Life in the Dorm
I moved in yesterday, and so far it hasn't been too bad. I had some trouble setting up my computer because the monitor didn't want to work right, but that's probably the worst thing that's happened to me since I moved. Luckily it was just a bad driver and my boyfriend helped me fix it over the phone. It's working fine now, as you might guess.
I was expecting my bed to be uncomfortable, but I slept surprisingly well last night. However, that may have been due to the fact that I had gotten almost no sleep at all the night before and because I didn't get around to going to bed until after 1 AM. I was up that late organizing my belongings and making sure that everything was unpacked and put away. I probably should have gone to bed earlier and worked on it today because I'm kind of bored right now, but the girls in one of the rooms down the hall were so loud that I probably wouldn't have been able to fall asleep if I'd gone to bed earlier anyway.
The shower was also surprisingly decent. I didn't have high expectations for it, but it had pretty good water pressure, and it never seemed to run out of hot water. However, I did wake up pretty early this morning and I'm pretty sure nobody else was using the bathroom while I was in the shower, so that may have something to do with it. My only complaint is that it was difficult for me to shave my legs in the cramped space, but I think after classes start I'm going to start shaving my legs at night, when I won't have to be somewhere at a particular time.
Well, my roommate should be arriving soon, so I'll write more later~
