Alright well. Nothing to really do right now. I'm waiting for Lainey to shower so we can go get some fucking breakfast. I'm starving. I walk all the time. It's nice, but almost annoying. It takes so long to get anywhere, I always want to sprint places. Just so I get there faster.
College is, however, a blast. My roommate is totally cool and we got along and I don't think there will ever be a point at which I will want to wring her neck. Which is a good thing. And even though the walking is annoying, it's still pretty nice because the campus is pretty and I kind of enjoy walking... I just don't enjoy it at 7am, when I need to leave for my classes.
Yesterday I hung out with Nina and Liz during the day and finally got my books ($465! w000 h00) I was bummed though because the weather got sucky so we never got to go to the involvement fair. I need to find things to fill my time with.
Let's see, what else? After that I went to Nina's and spent the night there, mostly jsut so I wouldn't have to walk the mile back to my dorm at 3am in the rain. That whole sentance just seems like a bad idea, no? It was fun though, bonding time with Nina.
There was also bonding time with the suitemetes yesterday thanks to our awesome fire drill. They all seem pretty cool, as well. I love the set-up of our dorms, and I love how much space I get, but seriously this hiking thing is going to get old.
But on the bright side, there's a UDF nearby. Ice cream and cheap coffee. It's only 99 cents for a 20 oz cup with that french vanilla stuff you get from the machine. So delicious. Which reminds me, I need to buy coffee for my dorm. And filters. I need to run errands already. So pathetic. I'm an idiot and didn't even remember to bring pillows. So we bought some. Then again, I only slept in my bed once (it's so cute and colourful!) so it matters very little.
There is so much to do here. Finding all the places to eat in is the first mission I have. So far the Marketplace on Neil is my favourite. The food is delicious, fresh, and won't kill me by age 30. They even have sushi! Delicious sushi, even better than heinen's. It made me very happy. There's also the pizza place in Drake (which is one of the few buildings anywhere near us) that's pretty good for if you want some 'za. We got a big pie of cheese and split it yesterday in the suite (well just me and chelsea and laura, really, and some random kid from the 1740s who smelled pizza and pounced on his opportunity.) and there appears to be food in the rpac. So we'll see. There's so many options here, I love it!
Tomorrow classes start. Not as fun, I'm sure. But I'm still kind of excited. I'm a student at heart, I missed learning new things. Then again my chem book kind of makes me want to die. I don't really know if I'm smart enough to take that class.... Lainey's in there, too, though. I should be alright.
It's fun here, and the people have all generally been nice, but there's something to be said about the old friends back home. I was walking today and I swore I saw Dano, but of course he's at Mount Union. The other day I thought I saw Jack, and I keep expecting like Caitlin and Shannon to just be around. It's really a very odd feeling, knowing none of those people are around. I'm not like homesick or anything- I'm greatly enjoying freedom- but I just wish there were some people here that aren't.
Oh well, you make new friends, right?
Okay Lainey seems almost ready, I'm going to haunt her until she is.
