FALL BREAK, BITCHES

It's fall break, the Metro works, and DC smells a little funny. What what whaaaat.

This shit took forever, but we heart College Park.

Yeah... I don't miss home either

Yo!! I'm having a great time up here. Molly and I actually have a lot of mutual friends (just like high school right?). I haven't replaced anyone; instead, the people here are like fresh glasses of water, or heroin. So many cali girls in my life right now. They're better than Blake cali girl, don't worry.

I pretty much have no complaints about this place. I love my classes (Oceanography, Psych, The Modern Mind, and French) and the campus is beautiful. I'm not having trouble adjusting but I do miss Jamie a lot. We still talk all the time though. I guess I could complain about my roommate a little but he also provides necessary entertainment so I dunno. He's just SO STRANGE and I want to staple his mouth shut. Seriously. Fucking weird. I don't even want to get into it.

I find I'm doing the same thing I did in high school--making friends with clashing groups of people so that I can never be a whole person or feel part of a singular community. It is... my destiny.

Oh, and I haven't smoked a single bit of weed since I've been here. Had a little bit of edible stuff, maybe, but no smoking. Healthylungz09! Anyway, hope you guys are doing well. Tiko, hook me up with your boy Andrew so we can get married, adopt a kid, and name him Andrew too.

Doing what I want, liking what I do

Good thing Tiko sent out that really threatening Facebook message, or I'd have never posted this here Beat Blog.

College is pretty cool. I'm still on a semi-regular sleeping schedule. I eat too much. I usually do almost all of my homework.

Here are my classes:

-Elementary Latin: Lots of memorizing, but it's a fun language. My teacher is adorable because she's Swiss, so she has a cute little accent that makes us confused about the correct pronunciation of "v".

-Culture and Crisis in the Golden Age of Athens: Studying 'roundabouts 500 BCE through the Peloponnesian Wars. The last third of the semester, we assume Athenian alter-egos and "react to the past" (ie. roleplay the aftermath of the Peloponnesian Wars). Tight.

-Introduction to Syntax: A linguistics course that is slowly but surely beginning to kick my ass. It's interesting, though. Makes me consider minoring.

-Performance and Self: ... Gay.

I have a total of one grade in two of my classes, and no grades in the other two. Yus.

I'm participating in the musical theatre club, Greasepaint. Actually... I have a lead in Urinetown (if you're familiar with the show at all, I'm Pennywise). So that's pretty cool. I was going to join Bi-Co News, but it seems like a really big commitment, especially since I haven't really gotten any grades back for writing yet... womp womp.

My friends are cool. I like them, although I certainly haven't replaced any of you. I haven't encountered Alex at all, probably because I haven't journeyed to Swat, not even for its legendary Freshman Dis-Orientation.

I don't actually miss home at all.

:D
