New Home

Today was my appointment to sign up for housing next year. My roommate and I decided to stay in the same building but we moved down two floors and gained a private bathroom and a kitchenette! I am so excited to have a kitchen!!! I don't even have words. I just wish we had it now. The apartment (yes apartment, not room) consists of a large living room with the kitchenette taking up one wall next to the coat closet. There is a small bathroom, but it is all ours! and a tiny bedroom with a large closet. I think the bedroom is only a tiny bit smaller than the room we are in now that has to hold way more stuff than this one will.

We have already offered our stove-top and kitchen space to our friends in the building who are not as fortunate. Especially since in a normal room you can't have a microwave. We can and will.

Here comes the last stretch until summer and it is already starting to get bittersweet for me. I have made a few good friends here on campus and even thinking about our separation for the summer break makes me sad :'( On the other hand I am really ready to be home. I miss my doggy and my family. Plus I am really really excited for Grease this summer and finding an awesome job...not(at least the job part) although I hear Starbucks is hiring at the two locations podunk St. Helens now boasts. Wee, I guess I might have a highly caffeinated summer. Fun.

Actually right now things feel great here at school and I have been doing really well and I am proud of my accomplishments here. Academically my classes aren't any harder than the ones I had at PCC, but this school is regarded as academically one of the best in the nation...hmm, but I guess if I can do well here it doesn't matter where I went before.

I also thought I might take this opportunity to premiere a picture from my Black Chocolate which I have dubbed Dean. This is from last week in the lovely weather and the cherry blossoms in Trombley square.
