The Best Kind of Start

I met with five of my six future housemates this morning at Natural Start for coffee and chats this morning, and if the meeting was any kind of harbringer of things to come (which it was), I am excited beyond reason to live in that house next year.  All of the girls are awesome, and Marisa is the only one who I haven't known (and liked) for three years.  Six of us are in honors, and we probably all have the least abrasive personalities at Gonzaga.  I don't know.  Maybe that's a poor way to explain it.  More accurately, I feel uncomfortable and competitive around most people, but I feel utterly at ease around my housemates. 

We all have similar views of the best approach to maintaining house peace, keeping things clean, and shopping for housewares at Value Village.  I'm pretty sure that we all like the environment.  We all drink some, but not too much.  It's the most moderate group of girls that I can imagine.  And we all have similar senses of humor--not exactly the same, but pretty much the same degree.  Which is important.

I think next year might be the first year at college where I really feel at home in the place where I live.  The rent is a little higher, but I'm going to be enjoying every dollar of it.  I kind of wish that I were staying for the summer.

Eeee.

Certain boys that I know should be thrilled.
