is there ever a good ID photo?

so i got my school ID today. fun times. it's a bad picture. i wasn't really planning on getting it done today, but my new cohort buddies (shawn and courtney) and i decided to go after lunch. we met in town and grabbed some sandwiches and talked. apparently, the ucard place was hidden in one of the dining halls and nearly impossible to find so we all went together (shawn and courtney had been there before, although courtney hadn't gotten hers yet). after getting my horrible picture, we walked around campus and found where different places are.

it's nice to have met some people. we'll be spending a lot of time together. shawn and i are ta-ing for the same class and taking the same four courses and courtney also is in three of them. so i guess it's good that we got along today.

overall, it's been a really great day. i'm excited about my new friends and i think this is going to work out. i still wonder if i should be somewhere else, but this is where i am and i'm trying to not second guess this.
