last day of summer vacation

There's a HUGE television in the basement of my dorm, (also pool and ping pong tables) and after the hall meeting I watched Family Guy with a bunch of other people. It was sooo much fun. It looks like I might be able to watch some of my shows without having a TV in my room, because several people there seemed excited about new shows starting. Watching stuff in a group is so different. I like it. During the meeting everybody introdused him or herself. There are about a dozen Japanese kids, four or five Koreans, two or three from Taiwan, a couple from Singapore (including the RA on my floor, but his English is so good I wouldn't have known), two English boys (askls;fie;kj!!!), one Australian, one from China (I think) and a guy whose nationality I didn't catch but I think is something Slavic. Nobody else is majoring in Medieval Studies.
Today was the convocation thing, and our speaker was some famous poet. The dude was funny. He had a deadpan humor thing going really well. It was pretty enjoyable, even if the chairs in the stadium were built my munchkins. (Seriously, my knees were hitting the back of the next row and I am NOT tall.)
Tomorrow classes start. With the moving, and all the new stuff that goes with living in a dorm, I haven't had all that much time to think about the school part. I only have two classes tomorrow, but I have an interview like two hours earlier (which sucks, because I don't get to sleep in).
Last night I got some SLEEP! Finally! Only about seven hours at the most, but it was honest-to-god sleep. I was so happy just to wake up this morning. To put a cherry on top I woke up to the most musical train horn I have ever heard.
