today (or yesterday, rather) i moved into my new dorm room. I got here about 11am and found that i was living in room 1006 in dykstra, which is the called the Penthouse since its at the highest floor in the building. The view from the 10th floor is fantastic, especially from my room. I can see downtown and everything. My sister moved in a few hours later, assisted by her friend Gigio. She's living down the hall from me in room 1042 i think. My roommate is a guy named Dennis. I dont know how to spell his last name cuz its some unique phillipino last name. He's a pretty cool guy; i think we'll get along just fine. Bobby (karen and jo ann's friend) is living in 1003 so we'll prolly be hanging out together. We went to shower and the showers in dykstra are pretty weird. Well i guess i think its weird cuz its so different from the showers in the other dorms. These showers dont have that extra stall space for you to put down your clothes and stuff on the bench. In dykstra the stall is very small and the shower is right inside. You have to hang your clothes on the bar above the stall door. It doesnt even have a place for you to place your soap. Anywho bobby and i finally figured out a plan of attack and was able to get in and out of the shower without incident. Then bobby and I, along with his roommate, went to diddy reese. I bought 6 cookies and an ice cream sandwich. I dont particularly like the cookies but i bought it so i could share with people. About two hours after i moved in a girl came to my room. I was playing Penny Tai songs and she walked in and said "hey you're playing taiwanese music." Her name is Cathy and she's from taiwan. She came to america a year ago and just finished her freshmen year at the University of Washington. She will be here for six weeks, but will be in the los angeles area (living in anaheim) all summer. We listened to some music and watched some music videos and talked for a while. She left but returned a few hours later to talk some more. She's pretty cute and really interesting; hopefully i will have time to hang out with her :) Anywho, my sister is in my room right now. She came over to hang out and eat my diddy reese cookies. I would eat them except i already brushed my teeth. Now she is eating them outside. I guess she doesnt want to bother my roommate who is sound asleep. I shall go join her now. More about summer school later. Good night people!
