I am listening to the Evens in some HUGE headphones in my dorm room at SFU, which is already somewhat messy, but immaculately decorated. From my window I can see gigantic trees, glittery Vancouver lights, the Pacific and the Rockies. It's a binge for the eyes.
Today my new friends and I did our laundry in our pyjamas and played Scrabble, had sack races with our laundry bags while waiting for the dryers and hiked all around Burnaby Mountain at dusk. I really am delighted to be here, even if leaving Newfoundland was more than a little hellish. I'm confident that I made absolutely the right decision.
I start classes tomorrow- Philosphy and German in the morning, Microeconomics in the afternoon. I'm ridiculously excited. We all are- Scott in Theatre, Nina and Kayla also in International Relations and Nassim in Enviro. I really love them- we spent alllll yesterday afternoon in this place called Turks on Commercial Drive drinking free trade and talking about global issues. This is everything I ever could have asked for. I start volunteering at the campus radio station and the queer centre this coming week, and i think i'm going to join the yoga club and SFPIRG.
THESE THINGS EXIST!
Gone back to strict vegetarianism, considering going vegan again because it's pretty easy- caf food is awful except that they do some kinda cool things with tofu. I'll live.
Class in seven hours. I can't believe this is finally fucking happening.
Whoa.
