I miss you.

Just a few days ago, I sat at my desk admiring all of the pretty pictures I had put up when I realized I have no pictures of my family. I then wondered what kind of person puts up prints of friends, cute animals, and scenery around the room, and forgets to bring one of family. I guess I'm just missing home. And it doesn't help that I'm skyping the people I miss. Seeing them does make me happy, but the moment I sign off, I start to miss them again.

Yesterday, a few friends and I went to Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica. That place is truly a shopper's paradise. I can't wait to keep exploring the different parts of LA. Public transportation isn't that bad...

I'm looking to buy a mini-fridge for my dorm room. Yes, I know it's late, but whatever. I think I'm getting the Haier. At 4.0 cubic feet, it's around $140. If you know of a cheaper one, or one that comes in colors other than black, white, and silver, please let me know.

Michelle left a comment on my Facebook that said she and Dennis are coming to LA this weekend! This couple of lines on my wall made my entire day. I asked Alex to come down with them. Ohhh, I'm so excited!

So I know it's bad to complain about roommates, but I just woke up not to my alarm clock, but to a conversation being held by my roommates at 9am. Now I love both of them, but do they really need to speak so loudly in the morning? I personally really enjoy quiet mornings when I'm lost in thought, undisturbed by other voices. And I'm completely disoriented in the morning, so anything I try to say would come out kind of funny anyways... Plus, there is a reason I scheduled my first class for 11am. I'm really not a morning person. That is all.

The USB cord hasn't moved since my last post. Pictures still to come later.


EDIT::

The UC quarter system doesn't allow us to take Columbus Day off. This means two things:
1) Michelle/Dennis/Alex can't visit.
2) For the first time in the history of my education, I have to go to school on Columbus Day.
