How exciting this is Your desk already looks so organized and neat. I am happy to hear that your roomie is a country fan - otherwise she would have been miserable heehee That homesickness will come and go for awhile - very normal of course! Yes, let us know about your classes too will you? Two of my kids went to Ohio State. I stayed at a dorm at Kent State once for a retreat weekend - very nice!! The campus is really pretty. Have fun.
