Well it is the weekend, which in university terms means no classes. I have come to realize that most people that go to the University of Akron choose it because they live near by. That means that they all go home on the weekends. It is really weird to walk around campus and only pass a few people when during the week there are roughly 24,000 students bopping around.
Since I am not one of the fortunate ones that gets to return home every weekend, I have to find something to occupy my time with here. There is of course some homework and reading that I could do to prepare for classes next week, but I didn't want to do that the whole weekend. I decided that to kill some time I would head out into the big city and see what I could find. So I left campus and headed for the really big buildings, but when I got there I found a whole lot of nothing going on. There were some bars and hole in the wall restaurants, but not much more than that. Oh, and there was a Farmer's Market. What could be more exciting than a Famer's Market? Ha.
As I was walking around I saw a car pass that looked like Eddy. It made me wish that I had a car now. If I had a car maybe I could at least find a Wal-Mart or some other recognizable business, but alas I have no car, and no Wal-Mart. What is a girl to do?
I did work out today after my hike around Akron, but I've pretty much exausted all of my options. I will probably have to resort to doing homework now. I guess big city life isn't really all it's made out to be.

You'll find stuff to do. You'll make lots of friends and then you can car pool and do some other interesting activities around campus and in the city! yeah.... facing the music/"work" of college life isn't always pretty, but God's there to perk you up! Things'll get better!! ;-)you'll see.
I'm sorry you're having a hard time. I don't want to sound cliche, but give it some time. You'll meet people... people with cars and then you can go places with them.
Love you!!! and miss you, too.
We missed you this weekend! Hang in there things will improve. It takes a while to get aclimated but don't stop meeting people and trying to get out there. You will meet some interesting and maybe some really good friends that way.
