Living in this place, I've determined, is the closest I've ever come to apartment living. There's still communal bathrooms and such, but this time there's no dining hall, no meal plan. I'm obliged to go shopping every week, and I'm allegedly cooking my own food. Fortunately for me, I live with Alicia, who is not completely incompetent like I am, and thus I have indeed eaten food almost every night since I got here! If left to my own devices, I'm sure this would not have been the case. I would be having, like, toaster oven pizzas, every night. And Kit-Kats. (Of COURSE they have Kit-Kats.)

I love you Alicia. ;_;

Got It

One of the best feelings in the world is when somebody gets fangirly over your characters. *heart*

I'm posting now because I saw someone today in the building who left a deep impression on me. He looked about early 20s, probably a study abroad student here, and he was dressed all in forest green -- a turtleneck and cargo pants. He looked very respectable and well-dressed. And on his hands he wore fingerless gloves, and around his wrists were spiked leather bands and jangly bracelets. His hair was very neat and blond, and he carried a backpack. He looked like the kind of guy you expect to see bald at 30.

I found this very impressive for some reason. I thought, now THAT is style.

I'm going to have to apply that impression now.
