"Wow...I look like crap."

Not the first thing you want coming to mind when you look in the mirror. But my hair's all wispy, my eyes are bloodshot...I had a migraine day today, and I ought to stay in bed on those days, but I had to go to Five Points for soap (from West Quad, now)... I'm disappointed because I was gonna start on a somewhat intense diet/exercise plan, but obviously my stress level is just too high right now, cause my body can't take it. Siccing migraines and dizziness on me...that's dirty. I thought I was going to pass out today...well, when classes really get underway and I'm used to my new surroundings, I can start, I guess. I just don't want to put this off for too long...it is way easy to talk yourself out of this sort of thing.

Anyway, I'm settled in my room now...I'm amazed at how clean it is in here. My room's a little bigger than last year...the common room's way bigger, but I don't use it much. (Well, I didn't use the common room in my last apartment that much either...) Everything looks almost the same (except the bookstore, which burped up a whole Starbucks while I was away, apparently...) Oh! Speaking of Starbucks...guess what they have here in the States now? Green tea frappucino (latte too, but I really like the frappucino)! That was one thing I was sad about leaving in Japan...ureshii... I wasn't expecting to see people until at least Tuesday, but I've already gotten to hang out with Stacie, and I saw Kayla and Brittany Jo and Dan...that made me really happy. I like my freedom, going where I want, when I want as much as possible, but I do get lonely sometimes...cause I like people, you know? :D Not just meeting new ones, but catching up with old ones too. I've fallen out of touch with almost everybody I knew in high school, some quite on purpose...somehow, I don't want college to be the same way.

Well, it's somewhat late (by normal people time. By college time, this is such a wussy hour to go to bed...), so I should probably go to sleep for the night... Last night was interesting. The TV or radio or something was on all night (or at least, every time I woke up, which was frequently), and then I was completely disoriented by the train, although it's thankfully much quieter from here than say, on the street...

I think I will learn not to be such a light sleeper.

Eventually.

...I hope.
