Baylor Bound

For those of you who don't know, I'm headed to Baylor this fall. So, as is customary for new students, I attended orientation. At first I was hesitant. You see, being a transfer student is different than being a freshman. To most of the freshmen I was a contagious disease (or at least that's how I felt). However, it just so happens I met some AMAZING people while I was down there who made me realize that I'm going to love Baylor and my experience there (yes, even as a transfer).

The first person I met was a fellow transfer named Kristin. This girl is incredible. She's going into her junior year at Baylor and is still trying to decide on a major (not, mind you, because she's indecisive, but because she's interested and good at that many things). After spending most of the first day with her it was clear that we are very similiar people. It was so cool to be able to say something about yourself and have some one echo "Me too!" or visa-versa. Hopefully she'll be me and Emmy's roommate this fall in our awesome two bedroom apartment.
The next person I met was an absolute God-send. The very end of the first day Kristin had gone home and I was sitting by myself, walking by myself, basically all alone. Thankfully one kind soul noticed. His name is Luke and he was so friendly and nice that I couldn't help but feel that this was a person around which I could be myself. He included me in a game of Uno and introduced me to his older brother Jake and their mutual friend Jason. Wow! I don't think Luke will ever know how much it meant to me that he reached out. He was even kind enough to stay with me until my mom arrived late that night! What a gentleman.

So, needless to say, I have quite a few friendships to look forward to developing at Baylor. I'm so excited I can hardly conntain myself! SIC 'EM BEARS!!!
