| | What a ridiculously long week, and it's only Thursday. Moving into a new state, new room, new people is super hard. It wasn't until yesterday as I was unpacking and feeling relatively alone in my new (did, I mention huge!) room, that I realized how big Penn State is and how real the concept of not knowing anyone here was becoming. But, my mom took me out for eggs and then thai food and after saying goodbye, things started getting better.
One of my roommates, Joanna, and I headed to the HUB (because our internet doesn't work in our room) last night, and after getting some random facebook message from a freshman musical theatre guy, I called him somewhat awkwardly up to say "what up!" Then, things started getting better, after randomly meeting two people in my class, but a whole bunch of random other ones, and attending a random jam fest in one's dorm room.
This morning I woke up and got ready, and, for the first time in months, I think that everything is going to be okay with college, and I'm actually, one hundred percent, genuinely excited. Sitting outside again, watching tons of people in PSU gear walk by, hearing a random big-band made up of old men play music outside the HUB, drinking the Common Ground coffee I brewed this morning!, everything feels great.
Now, I'm going to go see if my new roommates are here yet, look for a job, and get a gym membership.
College, in general, is great. |
