I've only been in Presque Isle for a little over a week, and it's super stressful. It's not that it's a lot of work, but being an adult.
I like to define my position in life right now as an adult in progress. Since I was adopted, I've been taken care of. It's been weird being on campus without any of my family. I really miss them and everything.
It's safe to say that I've been adjusting to this life: showering in the same room as other girls, sharing a room again, being in control of getting my own food and cutting up my own meat, and doing my own work. I've been keeping in contact with my family, but it's still been very different. I know that I've only been here for a little over a week, but right now I don't think that I'll be coming back for another semester.
I might change my mind. Id talking to my mom and she made it clear that it's okay if I change my mind and end up wanting to stay up here, but right now I don't feel like I'm going to want to.
It was awesome seeing my mom and sister today. We went out to lunch at Ruby Tuesday. We talked a lot and just hung out. I think that's one of the biggest things I miss, having conversations in person with my family.
I think that my favorite part of the day was when my mom told me that I need to eat more because I'm withering away. I told her that it's the food here. I eat a lot less food and more healthy stuff. She brought me a giant thing of man n cheese and then bought me for boxes of granola bars!
Overall, I had a wonderful day with my mom and sister! Just saying! :)
