I took my study break on the balcony between Batts and Mezes today. It was really nice up there- very quiet with a great view of the South Mall. And the weather was perfect, so there was a nice breeze.
I feel like people are always talking about what a big place UT is, and how you are just one person among over 50,000, but that hasn't been my experience so far. I hardly go anywhere without seeing someone I know. And, it isn't just people from my FIG; I see people I went to high school with (a small high school), people I met at orientation, people that live on my hall, and lots of other people that I know. In fact, there is a girl that graduated from Burnet a year before me in Astronomical Observations, a random class with less than 20 people! Anyway, when I was leaving Mezes today, a guy opened the door for me. When I went to say thank you, I noticed that it was a guy that I went to high school with...crazy! Because we were both on our way to class, we only had a couple minutes to catch up, but it was good to see him.
It's my weekend to go home, so I'm at Hallie's tonight! I always look forward to seeing Hallie, Isidro and Isla, and was very happy that Isla was still awake when I got home. She is so adorable! I also look forward to the home-cooked meals at Hallie's, and tonight Isidro made lasagna. I don't usually like lasagna because of the melted cheese (I hate stringy, melted cheese), but this lasagna was really good!
I hope y'all enjoy your weekend. I don't think I'm going to be going to the pumpkin patch, but I think it's still going to be a good weekend :)
