Fly Away

"And If I promise you that I'll be back someday,will you set me free so I can fly away?"

Today, I am in the middle of my first day of college. So far, I have had Physical Science, Music Theory, a choir audition (during the time I will normally have choir, or so I believe), and Interpersonal communications. In about 15 minutes, my final class on MWF starts, which is Old Testament.
Tomorrow I will have Pre-Uds which I think is just talking about observation hours for teaching, Lifetime Fitness, and Wind Ensemble. I am greatly enjoying my time here so far, and I am becoming more and more certain that I chose the right place.
I am looking forward to this upcoming weekend (Labor Day) very much. We already have a day off on Monday, and Jon has decided to come up and see me! We're still trying to figure out what we are doing on Friday night, but we will be spending the weekend in Brookfield with the family, and I'm very excited to do that!
Well, I'll post more on my classes, and the goings on here when more comes up, and when I know more about my classes.
Love, C

The Night Before Life Goes On

So, yesterday, I got all moved in, and enjoyed a lovely dinner with Mom, Grandma, Aunt Karen, and Uncle Jon at Chancery. My room (for right now) is actually pretty neat and organized. Megean has moved in, and Rachel will move in tomorrow. We have had two band rehearsals already, and they have gone really well. It's so nice to be in a good group! Right now, we're on break til dinner, and I'm contemplating what to do about my extra credit hour (drop organ, or something else). I've been enjoying my time getting know the band kids before everyone else gets here. At our lunch break myself and 6 other band students played a quick game of Apples to Apples... no one technically won because we had to leave in the middle of it to go to another rehearsal. Well, I'll post some time! Love, C

Hello

This is the "Christa at college" blog. I will still continue to post on Memos from Missouri, but this is solely about what's going on in my life. Each Blog title will be the title of a song that reflects what's going on in my life, or my mood, or whatever. Usually, part of the song will also be posted. One line in "Hello" by Sugarland is "In the same moment that one thing ends is the same time that one begins" As I leave my life in Missouri behind, I feel like this is a very fitting line to thing about. Well, it's time for lunch, so more will probably be posted later.
