All Moved In?
As a new member of the Hawkeye Marching Band (HMB), I was able to surpass my assigned move-in date and move in on Monday August 15. I was stoked to finally get to live in my new room at Slater Hall.
Moving in was a breeze! I came with a truck full of gear and managed to get it all up there in 3 cart loads. From there it was still smooth sailing. I claimed my bed and closet, and started unpacking! Nearly every 10 minutes, my RA or others volunteers stopped by to make sure everything was going ok. I remember when my sister moved into her college dorm, her RA introduced herself and we never heard from her again. From the very first moment she had to totally fend for herself!
I loved that whatever question or concern I had could be answered within minutes. It helped me transition so much faster. It’s my second day here, and although I haven’t spent much time in my dorm, it already feels like home. Even with a missing roommate! My “roomie” Megan doesn’t move in until Thursday August 18. So I have a couple days alone, but I still feel comfortable. Because my RA and volunteers stopped by frequently I know exactly where things I need are, and where to go to get my questions answered.
Technically I may not be “all moved in” but I’m still a happy camper. I still have some things to put away and organize, but I know in the weeks to come it will be a smooth process! Now here’s a picture of my progress:
It may not be anything spectacular, but its my new home, and I can’t wait to be all moved in!
Nice Blogging little sis! I’m proud to have a Hawkeye in our fam! Blog away! Can’t wait to see the Iowa Marching Band in action!
Looking good! Congrats on the blog too. Have a great year.
