Let's just say it has been an uphill battle since I got here in Miami. After going on zero sleep new years eve to new years, taking a flight to Miami, driving all around Miami to find a hotel under $150 dollars for a night because of the high season, I finally found a place to lay my head.

After doing some e-mails I went to bed, only to get woken up by a terrible pain in my stomach, some sickness I have been plagued by since last new years. I ended up staying up and vomiting all that night until about 5:30; I had to wake up at 7. Three days-one and a half hours of sleep and I'm on my way to orientation, yuck.

At orientation they tell me most of the classes are already full, I am not considered a resident so my tuition will be three times as much, my major is at another campus, and the only chase bank, my bank, is an hour away=no money! I like obstacles though, it makes things very exciting.

Long story short, I found my way to get in-state tuition, get into classes, get some much needed sleep and meds, and made the trip to the only chase bank. I have met some pretty cool people and my dorm is very empty, it makes it very spiritual for me.

I am very content because I am listening to my secret crush's new cd that my sister got me!

Hey bro,

That was a rough way to begin your time in Miami, but there is always a wilderness that you have to go through to get to the Promised Land. I wish we didn't have to go through Good Friday to get to Easter Sunday, but the Bible shows us that we have to go through Good Friday to get to Easter. (a little Martin Luther King Jr.)

It was good to talk last night. talk to you soon.
