I want to try to blog everyday again, like I did at the beginning of the school year.

I'm very frustrated over my living arrangements for next year.

I don't want to live in Busey-Evans again next year. I've lived here for a year already and I pretty much don't know anybody but my own roommate. I know that a lot of this is my own fault, but I think it'll be easier for me to meet people if I can live in Allen . The idea behind this place is that they're trying to create the feeling of a liberal arts college within the larger University. They have a really strong sense of community there. I really want that.

But I didn't decide that I wanted to move there until after the deadline for that sort of thing had passed, and now I'm wrangling with the Housing Dept. to get them to consider my application for this thing. I had been waiting for the past two months for housing to get back to me, only to discover that they gave me bad information and if I had talked to someone else instead of waiting for them I might have had a much better chance of getting in.

Oh, beurocracy.

I'm hopeful, though. I've finally gotten in touch with the head honcho at Allen and while he doesn't sound too excited about accepting a late application, I think he might do it anyway.

We'll see.
