Gloomy Day in Charlotte. Eccept its Payday in the Office!

It’s pretty gray outside today, but I kind of like it. I like when there is different weather everyday. So maybe I should start looking for places to live that have crazy weather. I had an awesome time with hank in san Luis and Santa Barbara. Hanks sister Amy drove all the way from San Diego to pick me up in Burbank then we drove to San Luis Obispo. He showed me around his campus I got to briefly meet his friends and one of his roommates (one of them was in class). But the one I did meet was pretty cool. Defiantly much different than hank but that makes things a bit more interesting. Right? His campus is huge! 20,000 students compared to my 2500. It’s crazy. His food is different from ours as well we have cafeteria style dining they have different restaurants on campus they have the choice of dining in. I was pretty jealous. After he showed us around Amy drove us to Santa Barbara (she had a long day, but she is the best)...
   We went to State and A for dinner (which is his Aunt Kacy restaurant). We stayed at Kacy's house with Hanks cousin's Kami & Whitney. They have a gorgeous home you can see the ocean! The next morning we woke up and Kacy brought the best bagels for us from a local bagel shop called "Jacks". Then she gave us some ideas of things to do for the rest of the day. So we got ready went to the organic farmers market just off
State Street
. Then went shopping! I was actually pretty good and only bought one thing and a few school supplies! We finished the day with Sate and A for dinner again and Kacy gave me a tour of the kitchen, it’s crazy how different they all look.
   Sunday (my last day with hank) we went to the butterfly beach and I actually got in the water. I hate swimming but I got in up to my chest they were Huge waves. Hank says they weren’t at all but i'm pretty sure the ocean doesn’t like me because it was trying to suck me out... or maybe it likes me a lot. Oh well all I know is water scares me to death. After the beach hank and I packed up and followed Carly and Jakes directions to there house and got to visit with them and Liam. Gosh he is a crack up. He likes to throw his toys cars (all billion of them) they have the best view ever. We stayed there for an hour or too just talking then headed back to get cleaned up to go to dinner at Hanks Uncle Tommy and Aunt Barb’s house. It was the first home cooked meal I have had in over a month and a half and it was AMAZING! Tommy made hank and I Italian Passion fruit sodas. Pretty good actually. Then got Ben and Jerry’s with Kacy and Kami and headed back for Kacy's I face booked for a few house while Hank studied for his Psychology midterm.
   The next morning hanks bus left for San Luis at 6 am. Kacy and I went and said goodbye and headed back to the house. My train didn’t leave for Burbank airport until 9:20. I said goodbye :( and Kacy waived the Train goodbye.
   It was an actually pretty cool riding a train. It was my first time and the train took us long the coast. Once I got off at Burbank I checked in security and the gate for my plane was the closest to security. Score! Long Day but I made it back to charlotte about 11pm. One of my roommates, Victoria picked me up form the airport and we headed for the dorms.
   I still really am not a fan of my dining room instructor. I feel like she has no idea what she is doing. She is just all over the place and cant focus, or even teaches for that matter. Well only a few more days of her.
  I work tomorrow from 10:15am-11pm... Long day

Love You All Lots!
Miss you more than ever.
