First Days

So, Maggie has been a resident of the Aloha state for almost 2 weeks now - she is still adjusting, but likes it so far!
Everyone keeps asking her "How is Paradise?"
Unfortunately, actually living in paradise still requires her to do school work, laundry, wash dishes etc - so while it is beautiful there - the reality is that she has an almost overwhelming amount of work to handle every day. She is also pretty sure that riding a bike everywhere might actually be the death of her! 
However, she HAS managed to meet several new friends and is taking full advantage of her free time!
Here are a few pics I have received in the last two weeks ---  

This was sent the day after I left her - notice she is NOT riding her bike?
 She and a housemate HITCHHIKED to the beach. YEP - I said hitchhiked!
She has since done it again and I am mortified!

Some new friends after a Chalk dance on campus! When she sent the photo at first, I didn't realize why she looked so pale - then she said Chalk and it made more sense!

No school on MLK day meant a hike up Kailua. They made it up to the bunkers.


Maggie is in purple tank - the rest of the people are housemates and new friends who also attend BYUH
