Kimya Dawson's songs are so adorable. I've been listening to her non-stop for the past week. Kimya Dawson, The Moldy Peaches, and The Terrordactyls. And that's basically it.
Went to Creative Writing for the first time in a while on Thursday and the freshman are (mostly) delivering. There's this adorable girl who writes poems about Jesus but she never addresses him as such. At first, I didn't like any of her poems because I felt like they were cheesy and lacked honesty. But she's been bringing in some excellent stuff. Then there's this girl, Melina, and she writes what I wish I could write- concise yet hard-hitting poetry that leaves you wondering why five words bring you to tears. The Emerald will be good, I'm sure, if we can only weed out all of the sappy, over-emotional love poems that we keep getting. Sigh.
I'm officially enrolled at Rowan. I don't know how to feel about that. I can't help but think I'm settling for less. Part of me wants to throw myself into UNH, but I know it would just bring me homesickness and pounds of debt. Another part thinks I should take up Arcadia's offer. Even Dmach told me I should go there, that it's "better than Rowan." But then, of course, Dr. Dunn keeps telling me that Rowan is an "up and coming school," that their engineering program is really becoming a "big deal" and they're known for education. Which is wonderful except I'm not going into either of those fields (as of yet.) Rowan also has a shitty website that tells me my "login failed" everytime I try to apply for housing. Stress, stress, stress.
But tomorrow I go to philly so maybe that will get my mind off things. Or maybe it will stress me out more, who knows. I'm waking up early so I can work on the housing stuff and make myself breakfast before I leave. Finally excited.
