so i'm in north bay. started school today. have a new laptop. have some new friends. it wasn't the big tragedy that i was looking forward to. rather it was easy. my friend scott is in my section - so we had a chance to hang out all day today (and probably tomoro and the next day and all this year). i'm waiting up until midnight to sign up for a class that i seriously hope i get into as it's a big step toward my ending up in kenya - which lets face it - is the ideal for this adventure girl. anyways - i'm out of here for now... more later - i hear my day tomoro is spent learning how to turn my new laptop on - and since i'm currently typing on it - i'm gonna go with i've got that covered.
