Once again I am gonna say... I love my dorm! It's amazing to look back and see how much living in Warner impacted my Freshman year. I already knew it ruined it but I couldn't comprehend loving it here this much, just by living somewhere else. My floor is full of such characters...there is never a dull moment. Even today when Kristen was bored out of her mind... "I've never been this bored..." she said, we were still laughing hysterically over something going on. And not only is my floor awesome, but I just feel like joining all these activities on campus has finally paid off. Last year I would walk around Newark and I would feel like I didn't know anyone. In Maplewood, I can't go anywhere without seeing a few people I know or at least recognize from my 19 years of passing them on the street downtown. Today every single place I went... and I went all over campus today... I ran into at least two people I knew. It was such a great feeling walking through Trabant and having all these people say "hello"... and then walking on Main St. and seeing even more people... and then walking back from Main St. and having another friend pass me on a bike. For the first time UDel doesn't seem like 17000 students. For the first time I don't feel like just a number. On my floor, I know probably the most fellow residents out of anyone. In JHP, I'm a lead intern. In the music buliding, I'm hanging out with people after class in the lounge just like I did in the band room in HS. And I'm keeping myself busy. I always keep myself busy (i.e. 18 credits last semester), but so far I have not had a night where I didn't do anything...and I don't plan on it soon. Last night I had work @ Caffe Gelato, tonight was a JHP meeting, tomorrow is a potential sorority meeting, Thursday is Into the Woods auditions, Friday is Shabbat Dinner, and Saturday is the first football game. And not only do I have all that and classes, but I have so many people to see and spend time with that I never even have to worry about eating alone like I did last year. As long as I keep my grades up... everything should be perfect. Now I just need to find a boyfriend... but meeting all these new people I've been crushing on a few different people...so who knows... maybe something will turn into more. Well thats all for now... I really should get to bed....though I don't have class until 12:20. I love MWF! I did stay up for 2 hours tonight discussing theories of the universe with Paul tonight cuz we're cool like that...ok ok... we're huge dorks... but whatever...if you've read this much of my entry you prob knew that already and love me anyways.
