Home sweet home

Sun Sep 02, 2007 22:56 (UTC -5)

For the Labor Day weekend, my sister and I have come home. It sure is different from my dorm at UF’s Hume Hall, but I’m getting used to college life pretty nicely. In fact, I’m surprised at how used I am to it already. Maybe college really will be the time of my life.

Even then, it’s nice to be back home, if only for a few days. Here I have no worries or cares, and my mom can cook for me and do my laundry. What’s not to love? Plus, my friend Nick had a barbecue at his house this afternoon. It was pretty much an indoor barbecue, but we did swim in his pool, which was nice. Later, we went to the beach… at night. It seems that I’ve been to the beach at night more often than during the day. It’s probably true, in fact.

I got here yesterday afternoon, and after a short day (today), I have to leave tomorrow morning. I’m pretty mad about that. I’m also mad because I’m tired, but I don’t want to believe that myself.

Let’s cut to the Ask Jordon.

ALISON : R U HAPPY?

Overall, yes. I’m glad that college isn’t so bad, and I’m seeing it as an exciting time to make new friendships and learn valuable life lessons. Next.

ARianna: you have made a “minor scale chart thing” and I was hopeing you had a “major scale chart thing somwhere as well. DO you?

No. Maybe I’ll make one sometime, but I only made the minor one because I couldn’t find a very good one on the web. Finding a major scale chart was easier.

Ashley McGee: Gilligan’s Island was cancelled right before the 4th season was to start. Would the castways have made it off if they knew it was the final show?

I don’t think so. They had all that time to make radios out of coconuts and everything, and there were always exciting visitors who would come for a day or two and then get picked up from the island or something. I think our favorite castaways just wanted to stay on the island to protect their staid, secure selves from the sociopolitical upheaval that was occurring in the United States from 1964-1967. It’s the only explanation that makes sense.

Seems like you’ve already discovered the joy of bringing laundry home for Mom to do. Moms of college students all over the country look forward to this. Really. Don’t let the eventual complaining about it convince you otherwise.
