An Update on SIUC


Hi everyone. I am finally able to post things thanks to Daniel. I thought I should give you all an update on the college life! It's a bit of a struggle being 6 hours away from home. Thankfully I have 3 amazing friends that are making the transition much easier. I'm studying biology (which is already keeping me very busy), but I'm working hard! Fortunately I have strong Thompson genes and I am still very independent and have yet to conform to the crazies that I go to school with. I attempted to join a sorority and quickly learned three days later that I am way too much of my own person to conform to that. So I quit. I'm still keeping up with my art...(slowly but surely), and hope that I might finish one of my two paintings in the next four years or so. Ha!

I can't wait to see all of you at Thanksgiving! Miss you, Thompson clan.

Sincerely your youngest,

Em

Haha Daniel heres one.. I got woken up at 5 this morning for a fire drill!! I had to walk down 16 flights of stairs and then back up. It was great.

Em, that's a small price to pay for safety.

Four nice looking young ladies but one is my favorite. I am glad you are choosing to use your time wisely.

I love you,
