i dont really understand how after just being there for a week i could feel so completely at home. i had a suite and my suite mates were awesome. 4th floor of unairconditioned heat... with 3 floors of guys below us.
things i will miss:
the bordem that was thayer street
pasta
peoples accents (southern, new york, spanish...)
ryan being weird and just standing in his door
pictionary
the independence
having someone a room a way so that when i was bored i could just be like, hi. im bored. lets talk
needing contact solution
being up hella late and then waking up at 7:30
spending enormous amounts of money on waterbottles
talking on the phone to my girls on that stairwell having billy make fun of me
walking to providence place in downtown providence
dressing like sluts night
compulsive shopping
the tap dancing guy
beadworks!
walking up the flights of stairs and almost collapsing because of the temperature change
the weird smell of our upstairs lounge
the airconditioned downstairs lounge
mafia reunion
getting lost in wayland... yes, legitimetly lost with jenn
the dry erase boards that don't erase
the funny postings on the street lamps
eating lunch with my class everyday
have the green to sit on
shopping for dork clothes
when i was leaving today i felt like such a loser because i felt like i was about to cry. it was so hard. so many people live so far away (i.e. puerto rico, michigan, texas...) and im probably never going to see them again in my life while at the same time i feel like ive known them my entire life. kacey- i cant wait to road trip it and party at the middle school!
some people thought that the week didn't live up to their expectations because it wasn't academically challenging enough. granted thats true but i also realized that no matter who the teacher is they can't possibly teach too much in just a week. for me though it exceeded my expectations. i never expected that i could be that comfortable with people that i just met and be so happy in such a new enviornment...
is it weird that i got home and i wished that i could just go back? or not necessarily back but just have the experiance for longer? or have my girls to talk to and play pictionary with?
