Sociology was really interesting today— the 2-hour lecture went by surprisingly fast! And tomorrow I have linguistics!! I love my linguistics professor SO much. He’s amazing. His emails to us always end with “best, dc.” HAHA I LOVE HIM.

And I am sooo good at coming up with nicknames. Bahahahahha. Rosa is teaching me Korean and I am stoked…!!!! I love Rosa (I met her in linguistics! She, like me, is also a confused communications major). She’s probably one of my favorite people here at lil’ Davis. SHE IS MY KINDERED SPIRIT. Dayum, I am so proud of myself and my slammin’ people skillz, I just make new friends left and right. Srsly. OMG and today, I found out who wrote the creepy writing that’s all over my bedroom wall!! I met this third-year guy on the bus who was like bffs with the GIRL that wrote it. SO WEIRD. FATE. Oh and btw, the writing is sprawled out in thin white puff-paint all over the walls, so it creepily blends in with the semi-bumpy texture of the paint. It says things like: “Don’t go to sleep” and “I’m under your BED!!!” (exclamation marks and all) I’m pretty sure the one above my head (when I lay down on my pillow) says “this is your coffin,” but no one agrees with me, soo.. yeah. Isn’t that the creepiest shit ever??? YES, I KNOW. Anyways, I want to write/finally write a real update but I think I’m going to go eat dinner now. Castiliannnnn dining hall is like summer camp in Mexico, and it’s obviously the worst dining hall on campus, but it’s convenient so we go there often. Segundo is freaking amazing, and so is Tercero. Oxford Circle (the Cuarto one) is alright, but not really. Yeah. FOOD CALLZ. I will update when I get back instead of posting a new post, because I kind of hate when I do that. And D-Tran 2.0 is sooo fly, he said that he’d teach me the thug lyfe in return for art history study sessions. Best deal ever??? Yes.

Byebyebyebyebye and I love shopping for myself as an adult and going grocery shopping and riding the bus like an independent citygal. @ 6:34pm


Ok so I just came back from the grocery storeeeeee and gotz me some soy milk and yogurt and cereal bars. It was SO werid/strange because the Safeway here in Davis is exactly like the Vons shopping center in PQ, and it was really weird!!!!! Two of my worlds collidin'. Also, I have so many apples from the DC and I’m SET FO LYFE. The Office is on in 5 minutesssss so yeah. Probably going to go watch it with Z or something since Ali (one of my suitemates who I love sooo so much with all my heart and soul) is talking with her bf on the phone. I also like my roommate (Cassie), and basically I think I’m just lucky because I got put with good/funny people that make me laugh constantly. Ahhhhh Davis is so nice, I feel good. @ 8:59pm


I need to showerrrr. Errrrrday. It was so windy today that Rosa and I decided to take the bus to class, but apparently tomorrow it’s going to be even colder with even more wind! So crazy!! The weather said “no sun.” hahahah gooodbye daytime! Tomorrow = hopefully a bunch of art history studying with D-Tran because our midterm is freaking THURSDAY… today is Thursday so that means less than one week!!! AHHH! I still can’t believe that I convinced him to switch in this late in the year but I think my overwhelming feelings of guilt have for the most part subsided. The flashcards helped. HAH. Ok I have to shower so bad. I smell, and tuna also smells, and this time goodbye for real. Farewell, interweb!

BIRDS SITTING ON A HIPPO. Ok-- school is actually a little overwhelming. I really like my classes, but I am so small and I can only read so little and intake so much before I become brain-dead. My first midterm is next week and I’m kind of (more like really, really) freaking out. UGHHH why is school so hard and time consumingggggg and reading takes me forever. I’m so scared asdghl;;ewkj’

Also:
- I went to the first football game of the school year and it was surprisingly really fun. IT WAS EPIC. Winning touchdown was a 38 yard pass in the last 2.6 second of the 4th quarter. Like WHATAAWHATT. Yeah. I’ve never been someone with school spirit (or a spirit of any kind…) (hahahah) so it was weird, but I enjoyed myself. And the Aggie pack makes your feet hurt.
- I’ve become a champion apple thief. I took ten apples and two bananas out during one dining hall visit. NOT KIDDING. The two bananas were in my sleeve. HAHAHA. Also, I eat like three apples a day now. SO I CAN’T STOP STEALING, EVER.
- I worked out/went to the Arc for the first time yesterday… and today I am sooooo so sore. !! seriously, it was crazy. I feel really satisfied with myself though, especially because I’m pretty sure that was the first time I’ve ever worked out in years. Or ever. HAHA. But I feel good because I’ve been eating healthily/trying not to overeat, and biking always makes me feel semi-fit, so I feel grrrrreat and faboooo. Yesssss. And WHY AM I BLOGGING WHEN I HAVE HOMEWORK
- I love college/Davis/feeling independent/liberation/being able to be a night owl/yesyesyeys
- Hahahahah I just skype-chatted with someone that literally lives two doors down from me
- Ok
- I have to stop
- This list makes no sense at all
- NO ORGANIZATION
- And btw, I haven’t made my bed in all the time that I’ve been at college. Woooo responsibility

Meeting new people = greatest thing ever. I AM THIS PERSON AND NO ONE ELSE, YA DIGG?

I haven’t updated anything for such a long time… but college is amazing. I am in love with this school and these people. I AM SO HAPPY. Everything is happening exactly how it should. It’s weird because even I’m surprised with the extent of my happiness and my comfort and everything. I even love all my classes, hahaha. I feel like I’ll just be updating less and less, but hey, that means that I’m farrrrrr too busy/sociable to be on my computer everyday single night. HAHA. Wow. Davis = liberation, freedom, green trees, air through my hair when I’m biking down the street, happiness, independence, self-realization, self-discovery, late nights in new places with new people, reconstruction, RELEASE.

I’ve taken some (very few) pictures, but hopefully I’ll take more. I’d really like to update (this, my journal, or basically anything) more but I’ve been losing the need to, which is also kind of weird. Hahaha. Anyways, I am reporting to you as the college me, as the new me who is sitting in Davis WITH SO MUCH FREEDOM AND FEELINGS OF LIBERATION AND HAPPINESS that I can’t even contain it or begin to explain it fully at any extent with mere words. How was it that I even survived before knowing true feelings of relief and self-worth and belonging? How did I live without this for so long? This is where I am supposed to be-- I am so, so happy.
