Well, I've been living at university in my dorm/apartment thing for about a month now (as of two days ago, I think!). We have the suite style (two bedrooms, little kitchenette, bathroom) and so far, things have been good living in residence. We believe that the majority of the people on our floor are second year, though, and they all know each other already D:
Our apartment is still taking a bit of getting used to, I have to say. Every time something goes wrong we attribute it to a ghost, which is probably not the most logical thing to do (our building is only four or five years old, too, and as far as I found through Google, nothing has happened here. =P Yeah...we were scared enough to Google). Today smoke was coming into my room through the vent (which would be keeping my room warm if the heat were on. We still only have air conditioning)- I thought it was Sam, so I knocked on her door and asked her to cover her vent so it wouldn't keep coming into my room. She was sleeping, therefore...not smoking anything. My entire room smelled like marijuana. I think I'm going to blame that on our loud-upstairs-night-owl-neighbours, though. :)
I've been meeting people through classes, though: Adrianna in Criminology, Pascale in Reasoning & Critical Thinking, Tori in Spanish Culture...Not a whole lot of people, I guess. There is also a girl in my Literature and Composition class that goes everywhere barefoot. She sits next to me in class and is pretty nice, but I don't know how she does it. It poured rain today, there is mud everywhere, and the temperature hardly got over thirteen degrees celsius. I don't know whether to be impressed or concerned, honestly.
Speaking of Lit and Comp, my professor is awesome (though he reminds me a little of Tobias on Arrested Development in some aspects). I really look forward to going to that class. There's only forty two people, so it's much easier to actually hear the discussion and participate in it (not that I have...yet. Heh).
The thing I am most excited about is coming home!!!! It's a little after 2 AM here, which means it is technically Thursday- so I come home tomorrow, on Friday! Sam's aunt and uncle are driving in to get us, and my parents are driving us back Monday morning, after Thanksgiving. I'm really happy to get back to Cobourg (...surprise)! I think this is the longest I've ever gone without seeing my family and, while it kind of sucks, I think I've gotten used to living kind of on my own.
Thursday is Sleep Day (no classes for me!) so I'm going to go get a head start. I will see all you Cobourg/Northumberland County people this weekend.
