Oh, the places you'll go!

Hello, PORTLAND! I still can't believe I'm here right now, and I'm not exactly sure when it's going to hit me. Probably half way through the summer I'll realize it like BAM. :p

Anyway, despite the current dreary weather, it is absolutely GORGEOUS out here! If you've never been to Portland, write it down on your bucket list of places to go before you die. As soon as we drove out of the airport, all I saw was hills and mountains of greenery. If that's not something a Spartan could easily fall in love with, I don't know what is.. 

My roommate and I drove to our apartment and talked with the woman we're leasing it from. She gave us a tour of the complex and told us all of the fun places to go around town. The apartment is a really cute two-story townhouse with fully equipped kitchen and furnished rooms! She is one of the nicest women I've ever met, and I can't thank her enough for opening her home to us for this summer! :]

The only downside of my first day so far is that the internet is still not hooked up in the apartment. So, currently, I'm people-watching at the local Starbucks to use them for their Wi-Fi (shh, don't tell anyone!) :p


Here's my plan for today though: grocery shop, map out running routes around the city, write a letter to my sorority big sister, and cruise around town! :D
