unij: YOU BET KID (what the HELL)

For ever and ever an ever green

Day one.

Here I am.

Kind of stunned, gotta say. Just like, wow wtf. I'm at college. Oh my god. What.

I'm excited. Totally. Amazingly. Like usually when I take big new steps in life, I get all nervous and scared, but I was just so ready for this.

Two of my roommates haven't shown up yet. Two of them seem like pretty cool girls, friendly enough and cool to hang with. The last one has kept to herself so far. Hopefull she'll open up? I think one of my biggest hopes is that we'll continue to get along.

I'm kind of awash in 'what now.' I mean I know what now, I've gotten it hammered in by my sister whom I love, but still, it's a little totally nuts. Just like a sudden overwhelming sense of "oh wow. I'm totally by myself now." It's new and different. But I didn't cry when Mom left, when usually I get all sad and separation anxiety-ridden.

My toes are very cold and there are a lot of little things we need to shop for, even though all of us did shopping with our parents AFTER we got here. Room is spacious, but bare. I didn't bring many decorative things with me. It'll fill up in time, I'm sure. It'll take getting used to. I need to get me a job.


My phone gets like no bars unless I leave it by the window =|

Yeeeeeeeeeayuh college. XD It sounds like you're starting to settle in really well, though, so that's good. :3

Get some decorative stuff and set aside time to put it up, because if you don't you'll wind up with a blank white wall all year. I've done that more than once. |D

Six people to a room? That's crazy.

Enjoy your independence. Don't turn into a douche like I did.

We're sending up some stuff (E.G. jacket...)for you when the folks get back from vacation, and I'll look for some decorative things. But yeah definitely get things on the walls because walls of white make you feel like you need a straightjacket to match.

Ugh, sorry to hear about lame reception; That's going to get annoying really fast :-*

Seems like things are going smoothly right now. I don't have any dorm moving in advice being a commuter student, and the one thing I could say from Japan exp. (make friends asap), you're on the way to doing all ready.

So... go graffiti the walls or something. =)
