I'm here

Okay. I have finally decided it's time for me to start a blog.
I have a very eventful and thoughtful life and I enjoy sharing the details with people.
I thought this would be a good way to share.

I also have a confession.

My name isn't really Willa Dellavit. I made it up. I looked through a bunch of name meanings and other languages to find words that I liked.

The name I came up with means: Desire for life. I feel that it accurately portrays me.

I love life.

It's fun. 

Currently, I am sitting in a computer lab at my school; Western Washington University, not doing my homework and waiting for the next thing on my schedule to begin. 

I live in a house on the north side of campus. I park on the street in front of my house. Last week I walked out to my car to find a giant hole in my trunk. It was depressing. They didn't even leave a note.
So I did what you should do when something like that happens. I notified the police and my insurance company so I could get it fixed. Now its in the shop almost done. 

It'll cost me $300 when I pick it up.

It could be worse.

My insurance is paying for the rest of the 2 grand. I'm glad I don't have to.

Because my car is not available to me right now, I've been using other peoples' cars to get to work. I borrowed my roommates car earlier this week. When I got home, I left the lights on. Next day at work, (I drove my neighbor's truck this time) I get an angry text from him saying he couldn't get to work because his battery was dead and had to have someone pick him up. My bad.

I am accident prone... Probably more than most other people. Earlier this year, I lost his credit card. 

(A girl just walked into the computer lab with the same back pack that I have. I've seen her around. Sometimes I wonder if other people notice me as much as I notice them.)

The homework that I should be doing right now is physics. My major here at WWU is environmental geology. Physics is a requirement for this. I have a midterm next week. I should be studying. I don't really like studying. I don't really like doing homework either. But who does? It's something we just have to do.

I can't wait until the day I get to actually do meaningful work in the field. Not just some made up hypothetical situations from a textbook that probably would never happen in the real world. 

Though, since I've been in physics, I've started to look at the world differently. I have started to think about things in vectors. I've started doing vector addition when thinking about everyday things.

It's interesting to think about all the science that we know. It's mind boggling. I love science. All sciences too. They're all related to a degree. There is so much out there. We know so much.

But there's still a lot we don't know...

I hope that someday, I'll be able to make discoveries of my own. I want to name something.

Now it is time for me to go. I have lacrosse practice to go to. 

We will meet again shortly.
