Room on Fire
By The Strokes
see related Saturday, Prospero and I moved on to campus.  He wasn't too much help though (being that he is an ivy plant).  He just chilled in my room while Mom, Dad and Nichelle all helped me bring in my many belongings.  Soon after we  finished Julie dropped in.  We all hung out for a while then I decided to take a shower while Nichelle went off on her own and Julie went in search of a few  people.  After she made the rounds she met up with my family and I.  We went out to Applebee's.  Good times.

Once we returned my parents bid us farewell.  Julie and I then went over to Cook.  She left soon there after. I ran into Jon 316, Alaska, Jon Merril, CJ, and Michael Prindle. I even lowered myself 
and ventured into the nunnery
to find Heather.  She wasn't there though
.  I did end up seeing Andrea, Sarah Exo, Alisha, and a bunch of other girls that I know.  Afterward, I ventured back to Cook to find Luci.  She came back with me to the apartment and hung out with Nichelle and I for a while but it was just killing her being secluded when there was so much going on at Cook.  She didn't stay long.  After she left Joanna, my wonderful neighbor stopped by. Once she left Nichelle and I just chilled together, talked and then watched "Secondhand Lions".  Tracy came in with her friend.  Soon after the movie Tracy and Nichelle headed to bed.  For me, my night was just begining. I started unpacking and decorating. I nocked out a lot before I laid down to sleep around 2 am.

This morning I woke up late-ish around about 10:30.  Nichelle and Tracy were both gone by the time I woke.  I resumed unpacking and decorating.   While I considered going to lunch I decided against it because I didn't feel like dealing with people yet.  I kept working until about 1pm.  By that time I was ready to shower and get dressed.  Nichelle got home while I was in the shower and talked to me while I got ready.  Around 2pm I ventured out of the apartment to go get a book from a girl in Keithley.  Afterward I AGAIN went to visit Heather who was NOT there.  Kelsey was but was also just about to leave so she hugged me, complimented me on my hair then departed.

On the way out I met Amy (my old across the hall roomie) and then I ran into Luci.  She and I went to Cook where we ran into Gillian. I chilled with them for an hour or so.  Afterward I tried to locate Heather yet again (I'm a rahter single-minded person and she was the main person I wanted to run into.)  I wandered into the Corum where I found CJ.  I hung out with her and another girl for a while.  As we were talking Heather and Jake walked by
.  I literally ran out of the Corum to go give her a hug.  She, Jake, CJ and I all went back into the Corum.  We talked for quite sometime with a few interchanges.  I ran into and talked to some other people.  Around 5pm I called Nichelle and met her for dinner.  (As you can tell, she and I are hanging out a LOT right now but I know that once the semester really gets started we are both not going to cross paths that much.  We are both utilizing these rare times of freedom when we can hang out).

We walked back to the apartment together after dinner with the intention to go to S.N.O.C. (a funny production put on by the RAs and RDs.)  When we looked at our apartment window around the time we were considering leaving (about an hour before it started) there was a HUGE line.  We didn't feel like waiting in line so ... we opted not to go and watch "Newsies" together.  We've spent the rest of the night together.  About an hour ago we headed to Meijer together.  We ended up buying shirts (I got one for $2 and one for $8 but it is long sleeved and I honestly only have one other long sleeved shirt right now).  We also bought a cool rug for the kitchen ($2.60 on clearance).  While there we also looked at some candles and other decorations.

The girls are going to let me decorate the apartment for the most part.  I am going to look for some cheap black or brown couch covers (possibly I will just get some black cloth or sheets-whatever is cheaper).  Nichelle and I decided on an African decor for the living/dinning room.  I found some AMAZING pictures of Africa that one of Christa's friend's took.  I am going to blow them up and print them at in the ITC then hang them up.  Tomorrow we are going back to Meijer and I intend to buy some other cheap decorations. (Don't worry mom, I am watching my money.)  Plus, I have the stuff that Christa gave me. I think I will use the material she gave me as sort of curtains (it isn't wide enough to cover one of the couches).

Oh. I promise. When our apartment and my room are finished I will be taking pictures and posting them.

I better get going. I have been working on this post on and off since 6:30.
