Well, I haven't posted since the first day that people started moving in to this building. That actually makes perfect sense now that I think about it. Since people started flowing in, I have had precious little time for blogging or photography. Fortunately, now I've settled into classes and gotten into a little more of a rhythm. It wasn't easy at first... After training and move-in ended, classes immediately started. I've had some mischief on my floor these first couple weeks, and it was getting to me, so last weekend I ran home quick to relax before I had a nervous breakdown and killed someone. Family time REALLY helped, and my second week of classes was considerably less stressful. I didn't get to see my brother (it's harder to cross paths now that we're both in college), but I got to see my puppy and the rest of my family, so that was nice. It's Labor Day Weekend, so my brother is actually home right now. We'll be home at the same time eventually!
Anyway, to explain the picture, this is the sunset from tonight. Right as the sun was going down, a nasty little red spot was heading towards Lincoln on radar from the west/southwest. Shortly after this was taken, it absolutely POURED. The wind blew, the rain was intense, and there was a ridiculous amount of lightning. We were never in a warning, but it was enough to disrupt a lot of people's Friday night plans temporarily. As for me, my Friday night plans have included making a Jeopardy game for a hall activity, painting my nails red with white polka dots (I'll explain why shortly), and watching the U.S. Open on television. Everything is very Husker-y tonight: my nails, this tennis match, and the fact that tomorrow is gameday. Roddick (from Nebraska) is playing Sock (an 18-year-old also from Nebraska). Roddick just won, but Sock gave him a fight.
Well, that's really all! I'm going to finish my nails and then probably go to bed. I'm excited to go to the game tomorrow, but I'm not excited about the extremely strong chance of rain. Yikes. Hopefully we don't get rained out!
