Song you should pretend to be listening to:
If You Got The Money - Jamie T
So it's been a pretty good first week:
- I managed to pack everything but the essentials. Being without keys is actually a lot cooler than you'd think. It'd be even mega cooler if someone played the Mission Impossible song while you try sneaking into the dining hall, just think about that. (P.S.

- Ebony. Ebony? Ebony! It's impossible.
- From now on, I'm referring to playing the piano as "tickling the ivories."
- Because I want to and because it isn't lame.
- Second thoughts about lacrosse.
- How does Ryan break up with Sadie??
