So, as I mentioned in my last post I decided to not have Internet at my apartment.  I’m still going through withdrawals and realizing how much my life relies on Google.  I had to turn on the RADIO the other day just to check the weather (making sure there weren’t any tornadoes in the area that I needed to worry about) — It’s been an experience for sure.

But I’m not really missing anything.  For one, I am “connected” while I’m at work, so I can download podcasts and get my Internet fix that way.  The biggest difference is not having the constant, immediate access to information that I’m used to which I’m getting used to and realizing that I DON’T need this level of access — it’s okay to wait until the next day.

So that’s that — today was another freshman orientation so my brain is a little fried from that.  This is my favorite part about my job, even though it leaves me exhausted.  I think I’ll go home and *gasp* read a book and probably go for a run

Here’s a quote I used in my academic workshop today:

“You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm” — Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

That pretty much sums up my college experience
