Enjoying your vacation?

I hope everyone is enjoying their vacation so far! It's definitely been relaxing, and I officially have my new desk--Thanks for Ikea! I will post some pictures to share my excitement!

I was hoping to post a paragraph that a Berkeley Student, Symeja, had typed up for me after I had asked her to tell me about her Berkeley experience so far. Unfortunately, blackboard is down at the moment and I can't get into my email to access her picture and paragraph, so that will have to be held off. I actually meet Symeja yesterday at the Garret Mountain campus. I sold her one of my books and also had to pay my bill, so it worked out perfectly. So we will hear from her a little later when I can access my email!!

Other than that, not too much has been going on. I received some of my books in the mail today for the upcoming quarter. When I was in the post office and received one of those yellow cards that there is a package waiting, the mail man handed it to me and I sighed and said, "Oh joy, my book is here!" He laughed since he knew I really just want to not worry about books! Ok, so it's not that bad, but these books are a little too expensive, but luckily I managed to shop around and save over $200, which was happy news to my ears!

Hopefully everyone has started to look into which books they will need. If you want to shop around for the best price, get the ISBN numbers for the books you need which makes the search ten times easier! Make sure you give yourself enough time to receive the book though. I know my online classes require the book right away, so I'm really hoping the next two days, all my books will come!

Ok, so time for some pictures! I have some pictures I took from my car of the Garret Mountain campus. I wanted to walk around, but I was pushed for time, so I snapped a few real quick. After those, I will post the picture of my desk! There are no pictures of the building process unfortunately, even though it was quite humorous! Enjoy!
