the joys of college!

Even in the quaint engineering dorm of Crosman, students yesterday evening were piling on top of each other and having dance parties featuring the popular dance tune "Rock Your Body." The hall party ended in tragedy when multiple participants grew bored. Hopefully this event will end more happily in future occurences.

Ay ay ay. Well, college is... interesting so far. My roommates are tolerable but time will tell. I've only eaten dorm food once so far, at Libby Hall, and it was pretty nice. The seating area was cute and there were grilled cheese sandwiches that reminded me of the kind they made in the school cafeteria - the greasy kind. I love that kind.

My roommates are far more social than I, and so I've been spending some time with them hanging out in guys' rooms and talking to people. Amanda's died her hair red since the senior picture she sent. The change is a bit startling. Ashley's pretty nice, and very neat, and apparently she smokes. Which sucks but whatever. She can't do it in the room and my sense of smell is warped anyway so I doubt it'll bother me. I guess she must've lied on her dorm registration form; they're supposed to pair up smokers with other smokers and vice versa.

Ashley also initiated the hair-scrunchie-on-the-door discussion. I'm looking forward to that. *cough* Uh, yeah. Or not.

I also made the interesting discovery that there appear to be only two comp sci majors of the female sex. Me being one of them. What the hell. I thought engineering was supposed to be 20% women??

However, the good news is I ran into Sarah on the way from the UMC, textbooks in tow. So her and the pillar and I shall be hanging out later in the evening. Woot.
