To Orlando!

Well, I'm now in Orlando. The move went fairly smooth, with nothing bad happening. Got almost everything up here that I need (I still need to bring one or two things when I go back home.) I'll be heading back on home Thursday night though, since I'm still working for my parents on the weekends (once school is in session, I'll be traveling home Friday nights and returning Sunday evenings.)

My room mate is pretty cool... at least, my room mate is a fairly laid back person. So far, all they've really done is watched TV. I'm not too big of a TV fan myself though, so I haven't been spending too much time with them.

On one hand I'm kind of happy that my room mate is the indifferent type, because that means I don't have to worry about too many people coming in and out of our room at all hours of the day. Neither of us has had any one over in the dorm room yet, though my sisters are stopping by tonight. Also, since they're pretty indifferent, I don't need to worry too much about my habits offending them, and that's always a good thing, espically since this is the first time I've shared living space with another person (I've always had my own room back home.)

On the other hand though, my room mate and I don't have a lot in common, which is probably a bad thing. They're not into gaming, or anime, or some of the other geeky, nerdy stuff I've found enjoyable. In fact, their PC is worse than mine, it's a small machine still running Windows 98. So my room mate isn't much of a Technophile. On the plus side though, my room mate does seem honest, so I can't fault that.

I've also been kind of homesick since I've arrived here, and today is only the second day I've been up here (I moved in on Tuesday). I kind of miss the familiar surroundings of home, and although I've written on numerous occasions, I kind of miss my family (ya, I know, I complain about them a lot.) I also miss my friends. I've already called a few of them up multiple times today, since I know they all had today off. I don't want to use up what little cell phone minutes I have though, so I'm waiting till 8 to call them again.

I also miss my boyfriend... =(. I didn't get to see him last week, so it's been like, 3 or 4 weeks since I last saw him, and he's having computer problems at the moment =(. Sometimes I think he isn't as into me as I am into him, but he does email me from a friend's computer every one or two days, so that kind of makes up for it. Unless it's all a ruse, but he hasn't been on some of our mutual sites for a little over a week, so that means either his computer is broken, or he's avoiding the sites I know he visits. I'm hoping it's the former...

I had to do some repair work on my computer before I could get internet access on it. My computer's hard drive crashed about one or two months ago, and I had to replace it. When I replaced it, rather than assigning the drive to C: like most computers do, for some reason it assigned it to I: . Now, that's not bad in itself, but I had to download the ethernet drivers for my PC yesterday using a public machine. I go to install them, and I get a fatal error. Apparently, the default HP ethernet drivers only install to C:. So ya, I had to pick up a new ethernet card to get internet working again. Before this, I always used a USB wireless adapter... no such luck here I guess.

Anyway, I need to log... so ~Night!
