After lunch, I decided to try and go find the Internet room that I had heard about. Little did I know, but right around the corner from my room was an Internet hook-up where I could just plug in my laptop. There’s nothing like being 1200 miles from home and instant messaging your homies to tell them how your Woodward vacation is. Dinner comes soon when you’re occupied, so after a decent salad, I met up with Florida native, Dave Malinsky, and skated the School.
