Home Again, Home Again Jiggity Jog

So here I am back on good ol' Bryan Hill. I'm laying in my new bed right now trying to decide if I should shower and go get my picture taken, or not. I woke up with a headache. I think I have a laughter hangover. Jillian, Elisabeth and I were up till 1:30 last night having a welcome back party. Let the good times roll.
I now live in what is affectionately been dubbed "The Palace" aka North Hall, the brand new dorm on campus. It's very different and very far away from everything else on campus. But I think I like it. I live on NE 4th aka The Garden. My old roomie Ashley is the R.A. We have movable furniture here. So there are good and bad things about movable furniture that I found out yesterday. It is very hard to arrange, especially when your room is smaller than everyone else's and you cannot find your roommate. But our room is dang cool now. My bed is high though and I need to get a step stool. I really wanted a little milking stool but the Dayton Wal-mart doesn't have them. I don't know why not, there are cows all over the place. I'll post pictures when my room is fully assembled and I can either (a) get Ashley to take pictures with her new digital camera, or (b) pry her new digital camera out of her cold dead hands. It was really hard to unpack because I had a nice system going in Long and now I'm surrounded by drawers and storage everywhere. It is bewildering. But I think I found an arrangement that I like.
So when I showed up Sunday night I didn't know who my roommate was, or if I even had one. I found out that I do have one. Her name is Summer and she plays soccer. She is a sophomore and transferred to here from another school. I think she may be frightened of me because she doesn't talk to me unless she has to. But when she does talk to me at length I like her. So this will be an interesting experience.
I think I will go see if Ashley is awake and if she has aspirin.

Did you ever find your fish?

Nope. Check my room for me will you?

Hurray for rearranging rooms! I'm sure yours is the coolest on campus. You should post pictures. How did you lose your fish?!
