So here we are, exactly seven days since I decided to post every day.  I’ve kept up my promise to post daily and I intend to carry on as far as I can.

Had a pretty up and down day today.  First I got two grades that didn’t make me very happy, considering that I had put in a lot of effort.  Then, today being the D-Day for fall housing, I looked on in shock as all the good rooms went quickly.  Thanks to my shitty lottery number, all the good rooms I had picked out were taken before I got my chance.  So, things were not going particularly well.

But I was able to pick into a room right across from a friend and then two more friends selected rooms on the same floor.  Quite a turn of events, I must say.  I went from wondering if I would even know anyone near me to a situation where everyone that I knew and had not selected suites are going to live right next to me.  Then a friend came over to visit and we got some good Ethiopian food and played Rock Band and Smash Bros.  And thus the day ended on a high note, in stark contrast to the way it had begun.  I now have the pleasure of working on 3 different essays for the next two weeks.  My friends, the good times have only just begun.
