omfgldfasdf;j GRINNELL
So, I have decided that Grinnell should be my home for the next four years. Seriously. I loved loved loved the campus; it just felt right. I was more at ease walking around by myself there than I was wandering around Illinois' campus with a group of good friends. Go figure.
The english class I sat in on made me want to go hug a book, or an English prof. And the music class I visited was fascinating, albeit a bit over my head (must get book on theory to read this summer). I talked to the orchestra director, and he was uber-cool. I should practice more.
There's this AMAZING study carrel-thing in the library, a weird bird's nest-heaven sculpture by the arts building, a dining hall that looks like the Great Hall from the HP movies, two raquetball courts with mini-doors that I explored with my Grinnell-friend Laura, and an abundance of friendly people and activities. It's so right. I dunno. I just felt like I could fit in well there.
The cool thingy in the library. It's like a jungle gym for college kids!
Money makes things a *teensy* bit complicated, but I am determined to make this work.
Tonight was Relay for Life. 'Twas fun, sad, carefree, and serious at different moments throughout the night. And yet it all boiled down to "moving." I think I left at a good point, too, because the luminaria really reminded me of what the entire event was all about.
