When we got to the apartment/townhouse on Saturday, we discovered it was filthy! like so disgusting that the previous people probably never cleaned. We spent most of our time moving furniture from the van across 3 lanes of traffic and scrubbing walls. It was an interesting weekend. I was able to get the bedroom I wanted despite one roommate expressing disbelief that my furniture would fit in it. But it did and in fact I've got some space left over, maybe for a comfy chair or something, as my room has become the hang out spot upstairs. We really don't spend much time downstairs yet but I am thinking that might change as the year progresses. Its starting to feel more like home but I haven't put anything up on the walls yet because I want to paint. So all the white is driving me slightly crazy.
I went and got my Panther Card on Monday. Its my student ID, bus pass, debit card all rolled into one. I'm so not at AQ anymore. It was very surreal to take the bus downtown and get off among skyscrapers to get to my college. It was HUGE! I kinda loved it.
Yesterday, I went with a new roomie to the doctors where we discovered she has mono. It made me giggle. It made the 3rd roommate freak out and move her toothbrush. I think that sums up our attitudes towards everything.

HEY! MONO IS NOTHING TO GIGGLE ABOUT!!!
(The mere fact that you had to scrub the *walls* freaks me out... a lot.)
It freaked me out the first night too.
But it seems that no one lived here for quite a while before we moved in so the walls needed to be dusted. Then it looked like they liked to run their hands up and down the wall as they used the steps.
So it wasn't like I was scrubbing food or mysterious stains off the wall which in that case I would have run all the way back to MI.
So. Jealous. Must. Visit.
I got my student ID today too! Not very fancy though and I think my face looks pretty fat. Oh well.
Did you kill the spiders yet?
