Join some clubs, Brown Sheep! You'll find other like-minded people, and those will be your friends, not the random people in classes!

I was much like you when I went to college. I was introverted and not the partying type. I joined a Christian group and made lots of friends there and they brought me out of my shell too. I'd second the suggestion that you join a club. I bet there is a Christian group on campus (you may even find one that is religion specific, Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, etc.) I definitely enjoyed my time with the Christian group and made lots of friends. They had get togethers and all kinds of things they did and there was no drinking/drugs involved, just good clean fun!

They actually had a club expo today. I picked up some stuff for the biology, pre-vet, and sustainable gardening clubs.
There is a church on campus I have been going to. Unfortunately, none of their bible studies or other activities start for another couple weeks. They have an AWESOME music section very Lord of the Rings like.
I'm hoping Ill be able to do the beekeeping internship, but the fact Im a freshman may be an issue. I'll just have to convince them.

I went home again this weekend 
. My grandma let me drive her car down. My sissssssssster has not been taking very close note of the sheep. One of her ewes had a hole in her back. Do any of you have issues with magpies pecking fully grown healthy sheep? I'll go post that over in sheep in a minute...her back had a quarter sized wound from the &$(!& magpies. This ewe was just sheared a week or two ago so her wool was very short. We cleaned it up ,packed it with antibiotics, and covered it with no pick goop I have for my chickens. The goop helped when he magpies bothered the last ewe. Came back up yesterday. My moms twin was over from the coast and it was one of my uncles birthdays so we went and had dinner with them . Got up early to reserve a ticket for the first home football game of the year. And now I'm going to go eat the last of my granola!

Well college is going okey dokey. I have a math test tomorrow 
. It will not be pretty. I'm aiming for an A and hoping for a B . Last weekend my parents came up . I feel so bad for my roomies who aren't able to see their family every week. I've made friends with the other girls in my suite. We aren't very close and really have no common interests but it's nice to just have people to sit in the common room with. There are ten of us in the suite so some ones always around. Saturday I am going with a friend from home to watch her sister run in cross country meet. Next week is home coming so I will be going home.
The magpies
continue to harass the sheep. The ewe theyre bugging is a former show lamb who doesn't like to be caught and can leap our 4-5 ft fences if the mood strikes her. Considering, we treated it pretty well my dad and sister are calling it good and will be killing the magpies eventually. The hen lost her two chicks this weekend while my dad was up here. No clue as to what happened.
Betty White, my royal palm with the damaged beak, is having a hard time eating with the damage. She's turned into a pet so I have been talking to some bird organizations and a vet AND a dentist of all things about fixing her beak.
I'll be going home Friday for homecoming!

I'm going home tomorrow!!! My not so little sister will also be have one of her wisdom teeth removed. They won't film her afterwards for me, despite my begging.
Now for the exciting Ag news! We may be getting a new bull! He's three an apparently very tame. In yaks it pretty common to have tame bulls so that actually is a good thing here. Accourding to the vet who works on them the lady who owns him now feeds him candy and he comes to have his head scratched. If we get him I've requested we call him Herman. Our last bull was Harry and our alpha ram is Henry. So I think Herman is a fitting continuance.
Not so exciting news. I was part of the 60% of the lass that failed the test. Upside he is allowing retakes since 60% failed!...another upside my math savvy little sister will be tutoring me....Ild be ashamed of that but the girl is GREAT when it comes to math.
