The First Full Day

On Sunday we did amazing things in the morning. First I woke up and went to Rhodes Hall to visit two friends. After we met up we went to the Student Commons to inquire about a club. Actually they did that while I sat and watched. It was some club they wanted to go to but they couldnt because it was a 21 and older club. But after that we walked over to the Campus bookstore to look at things to put our IDs on. This proved to be very vital because it would enable us to go into and out of the dorms without having to yank it out of our bags oor search for it. From their we journeyed over to an Eastern Buffet place on the outskirts of campus to eat. I was like alright. It was brand new but it barely had people inside. I could describe the savory chinese dishes but you already know how they look so that would be a waste. I also ate sushi for the first time, strangely it tastes like the beach, literally. Then from there we walked and went back to the room to sit down and rest. Then we waited until a bit later to go to the next activity which was casion night. Casino Night was an activity that they set up for us to gain a valuable sticker (if we collect ten we could win amazing prizes) and play a few games. While their I met a few people from our area. I saw one guy at a previous engagement a while back and yet another one from Scholastic Bowl. We played for several hours then they took our winnings in tokens and exachanged them for raffle tickets. These tickets were then used for the raffle to win amazing prizes (as if they were a bag of marbles so we dont lose out marbles, tickets to a concert, and free games at BReak Point, the campus gameroom), but none of us won. My friends managed to buy the concert tickets from a winner because she didnt want to go; individually they payed twenty dollars each. I also saw the rest of the Norcom people last night as well. Well after that we rented two movies, Scary Movie 4 (which was funny), and another movie that the name leaves my mind. Well anyway after that event we wlaked for several milews trying to get something to eat, but everything was closed, so we ordered pizza. We went to the dorm to it and watch movies. So all in all the day was great and it was the longest time I had spent seeing my roomate in two days (about 2 hours).

It wasnt bad but if you know how the beach smells, it is like having that smell in your throat.

I had sushi one time in Florida, and I hated it. I had about 4 different kinds. And all of them were not pleasing.
