Day 2: Follow Up: Very Tired

So, today was VERY tiring. It was a very long day! That community service project we did this morning felt like we did it like yesterday instead of JUST this morning! It's crazy! I'm having a lot of fun so far. I've met a lot of cool and funny people.

The only bad part about today was that I passed out in the staircase after dinner. Sammi, a girl from my O-group (LA 100 class), found me and helped me out. She is also hypoglycemia so I felt a lot better knowing she's going through that as well. I knew what was going on and I had my mom on the phone the whole way through, so my mom helped me so much getting me to calm down because I was really scared since I'm in a whole new surrounding. I also had an asthma attack in the process of that, but I'm ok now. I had to miss 2 events, so I'm not happy about that, but I did get in a 2 hour nap, so that felt good. They just have us doing so much and even with me eating 3 meals and then snacks in between to regulate my blood sugar, it's just so overwheling and tiring. We walk A LOT and when I MEAN a lot, I really mean just that! lol....but umm...other than that I'm having fun. I really miss home and it's going to take a few weeks to get used to. I never knew how much I would miss Dakota! He's my best friend and always will be no matter how much he gets on my nerves. He's just a really big part in my life and I miss him a lot. I talked to him today and he told me how much he missed me and I could hardly understand him because he started crying, but I reassured him that I would see him soon and that when I got home, we'll play soccer and other games so he's excited about that.

My mom and grandma are coming tomorrow morning. I technically have free time until 1ish because I'm not going to the church service (I know shame shame on me, but I just feel more comfortable going to my own church for a few weeks). I'm really excited to see my mom and grandma even though I just saw them yesterday, but it definitely seems like a long time here since we have very long days. It's only Day 2 of orientation, have 2 more to go :)

But anyway, I'm about to go head over to Jackie's room to hang out with her since Paige and Jessica went out to party lol. So I love everyone SO much and I miss all of you tons!
