13 Days Later

Here I am, exactly 13 days after my parents dropped me off at Ohio University. Classes have begun, I've gotten into a routine and am beginning to simmer down. The excitement and freshness of living in a new county is somewhat gone... so now what?

I suppose I'll go home for the World's Fair. I was faced with a dilemma though - should I rush instead? You heard me. Rush weekend is this weekend. Ultimately I've decided against it though, and here is my short pro and cons list why:

PROS

-I would meet new girls

-It would be entertaining

CONS

-I could just do it next quarter

-I would waste a perfectly good weekend at the Bellville Street Fair

So I guess the cons won that one.

It's weird how everyone is so drastically different here. Different beliefs, interests and opinions make for excellent conversation. But, I somewhat miss the regularity of my old life. The comfort in knowing everyone and their past was a nice feature of a small town. I especially miss the support of my good friends. I have not made connections like that yet, but I guess it's only been two weeks.

You know what I really miss? Don't take this creepily but.... small children. I never ever see them! All there is on campus is college kids and professors; I just miss how refreshing it is to see a cute kid!

Anyway, I should stop procrastination and do my German homework. Auf Wiedersehen.
