So much more than what I thought

I have been living at Westminster for almost a week now and things are very interesting. Some things are better than others. Orientation week was fun and I meet lots of new people and about 5 of them I think are my new group of friends that I will be spending a lot of time with at Westminster. My classes so far are good and I think I will really like all my professors and learn a lot from them and a lot from my other peers in my classes.
 Some not so good things are where I am living. My roommate is a nice girl and I know she tried super hard to get here but she does things that I would never in a million years do. Like get high and drink a ton and so forth. I want to change roommates but you have to go through this whole process to do it  and my roommate would probably get super mad at me. I also wish I was in a different dorm building. I have friends in Hogel and it is such a better dorm with more friendly people. I guess I will just have to see how things play out from here. Maybe I will change at the semester. 
One cool thing I did today was in my English class we wrote poem type of things here is mine although I didn't quite finish: 
I am from apple trees from swing sets and sandboxes. 
I am from the small town of a bigger city. 
I am from the bunk beds that my sister and I slept in, where we would listen to books on tape and talk till we fell asleep. 
I am from a house that is on an wide open park with many different trails. 
I am from adventures and hikes up and down the mountains, with games and skiing and many stories that I can still remember. 
I 'm from school yards and making long lasting friendships. From hard work and making new connections. 

Thats what I have so far and I just wrote it as things came to mind. 
Sorry for the rant, I just had to get a lot of that off my chest. 
Gotta keep pushing through.

Tangerine Sky

I looked out the window and what did I see... a sky the color of a tangerine! So of course I had to take pictures, here are some that captivate the craziness that was the sky a couple evenings ago.

And then a few minutes later it looked like a normal sunset. It was quite the beautiful show that nature put on for everyone to see! :)
