Non-freewrite Update: My current status and state of being

This isn't a freewrite.  Rather, it's an update as to my current feelings and status.  (Freewrite is forthcoming.)

In short, all systems worked out, and I have begun my first semester as a University student.  I am at CSU Northridge pursuing a Bachelor's in Public Health Education, I live in a nice place a couple miles from campus, and so far things are good.

Wait.  Things are actually GREAT.  I love my living arrangements.  I live in a large home with a bunch of other people (the majority of whom are CSUN students), and it's a great environment to live in while I study.  I'm already a bit more sociable with people, and I'm enjoying sitting out in the common areas and watching TV or using my Netbook, rather than sitting in a room doing nothing.  Everyone here is awesome, we're all supportive of one another, and it's just a great space to relax and study in.  I can see myself sticking around here for a while.

As for University, lemme tell you something.  It felt AMAZING to set foot on campus yesterday.  I really felt like I'd found my niche, felt like I was right where I belonged.  When I was going to Cypress, I felt very 'ehhhh' about being there.  It just didn't feel like I was supposed to be there.  But I definitely feel like I have a place at CSUN, even if it is a huge University, and I can see myself doing some good here.  Go me.
