So....I am back at uni!!! woohoo!!!!!!
All my friends are here, the weather was very hot for a while, there is fun to be had everywhere and I have met tons of amazing new friends!
Well, I will just tell you about a few things I have been up to recently.
Monday- first dance of the semester....it was held at the upper fields...it was older music as there is always a Top 40 dance a few days later. Anyway....it was a lot of fun!! I have a good few bruises :-D
Wednesday- the top 40 dance. So this is one of the biggest dances of the semester. This was also held outside on the upper fields....there's tons of free ice cream and prizes to be won....I didn't win anything though :-( I went there with some of my roommates and then later on I met up with different friends at the dance (Alyssa, Rachael, Brett, Kyle, Nick, Chris, Seth and Seth) and then LC (Laura Christian) and a friends of ours called Kelly came and joined us for a bit. Well, this dance was crazier than the other one and the music was good! Americans seem to like to mosh, crowd surf and basically just get crushed to any type of music....I was wearing flip flops, so my feet got intensely trampled on....but did it stop me?? Of course not. Alyssa and Chris also had crazy injuries from bridge jumping the day before...but did they let that stop them?? don't be silly! It really was such a good night!! Our group was just too fun....we just dance and dance and go crazy :-) It's the way we roll.
Oh, a few weeks ago a group of us went bridge jumping...it is such a laugh. We first went to this place called 'Monkey Bridge' It is quite a tall bridge and after some of the guys showing off and after everyone else plucked up the courage to jump we moved on to see a waterfall and then finally to 'Twin Bridges'. These bridges were a about 20 feet from the water, so it was a lot easier jumping off these! Twin Bridges are in such a beautiful setting...it was warm, the sun was low and we were going crazy on the bridges! Some of the guys were daring enough to do multiple flips or funky dives....I just jumped! It was a really good night...perfectly ended with dinner at good old Craigo's :-D yummy pizza! We then took another bridge jumping trip the following week!
So basically I have had a lot of fun this with a lot of friends and it's not even the weekend!!

Vanessa Admits: "I was wrong about Delta"
Haha. It is true, I was wrong about Delta. Or perhaps I have come to more of an understanding of the way in which Delta works. Their domestic flights, from experience, are crap. Although their long haul flights are rather pleasant indeed. Ten minutes after boarding the airplane, I was presented with earphones and a menu. They are extremely good when it comes down to providing food. The airplane was also only a 737 I believe, or something smaller than a 747 anyway. This was advantageous (is this a word) to myself as it meant there were only two seats by the windows...therefore I didn't have to clamber all over people to get out. I was also very happy to learn that the personal TV's in front of us were truly amazing. You could pick whatever you wanted to watch, whenever. There were about 20 films, a bunch of tv shows and games etc. Oh, and they were touch screen. I definitely did not have this good a flight 3 months prior to this with United. Plus....yes there is more...the seats themselves were rather roomy and they were leather! I think I managed to sleep for about 3 1/2 hours which was nice.
I then had a 5 hour wait in Atlanta airport....it actually went quite quickly but all the same..it was boring. I was then on my way to SLC, this was the point at which I realised the truth behind Delta.
I now have to go to my Micro Application class, I will come back soon with a 'one week into the semester' update!
