Well, now that I've finished breaking everything that came half broken in my room I can finally say that I'm happy with the way it looks. After Sarah left this afternoon I went and cut a hole in my broken closet ceiling (with a sharp knife, thanks to Jason!) so that my curtain could actually hang. Eh...velcro isn't a really good curtain hanging idea, but it's what they gave me, and it's really all I can do with what I've got. Good enough - it's my best effort.

My roomie, Kyle, is back from from his trip home. We've talked a little bit, bragged over pictures of our girlfriends, played a couple games of pool in the student center, and all around gotten pretty comfortable - all in one evening. He kinda reminds me of a quiet Don Gourley, just much less mischevious. I think we'll manage.

Niftium took a hit last night. :-( I hung it from the ceiling just above my bookcase (well, one of them), came back from the ghost stories and found it lying in a few pieces on the ground. I never figured out what snapped, whether it was niftium itself (highly unlikely, as it's nearly indestructable) or the fishing line that it was tied up with (also questionable when you consider all of the knots and stuff that I used). It's gonna take some fixing...I'll havta bring it home the first chance I get...

I don't know if anyone else has had a problem, but I haven't been able to read any of my comments since I first posted my last blog, so if you're wondering why I haven't answered, that's why. Email - something else that I've had a problem with here. I don't know what's up with the school's email system, but we can't get into it at all yet. So use this if you need to get ahold of me.
