My first day at Kenyon was kind of exhausting.  The plane ride was pretty short but the early timing was what really wore me out.  Once we reached Columbus, Ohio we took a shuttle bus for a bit more than an hour to get to Kenyon College.  The car ride was nice and smooth.  The vast range of scenery as we drove on the roads of Ohio were interesting. We saw things like large corn fields and farms with llamas and cows.  Then i took a well needed nap. Once i arrived at the campus i was hit by a sudden heat wave.  It was extremely hot and humid here unlike the weather in New York.  The campus however, was beautiful.  It was very big and has a lot of green grass.  The only thing i can say i dislike is how far the walks are from building to building.  To cool down the hot weather a thunderstorm passed by dropping rain on us causing the campus tour we were on to be cut short.  The dinner we ate was okay but i was hoping it would get better. I also enjoyed the ice cream social we had because it had stopped raining, the ice  cream was great and we got to really interact and get to know our fellow companions at young writers.  The people here are EXTREMELY nice and welcoming.  Although a few are different than the usual New Yorkers, it’s normal because we are not in New York, obviously.  I was excited for the next day.
