Aside from my post about the power outage, I’ve yet to tumble about my college experience thus far. I’m already into my fourth week. Damn. So I shall leave one here now.
Every day I have to spend $18 on food. Every damn day. And if I don’t spend it, then the money is lost into the year because it doesn’t roll over. Eighteen dollars is so much. You see, I get $8 from 6 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., and $10.20 from 4:30 p.m. to 11:59 p.m. (I have no idea what happens if I use my card during that 15 minute interval). And the kicker is: I can only use each at one location (i.e., I can’t split up my $8 or $10.20 for more than one transaction at different locations). I mean, I could just swipe my card at the freshman dining hall, eat there and be done with it, but who likes that food anyway. So what do I do? I buy more food than I need at the Commons, grab multiple goodies from Starbucks, or just stock up on cereal, snacks and ice cream from the market. I eat so much, and I can start to feel it. That’s wha—
I miss dancing.
