floweranzaHey, flist! Don't know if there's anyone reading, but I'm sorry for the utter lack of postage recently, especially after such a big change in my life and location. So, first things first!
I really love this place. I don't know what else to say - I have photos of some hijinks uploaded on Facebook, and the only reason there haven't been many of me up yet is because people haven't uploaded them. Go kick their asses if you want photos. I'm enjoying myself and even though today is a rainy day, I still found humour in waiting for the Cambus with 15 other sodden students. Or horror, whatever your perspective is.
The sharp turn from Dubuque St. to Church St., followed by an even sharper turn on Church St. I was kind of thinking about getting a job driving the buses until I saw how fucking insane this turn is. Nevertheless, the bus system is amazing here; you can read up on it here.
People are cool. I like my hall and the people on it - well, the people who have fun at two A.M., and who run down the hall as the RAs from downstairs come up to yell at us. I do wish I were getting more sleep. Sleep deprivation has always been one of the causes of my depression, but I know the signs, so don't worry. (And I'm much more concerned about myself nowadays than I was before, too.) I also think college is turning me into a vegetarian. Sure, I'll eat meat, but not the dining hall meat. The food is fiiine, but I trust the salad much more than the dubious looking mystery in the steel tin, kthx.
Iowa is a great state with a lot of pride. Don't knock it. Learn where it is on a map, please? It's really not that hard to not confuse it with Idaho or Ohio.
All in all, I'm a fortunate person. Nowadays I like to think of the glass as more half-full than half-empty. Maybe I've been annoying some people with cheeriness, but I think undue cynicism is disgusting and unnecessary.
A shout-out to Kellie and Paul - thanks! You guys are awesome!
