first two weeks at VT

Well, despite initial fears and a bit of homesickness, things are going just amazingly here. I am having a LOT of fun. We do a lot together. Tonight, we played volleyball and then played manhunt with some other people living here on campus that we just met. I looveee playing outside.

Sunday was probably the best day since I've been here. I woke up and went to one of my friend Andrew's churches and was surprised to see my roommate there, since we had left for supposedly separate churches that morning. So after church Elly, Soo Been (roommate), Andrew, and I went to this waterfall called the Cascades. It was beautiful and there were butterflies all over the place and it was a really pretty day outside. After that, we went to eat at Cabo Fish Taco, and then Soo Been and I went to ice cream with our REU peeps. We finished off the evening with some intense volleyball. So much fun!

There's been a lot of other random goodness too. A couple guys placed bets on them not giving high-fives for a certain amount of time...and now Meeks is required to run around the drillfield dressed in drag, and Sir has to wear makeup to work one day. Yessss.

So I like my project. I'm working on implementing software that lets you storyboard, in short. I'll be able to explain better once I get deeper into it. But for now it's good and I'm enjoying it. I'm learning Adobe Flex (mostly ActionScript 3.0) and enjoying it. Not much of interest to write about with that. Yet.

More later!
