What's Up

School is over, students have moved out of the dorms, and MBU staff is getting half-days off on Fridays. However, I'm still living in the dorms, preparing for a couple summer classes, and not working at all on Fridays.

My roommate Katie moved out this past Friday after staying for track. I must say that she had about three times the possessions I have in the room, so when she left the room became almost empty. Sounds echo now in the room.

Since I carried over my items from the apartment to the dorm, most of them are black, white, or red--that was the color scheme of my room in the apartment. I have a black comforter, black basket, black trash can, black TV, white microwave, black frame encompassing a black and white photo of Elvis, and a black poster of The Phantom of the Opera that I got at the Fox. My splash of color: a red Busch Stadium pennant. With the exception of a few items and what is in my drawers and closet, that is all I have in my room.

Besides adjusting the the "new" room, I've had to adjust to the ghost town atmosphere. Especially down Dink Marler and at the dorms, there just isn't many people around! My social life primarily consists of coworkers and office neighbors at work. I like them though, so I'm cool with that. :)

Anyway, since the letting out of school I've been living a much quieter and solitary life. It makes me look forward to going home on the weekends much more. As a side note, I've noticed that I appreciate and enjoy my parents more than usual these past three weeks.

That's all for now.
