I think I'm kind of in a pissy mood.
I got inadequate sleep last night.
Andy didn't help (you fuck).
Anyway. NMU is alright. The town is small, and I don't like that a whole lot. It's smaller than Jackson, and I want to get out of Jackson because it's so small. From what I see, a lot of the people are a lot alike. I feel like I'd have a hard time really fitting in here.. there's sort of a lack of the kind of people who would be all about Broken Social Scene or Sparta or something. There's a lack of a big local music scene, and no one ever really comes to the UP to play shows anyway. And I get nervous thinking about being 430 miles away from home.
However. The people are nice, and they have a good photography/arts and design program. A laptop is included in tuition. The scenery is gorgeous, and the water's not very far away at all. Downtown is fantastic, too. The old buildings are absolutely gorgeous, and the streets aren't even close to flat. Before I leave, I want to go down there and spend some of the film I brought.
So I don't know what I think.

I just came back from across the hall. I had to pee. "Why didn't I use the bathroom connected to the room?" you may ask. Well. I'll tell you why.
Our suitemates are freaking nasty..! UGH. They don't know how to flush, and this is really gross when certain things are liquidy that typically shouldn't be.. They put this nasty chunk of tan carpet on the floor that just collects water and hair and dirt and wicked nasty bacteria. There's this brush with half the bristles all bent up and wads of hair tangled in it sitting on the counter. One of them uses Pepsodent (Ash and Susie know how gross that shit is..). It always smells weird in there, no matter how many times a girl sprays the Oust. I hate it (I kinda feel like I hate it more than anyone else). So I use Krista and Cindy's across the hall as much as possible. Because they're awesome.
Nicole went home for the weekend so I get her side of the room until she comes back. Plus I have her room key. Yay!
It's 8:13 already. I'm more tired than I'd like to be. Maybe I'll go down to the lobby and finish sewing the massive holes in my pants. I've been in the room for a LONG time today..
