Margo, the college student

So as you might have noticed, I haven't written any blogs for a while. That's because school happened and I just don't have much free time with homework, practicing, church, social life, and just keeping active. Oh and sleep, I've missed a lot of that lately. I wake up, actually my alarm goes off at 7 AM Mon-Thurs, and I wake up sometime around there. I've been depending on my bike much more because walking takes too long and that means I have to get ready earlier too. My leg muscles are sure getting a work out.
This week is the 3rd week of school, only 13 more weeks left until I get a whole month off!! YAY! I'm liking my classes but I would rather socialize and hang out with fun people than stay home and do homework so I give and take. Last night I was up till 1:30 writing a 3 page paper that was due today at 9:10 AM. My paper actually turned out to be 4 pages and that's not too bad for starting it at 8 last night. I was going to start it on Tuesday but I really wanted to go to Ultimate Frisbee cause I've missed the past couple times so that's why I had to write it all last night. But I feel great this morning and I only have one more class today, Interior Design.
My first "official" date was two weeks ago. This guy Jacob asked for my number after a fireside, I had known him for a couple weeks before this and then we went to a deer farm later that week. It was fun and interesting, after the farm we went on some random road, just taking an adventure and it actually brought us back to Flagstaff. Then the next week he asked me to go to dinner with him, we wanted to go to a mexican restaurant but it was closed because it was labor day so we went to Subway instead.
After me and Jacob went to the deer farm and our little date, I went to an institute dance later that night and it was lame at first but then it became fun. Guys actually asked me which was nice and Cardon counted for like 3 or 4 dances. But anyway, my life isn't all about boys...just most of it. But I'm having lots of fun and my plan is to just not get attached and then I won't get jealous or hurt, it's not easy but it's working.
I cut my first watermelon, now I know why the men always do it at outings. It was scrumptious. I am eating well for those in my family who knew how I wasn't hungry like all summer. Marching band is getting easier but it still is hard. I found out that I can fake it and still sound great. I'm pretty good at marching, I didn't mess up at the NAU vs. UofA football game down in Tucson. The bus rides were pretty long though going down to Tucson. We left Friday afternoon and played at one high school football game in Mesa/Phoenix before their game started, known as pre-game show, and then we packed back up into the bus and headed to another high school game just down the road and played at their half time. Then after that, it was about 9:30 PM we left for Tucson. We got to Tucson around 12 and stayed at a Hilton hotel. Those beds are so nice, that's what I loved most about the hotel. Saturday morning we practiced in the morning at a high school near Tucson, Cienega High, and it reminded me why I wanted to go to school in Flagstaff. Then we had like a 4 hour break and I got to see my family for a little bit. Then we did some pre game pep rally things for NAU before the game and after that headed into the stadium and faced the dispicable UofA fans. Not all of them are dispicable but a lot of them are really mean. Then Sunday we headed home at 9:30 AM and I didn't get home to Flag until 3:30PM. It was a long bus ride home and I was so glad when it was over.
I better get wrappin this up, I need to head to class in about 20 minutes. My first psychology exam is tomorrow and I'll need to study for that tonight. And then Jacob is coming over to eat dinner with us, Levi Garner came up to visit so we're eating all our meals together. I like it, it means I don't have to cook for myself. I hope I can find some time to study, I will, I sent Russ, one guy that came to eat dinner with us last night, home cause I needed to buckle down and write my paper. Ha, but then I took like an hour break around 11 and went over to Jacob's and then Cardon's house just so I could really get away from all my writing. Anyway, if any of you want to call me or write, feel free to do so. I'll get back to you sometime, whenever I can find the time. I was supposed to be taking a nap right now but I needed to update everyone, especially mom...sorry mom. Talk at ya later!!
