Here I am. Sitting in my room on the eighth floor of Mertz Hall at Loyola University in Chicago.
I feel so weird. I only know a few more people than I did when I got here. I still have no roommate. I've been listening to my iPod on shuffle for a few days, and I'm on sone 256. I'm starting to realize that random is a bad idea because songs that I would probably be better off not hearing right now come on. But since I started the shuffle, I feel like I need to get through my whole iPod on shuffle. But it occasionally makes me a bit sad. The good news? One of the showers here has amazing pressure. Oh man. It's probably one of the greatest things ever.
I have a class at the Water Tower Campus which is right there at Michigan Ave. I'm pretty stoked about that. So two days a week I have no choice but to go into the city. Like I'd really need an excuse...
I am thinking, though, that the next few days until classes start could be miserable. Especially if it rains for more than today.
"Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know...
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?"
