So today seemed sooooo long!!! We are still finishing up new student orientation stuff.. so we were up at 7 and then in the morning we had to sit in on 30 minutes of listening to people talk/welcome us to BYU-H. Then we had to go to "one stop student services" where we got an introduction into campus life and such and then since mary and i are considered "international students" we had to fill out some more documentation stuff. After that was done we ate some lunch with tiff... then shogo came and ate with us too! He wrote his english proficiency test today.. poor boy! But yep. Then I got 2 of my books. My text books are actually pretty cheap. My religion one is only 5$, my english one is only 30$, my psyc one is 70$, and my bio one is 100$. And i don't even need one for math. so that's sweet i guess. We also got our student ID cards today! I actually like my picture, I think it turned out decently. Well decent enough for an ID card. haha. Then! omg we had to sit in on this "Official Welcome" for like 2 and a half hours... so boring. lol. I was glad to get out of there. It was all about the honor code and what not then just like academic stuff and how to work things online. Oh well it was good to go to I suppose. Everytime we start a class though or a session its so funny because the speaker will go... "Aloha BYU-H students!" Then all the students yell back.... "ALOHA!!!!" Hahaha its awesome. But yeah! So then we went to go get cell phones at this tiny little cell phone place in Laie. Honestly that store was smaller than my dorm. It was tiny. And we had to wait in line for sooooooo long. like 2+ hours. We got there at like 4:30 we didn't get out til like 8. But there's only 1 person working there right and they service like the whole town. So yeah. BUT! I signed up with the company mobi... it's strictly for the Hawaiian islands only.. but its perfect for what I need. It's not a contract or anything so I just pre-pay every month 50$ and then I can text unlimited to Canada and the US and then I have unlimited calling to anywhere in the US. So it's super sweet and I'm stoked about it. My phone is just a little cheap motorolla but its all i need. So i am so stoked to finally have a phone again! AND THEN! oh my!! They have such amazing shaved ice here!! like the stuf back home does NOT even compare. I ordered a small.. but a small was freaking the size of my head. It was huge. I got strawberry coloada, pine apple, and pina coloda flavors. Then they put icecream at the bottom of it so then when you get to the bottom its like icecream mixed with melted shaved ice and you mix it all together and its like frothy and delicious. It was so good. Mary got what was called a "halo" so they topped hers with condensed milk and whipped cream. It's so amazing. That is what I ate for supper. And I want one everyday. But that would definitley help contribute to this stupid "freshman 15." Anyway. Today was very busy. And a lot of waiting in lines and stuff. So much standing and waiting. It was tiring. But it's stuff that needs to get done. So it's just more things off the checklist! Tomorrow should be a pretty full day as well... I'll be sure to update. :)
Goodnight!
