* This post, as well as the posts for days 9 and 10,
is being written as I sit in the car on the way to Chapel Hill.
Asheville, NC to Chapel Hill, NC
? miles (I forgot to take a picture of my speedometer
when we arrived in Chapel Hill…oops!)
Time: We took another detour, so it took longer than
normal. It should take about 4 hours to get from
Asheville to Chapel Hill.
Highest Temp: 87
Pictures Taken: 1
This morning at breakfast we met a couple whose
daughter is a 2nd year in the AuD program at UT Dallas. For those of
you who don’t know, I was also rejected from UT Dallas. In the last two days I
have met people who are associated with the two schools that rejected me haha.
No hard feelings. I am SO excited and blessed to be attending UNC! It was and
always will be my first choice school. I am looking forward to the graduate
school orientation tomorrow and can’t wait for my program orientation on
Monday.
The drive is quite boring again today. I’m the
entertainer and DJ and am not as stellar as yesterday because I’m busy writing
blog posts. No worries. Every pro has their off day. (My mom just told me I’m
my own best audience because I keep laughing at the sarcastic jokes I make. I
like to think I’m not the only one who appreciates it. If you like my writing,
go ahead and boost my ego by telling me. If you don’t like it, I don’t want to
hear it. Haha.)
After three days of calling my apartment complex to
see if I can get in early I finally succeeded! We are about 40 minutes away
from Chapel Hill and will move in as soon as I get there. I am so excited to
stop living in hotels! 11 days was enough for me.
(The rest of this post is being written now – three days
after arriving.)
We stopped at another outlet and I bought even more
clothes. Now I am definitely ready for school! I was able to move in to my
apartment late on Wednesday and have been running errands and unpacking ever
since. I finally finished everything this afternoon. There are a few more
things to take care of, but nothing big. In celebration, I went to the pool,
which was packed. I read by the pool, and it was glorious, except for the fact
that I felt like I was at a frat party. Most of the student that live here are
much younger than me. Oh well. It should provide some great entertainment haha.
Tomorrow I have a lot of things to accomplish from my “to-do” list before
attending a BBQ with everyone from my cohort. I’ve met most of them and am
excited to meet the ones I haven’t met and hang out with all of them! Six of
the girls went out for drinks on Thursday and had a great time! I haven’t
laughed that hard in a while. I lucked out with a great group! :o)
