So, Brown? Not so good with first impressions. (Have not had first class yet, I hasten to add.)

I mean, on one hand, the whole, "You're at college. Be free!" thing is really cool, because it can get kind of frustrated to be, you know, ordered around and structured like you're a four-year-old. But on the other hand, especially when you're in a new environment, it can be kind of helpful, because at least you learn where the hell you're supposed to go. Right now all I know is that there are three dining halls, one of which I have been to, one of which is, apparently, next door, and one of which has the sign-ups for, oh yeah, basically the thing I came to this program for: the college visits. Where is it? Not entirely sure. (To be fair, though, I didn't go on the tour. Whoops.) Also, not sure where our class is actually being held, and they misprinted and didn't have enough books, so I have to go by the bookstore and see if the new printings have come in yet.

And the bad side of being in a single and thus, not having a roommmate, is that with a roommate you always have someone to call on and, you know, go places with.

Aw. Yeah, sometimes colleges hide things. It's like a post-admissions IQ test. ;)

New England has a thing with stonework.

It's probably much easier to catch you if they actually care whether you're doing it. It becomes more complicated in a real!college setting, because the enforcing RAs are also drinking and probably doing some kind of drugs.

It may be that things tend to be more expensive on the East Coast (well, in New England). I think things like power and utilities are more expensive. Thus, more random surcharges. (but I'm not entirely sure, and my brain is a little melty today.) that, or Brown is just a ho.

Yes, and now we don't have class in that building anymore, because my teacher saw it and hated the condition. Now I have to find another building. (It was a cool building, though. Old-fashioned, and part of a theatre, and really sunny, with all these boxes everywhere, and this really, really old-fanished jazz music playing -- so atmospheric. Loved it just for that.)

I've noticed the more expensive part. *sad*
