My Home

Here I am, 2:30 in the morning, doing homework still and procrastinating because I really don't want to do it. (I have to do marker layers and my hand is cramping up because of the stupid project). In my stalling of work I got to pondering about how, in such a short time, this place has become another one of my many homes to me. It's so much smaller than anything I've ever lived in before, but I love being here as much as I ever have anyplace else, and I've lived here the shortest amount of time.
I know that at the end of the year we'll all have to pack up and leave the place and next year I'll have a different room (maybe on my own, fingers crossed for being an RA) and I won't live here again, but it just seems like such a strange thing. I can't imagine not being here, with these people. I've grown so close to everyone here in a short time, and while I'm excited for everything that's coming this summer, it'll be sad to see this place go. It's old-ness and odd quirks have grown on me, and I feel like it just adds to the experience of my freshman year here.
It feels so much like it's our place here, we furnished it and made it our own. It's my first time living with other people, specifically girls my age, but it's so nice. We coexist very peacefully (in our own sort of peace that is) and it's surprisingly enjoyable. There's also just all of the crazy things that we do that I know that I'm going to miss. The shopping trips to Meijer that usually happen more often than not after midnight. Staying up until all hours of the night in the hallway just talking and having a rad hall party (we've solved many a problem out there). Watching scary movies even though we know that sleeping is going to be hard afterward just because we like to have the shit scared out of us. There are so many more aspects to living here that I love that I just know I'm going to miss terribly.
Who knew that I was going to end up enjoying college quite this much? I sure didn't. I mean, I expected that I was going to like it, sure, but I didn't know I would as much as this. It's been a great first semester, and I'm so excited to go on enjoying the rest of the second one. That's all for my late-night musings.
