it sounds like waves up here

once i thought there was a skylounge in my dorm building. i took an adventure up to the eighteenth floor. i can say it was an adventure because we had to do some walking. it was just really a tiny little bit of walking. we had to take the elevator up to the seventeenth floor (the highest floor offered) and then take the stairs up to the eighteenth floor.

at the time, it didn't seem like much. it was just a U shaped hallway with a few doors. we were not impressed. we left shortly after arriving.

today i found out that there is an actual lounge on the eighteenth floor. i'm here now. all you have to do is open a door. and that is how it came to be that i am in the skylounge. although, i don't know that anyone else calls it the skylounge.

anyway, yeah, it's really high up and some of the windows are open. the sound of the wind going past reminds me of waves. it's really soothing, aside from the fact that it's quite cold up here.

in other news i have eight days left at school until i can go home. i'm really excited. i'm not feeling very motivated right now, which is just so unfortunate considering finals begin next week.

it's good, though, that today i was feeling very productive. i even decided to forgo seeing improv mafia tonight, although i really wanted to. i finished writing my synthesis paper and i finished my com portfolio.

i also spent like three hours today at the coffeehouse. i forgot how much i really liked that place.

when i'm at home i feel so cramped in, but here i have so many places i can go. i don't have a skylounge at home, or a study lounge or a coffeehouse. which stinks, but there's not much i can do. it's really too bad that it's too cold for me to tolerate outside. maybe in the spring it will be better.

eight days never seemed so long.
