My first morning in San Jose. It's been a busy one. I got up and had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for breakfast since it was all I had besides a water filter.
Mo spent the night stuck to the inside of my sleeping bag. I think she might still be there. She's afraid to come out. It took her an hour to get brave enough to climb the stairs, now I don't think she's going to come down. I caught her peeping under the loft railing earlier, but beyond that I haven't seen hide nor hair of her.
Oh well, she'll get used to it. She loved the hardwood floor in our kitchen at home. It was the perfect place to pretend she was ice skating. She would run from the living room, jump onto the hard wood floor, and slide on her fuzzy little feet all the way to the other wall. I imagine after she figures out this place won't eat her, she'll be having a ball sliding all around the apartment. I hope she remembers there are stairs with no carpet.

After I wandered around outside and took some pictures of my empty apartment, my friends brought over the sofa they
promised to give me and a few other goodies.They decided on their way home that I needed a projector.. and some speakers.. and a plant. So they set me up. I have a set of speakers and a projector so I can play
dvd's on my laptop and shine them on the big white vacant wall by the stairway. It's going to be like a huge flat-screen TV.:)
Wasn't that sweet?
A few other random shots.
Ignore the messy bits.
They're still looking for proper homes.
Here are a few other random shots of my apartment, then I'm off to explore. I'm taking my camera, so watch out. I have no idea where I'm going today,
but I've decided my bus pass and my books are #1 priorities. So first I'm going to go to campus and get my student ID, then I'm going to take that to get my bus pass so they'll give me the nice student discount. 
Then I'm going to go back to campus with my schedule in my pocket so I can find where all my classes are before they start on Thursday. After I walk around campus and probably take a half zillion pictures, I'm going to go to the bookstore and pick up my books. I figure that should be my last stop around campus because after that, I'm going to want to walk straight home. Hopefully they're not too heavy.. or some poor little kid will loan me his wagon for a half hour.Stay tune, I'm sure I'll have lots more to post soon.
