It finally started raining today, relieving the greater GF area of some greatly unnecessary humidity... But that does mean that I am stuck inside my dorm still, when I could be biking to Hugo's for groceries. Last Friday I found that my bag of bread was finally starting to mold, which made me very sad, since I didn't once get to utilize both the sandwich meat and the bread together in a wonderful sandwich. And I'm out of yogurt, fruit, and cereal... and milk, now, too... so for breakfast this morning I had a package of "Peanuts" fruit snacks, a snickerdoodle cookie I stole from the dining center yesterday, and a half bottle of water.
Needless to say, my mind was kind of dragging when Calculus finally rolled around. Thankfully our test this morning didn't require too much brain power... but maybe I should hold off on that comment until we get our grades back... ;) yikes
Tonight I get to finish my first draft of my Honors Comp paper... Josh, please tell Catherine "thank you" for letting me borrow "Oleanna"!! It really is wonderful not needing to pay for all of my books :) Oh, yes, about "Oleanna"... tonight I will need to explain the inherent misunderstanding between John (college professor) and Carol (a student), and why it causes such catastrophe. Exciting, eh?
The Twin Cities trip turned out to be pretty fun. I got to see the cherry in the spoon for the first time... we walked by a hippie peace rally in a park... ate some really good Indian food (I know, this is radically interesting, as I hate the taste of curry in food... maybe it was counteracted with some good MSG :) ... "Death of a Salesman" was a real downer, although it was performed well... perhaps I just haven't learned to fully appreciate such tragic plays. Oh well.
It's strange to say, but I definitely felt a little "homesick" when I was in the Cities. The entire time, I kept thinking of the fun to be had back in GF, and the cool people on my floor... Definitely a weird feeling... but I guess it's a good sign that I'm finally getting into college life and maybe making some good friends :)
Wish me luck in getting to the store!! (Otherwise I may have to resort to starvation in a couple days, here... Ramen noodle soup for breakfast? Blech...)

I recommend eating your roommate. Then you have more space to put your stuff too!
Tis very good to steal food from dining centers, or cafeterias, or whatever you call them. It reminds me a bit of Ancient Sparta... where the boys in training would go and steal cheese... for some reason that I didn't entirely grasp. I like stealing Gatorade and Cookies better though...
Yay for goodly tests!
