A bare-chested Abercrombie man is staring at me from my roommate's wall. He's creeping me out.

And she isn't really allowed to have that up there, but I am not going to go report her or something. She just shouldn't be surprised if someday her precious, creepy pretty boy is missing from beside her desk chair. Gag.

Anyway, I might possibly have something interesting to report in a day or so, but as for now, I just felt like writing. I have a little bit to go on an essay that is due today in freshman composition that I am putting off. It's a terrible essay, quality-wise, but I don't care. I figured I would conserve my writing energies for a real essay.

Greek is a difficult class, I must admit. Mainly it is difficult because I have to learn a new alphabet. I have to train my eyes and mind to interpret the symbols as letters, not just weird lines on a paper. Then I have to take those letters and translate them into sounds and then I have to connect those sounds with English words ... It's crazy. Not to mention people use some Greek letters without even realizing it, and they pronounce it wrong, so I have to remove that from my mind also.

Did you know the word "alphabet" is Greek? It comes from alpha and beta, the first two letters of the Greek ... alpha ... bet ... a

I have chapel in half and hour. Two more classes today and then it is the weekend. [insert Stella-esque cheering noises]

Tonight we have a big BBQ party type thing and a "movie in the Greek."

Oh. Haha. Okay. So my school has its very own Greek ampitheater. Basically, before this was a school, a crazy rich lady lived here. She liked Greek theater, so she decided to have a Greek ampitheater built on her property. Naturally. She also believed that she would be reincarnated as a turle, so some of the old buldings on campus have very short steps so that the crazy turtle lady could still go upstairs.

Anyway, they are showing Hitch. It will be fun.

I am kind of meeting people here. But I am still going insane because I have no one here to talk to and be stupid around and make dumb comments to. It's sort of lonely, in a way. There is a whole part of me that has no outlet right now because I don't know anyone here well enough yet. How frustrating.

I miss you. I have to leave now.
