Eat 'em Up Cats!

Dear Nicole,

Congratulations and welcome to Texas State University! I am pleased to inform you that you have been admitted, and to invite you to join our campus community for the spring 2013 semester. In evaluating applications, my staff and I sought to identify students whose academic achievements, diverse talents and leadership abilities would complement the exceptional Texas State student body. We believe that your unique contributions will make Texas State an even better place to live and learn.

Whooohooo! I got accepted to Texas State University!
I am now officially a TX State Bobcat.
I found out late last night and have been jumping for joy ever since. :)
I was so relieved and excited that I stayed up until 2 am and woke up at 8 am this morning, so needless to say, after Chemistry class and an exam afterward - I am dead tired.
But still happy!

This, my friends, is where I will be spending my days at next semester:

Isn't it gorgeous?
Yeah, I think so too.
I'm beyond excited!
I cannot freakin' wait to be hanging out on this beautiful campus in the Texas Hill country.
Although... I must admit I'm not too excited about the 35 minute drive there and back. I live in south Austin, and there's no way in heck I'm moving to San Marcos, so - commute I must.
But that's okay though, I like driving.
That just means I get to jam out everyday before class and get amped to get my learn on!

I'm thrilled at the prospect of learning more, meeting lots of new people, and having tons of fun in the process. ACC (Austin Community College) is where I've been going for the last 2 years because, let's face it - community college is waaaaaay, waaaaaay more cost effective and I don't want to be saddled with extreme debt when I graduate. Plus, at some point I'll be going to the University of Texas too (hopefully) so my loan debt will start really adding up soon!
Anyway, so while at ACC, I've met people, but no one I've become really good friends with.
Now that I'll be going to Tx State, I'll be spending the majority of my day there during the week and I figure I'm bound to meet a boatload of people.
Oh and come Fall 2013, I'll be joining a sorority.

Many adventures await and I couldn't be more thrilled.

Happy Tuesday, friends.
