Recap of the last two weeks….

Lets just say they have been very eventful…..first of all I have been sick for the past month and a half, so one day I decided to make tea for myself and I also thought I would taste better with honey so as I was being a chef on my desk…right next to my labtop….lets just say it didn’t turn out so well…..and I haven’t been able to drink tea since then. Luckily, it was fixed…and I finally have it back.

On to something different so we were having room inspections this week right before thanksgiving break. It’s their way of making sure that people clean their rooms before going home. If you have friends come see you at school….they tend to think that the dorms look more like a hotel then dorms. They are much better than typical dorms. Hands down. But they also do stuff such as the above that make you think that its more of living at home since they do cleaning inspections in your room, overall its more like highschool here. Since this is a smaller school, your professors know you by name which can be both good and bad but I remember when I was in high school they would say that if you didn’t turn something in or if you didn’t want to go to class the professor wouldn’t care but they do here. They let you turn stuff in if you don’t and if you miss class three times you get dropped from class. But then again why would you miss class more than once in a semester and expect it to be considered as excused. ahhaha
