has a TV about the size of my computer screen. Sooooo that'll suck. But oh well, can't have everything.
I just bought a plane ticket to Minneapolis to visit Chris October 5th through the 9th. I can't wait! It's been super difficult to have started our relationship this past summer and then so quickly be separated by distance. So far the time difference hasn't effected us that bad. Mostly I just make him stay up late talking to me, which I feel bad about sometimes... Hopefully the next two and half weeks will go by quickly. 16 more days!
So, this week I start doing Zumba classes at the fitness center in town. I'm a little nervous about doing it in the racquetball room. It might be too echoey in there. Hopefully a bunch of people show up too. Also, I've started lifeguarding at the pool there, so that's been fun.
LACEY!! I miss you. You should come visit Wrangell sometime! Spring break?!?! Bring Casey with you when you come. OR how about Thanksgiving? Either or would work for me!
Okay, now I'll leave you with some photos...
