The first week was boring. I am renting a house off campus. I was sitting around a lot. My roommate Kevin has been working. My job starts next week. I am a lab monitor on campus. My classes this semester seem alright.

I told dad my master plan, and that is to work out every day, and return next year and play football at CMU. I also have an encrypted message to the Metro...

Dear Metro Readers:
.
Univer$ity life i$ $o wonderful! Cla$$e$ this $e$$ion are intere$ting, my cla$$mate$ are the be$t! But after $pending all my ca$h on book$, I am in a little need for $ome $pending money for grocerie$ and $uch. But don't want to $end the wrong $ignal$ though.

The first week was exciting. I got to meet my new roommates... Yes, I said roommates! We were supposed to be 2 in a room, but we got 3. It is temporary, as one will get reassigned. Their names are Brad and Ryan. They both seem pretty cool. I had a tough time sleeping to begin with, but I am getting used to no air, and no privacy.

The campus at MSU is huge. In my first week of school, I found that there is quite a bit of walking, but all my classes seem good. Math will probably be my toughest subject (Calculus)

The food on campus is good, and they have a wide selection from pizza, burgers, and grinders to lasagna and salads.

More next month...
