In no particular order:
1. She is constantly eating and drinks probably 5 cans of diet pops a day
2. She plays loud music on her laptop and sings a lot to songs over and over again really loudly
3. She is trying to learn how to play the guitar but only knows one song, so I have heard her sing and play "Hey There Delilah" at least 50 times in the first 3 days she had the guitar
4. She constantly leaves dirty dishes in the sink that aren't even her dishes to use
5. She has a turtle and keep live worms in a container in the top drawer of her dresser to feed him with... "oh I think a couple got out" she even said
6. The light in the turtle's tank is super bright and I always have to turn it off for her
7. She leaves the window open when it rains and the rain gets in the house
8. She leaves piles of clothes all over the floor so I can't even open/close the window or turn off the light in the turtle's cage
9. She leaves lights, fans, and TVs on all day and all night even if no one is using any of it
10. She and another roommate ate over 1/2 of the 24 pack of Ramen noodles Bryan bought me
11. She uses my space when I'm gone - I came home unexpectedly one time and she had stacked dirty dishes on top of my laptop
12. Her annoying high school sister is always over here and walks into the room without knocking when the door is closed and ate my prepared strawberries that I had just washed for a chocolate fondue and walks into the house like she lieves here.
13. Once a week, one of her parents picks her up to go grocery shopping and buy her tons of new clothes or other things
14. She sleeptalks... full fledged sentences and laughing out loud
15. Her alarm goes off super super loud before mine does but her classes are later than mine and she sleeps through them and skips them anyways
16. She always leaves out her DDR mat in the middle of the floor and the DVD player unplugged because she has to plug in her game system
17. She types like a maniac and it's like she's super angry at the computer so she has to punch each key as hard and as loud as possible
18. She makes lists on the white board of things she thinks we "need" as if someone will buy them for her and cross them off the list
19. She just leaves big messes everywhere of used dishes, partly eat food, crumbs, books, pens, her laptop
20. When she is sprawled out on the couch and table with all of her stuff, no one else can use the living room
21. She takes up all of our refrigerator and cabinet space, and she knows this and cracks jokes about it
22. She is just socially awkward
23. She leaves piles of nasty, dirty dishes in our tiny sink so that none of us can use the sink
24. She sprawls out over my space (bed and desk) when she thinks I'm not coming home for awhile... I caught her stacking dirty dishes on top of my laptop the other day
25. She has childish opinions about everything and feels the need to constantly tell me what she thinks about everything, all the time, even if I'm studying or clearly not interested in talking to her

Finally getting in the swing of things :)
"The first few weeks of school have been a little more difficult than I thought they would be," is what I've been telling everyone who asks how this transition is going for me. But the truth is that this past month has been extremely difficult... harder than my most dramatic days at Ricardo (I know it's hard to believe!) I'm pretty sure I called Bryan crying at the end of every day for at least two weeks straight, and I've can't remember ever feeling so all-around defeated in a long time! A few positive changes happened this past weekend that have lightened up my schedule and a few worries I have going on, so I think this week has been pretty good so far.
On a positive note, I started thinking these last couple days about how this transition has affected my relationship with Bryan. Taking into account the weird/freaked-out phase we went through right before England, the time that I was in England, the few days I was back, and then being away this past month, it's not only brought a load of new challenges to my life but to our relationship too. But I am incredibly amazed at how much I think our relationship has also transformed throughout these experiences so far, he's been the most incredibly supportive boyfriend I could ever image, and I am in love with him more than I can ever explain! I am the luckiest girl on earth!
Tonight is the first night I've turned my phone off in a long time. Not because it keeps ringing, but because I'm afraid it won't for the rest of the night.
The Homestead 4 bedroom condo - where I will be celebrating my birthday with the man of my dreams for my birthday (at no cost!) 
Family - the guy who has been like a father figure to me (here he is with his family)! 
Jess - my new best girlfriend (eating her beloved Snackers at Olga's... not sure why she's squinting so much, hehehe)
