Crazy!

Yes, the time you see on this post is correct. It is nearly 4 AM and here I sit... which is most unfortunate because I need to get up in around 6 hours. Alas.

But it was entirely worth it. The past couple weeks have been incredibly tumultuous, but I do love it here. The low moments balance out with nights like this, when I feel so at peace and free and alive. There's an indescribable joy that comes from walking in the cold night air to visit the Grotto at 2 or 3 in the morning. Whether it's sitting in a crowd of hundreds on the quad watching the ND football game, spilling ice cream all over myself at Reckers (the 24 hour restaurant) or just watching a movie or talking with the girls, the chaos always seems to find some sort of balance. I've already learned that in order to make the most of my college experience I need to get out and try things, so I have. And the result is... pleasing. Today was probably the most memorable of all the days I've been here, for a number of reasons. :-) I won't even attempt to explain my full day, but let's just say there were several adventures! As anxious as I've been at times, I know it's all going to be okay. I'm slowly finding my little niche and getting to know a lot more of the girls here a lot better. Things will only get better from here too, and I cannot wait!

So fortunately for you, this is a post made in one of my happy-go-lucky, barely awake moods. Fear not - I do have low times. But I'd rather keep those to myself and just share the highs! Love you and God bless, sorry I don't have time to post more often.
