Failed Sending Notices

(August 29, 2011)
As you may already be aware, I attempted to send you not one, but two things this week that did not successful get to you. Grumble. The first was a meme of a fifties era woman that said, in big letters, "My soul was removed to make room for all this sarcasm." I contemplated posting it on facebook, before realizing that the number one person who ought to see it is in fact in Norway, and also not allowed on facebook. Quite a shame. That one turned into a truly enormous stream of text, for some inexplicable reason (or perhaps explicable if you understand anything about the internet other than how to facebook, email, and google things. But, you know...) Similarly, a shame.

The second was actually a video of me prattling on about random things. I thought you might find it entertaining. But alas, I prattle for far too long and it didn't attach to my message. That's what you're missing out on this week. My bad :P In the future, I shall attempt to send you things that you shall actually receive.

I've moved into my new apartment, finally. Yay!! I don't think that I informed you of this fact, but I definitely didn't find this place until, oh, two weeks ago? At the earliest? To give you an idea of how insane it is that I didn't know where I'd live during fall semester until mid-August: most people shop housing at the end of winter semester. So, March and early April. Yeah. Procrastination. My favorite vice :) Basically, I was pretty certain that I'd just have to live in a box, because it would be preferable to all the available housing I was capable of finding. But huzzah for people who change their minds about plans for fall semester, because it means that they sell their contracts!! So yes, I'm here among five other girls I'd never met before. They seem quite nice, actually. And the girl who's actually in my room with me seems very nice indeed. Of course, it's always hard to tell, because everyone's nice right off....but I have high hopes for these.

Other news, I have the top bunk once again. I had one my freshman year. Luckily, I'm in far less danger of smacking my face on the ceiling in this one (as I did, once or twice, two years ago [geez, freshman year was two years ago....why am I old......]), but there's no guardrail on my bunk. Which shouldn't be a problem. But I very nearly fell off already, going to sleep last night. That was my first night. Will keep you posted on that one :P
