The majority of my free time is now spent going from class to class, eating in the dining hall, doing homework and hanging out with my roommate in our room. I don't have much downtime and my work is already hard. On one hand this is good, because downtime for me relates a lot of the time so far with sadness. It's not so much homesick-ness as much as it is that I want everything here to just get better. It's as if everything that I was looking forward to escaping after high school just followed me here. I was hopeful to meet people with something to offer, and I know that there is a minority of interesting and cool people here who aren't like the said high school plague, but even being surrounded by it is really disheartening. It also doesn't help that the majority of my friends are in their perfect dream schools and are finding friends and deep people with relative ease. So I'm on the hunt. I am going to try to start a cool club that will hopefully attract the attention of someone I can be friends with. Yesterday I met Tim, and we were talking about music and he mentioned a couple of bands, one being Neutral Milk Hotel! That was encouraging for me. But as it's going so far due to classes and work, I am stuck in a cycle that goes something like this. Wake up, shower, get breakfast with my roommate, go to class for various hours, come back to my room, do my work, go to more classes, get dinner with my roommate, her boyfriend and her boyfriend's friends (they are funny), come back to my room with my roommate and her boyfriend, do more work, hang out with them, go to the coffee shop for ice-cream with everyone, come back to my dorm, do more work, go to bed, wake up and do it again. I want more, and I want more people.

Time to go to class..
