Sunday, Sunday

I am so tired but happy about the way the past week turned out. I’m slowly getting settled into my new place and have already had a few nights on the town with friends to celebrate my return to NW.

Last night, I checked out the Rock and Roll Hotel. It was definitely not what I imagined (i.e., it's not a hotel) but it was a lot of fun—despite the dj’s amateur song transitions.

The Fourth was spectacular. My job really provides perks and it was great to participate in the celebration of our country in the Capitol.

There are a few things that I’ll need to adjust to in my new place. Of course, I’ll have to get used to having a place that is inhabited by 5 other people. But mostly, after 5 years of being eco and budget conscious, I’ll have to get used to having air conditioning and cable. I hope I don’t get too spoiled before PC—as it know that I will most likely be sent to a tropical place to live in a small hut with no ventilation and definitely no tv or cable.

Indeed, my thoughts are fragmented right now. Mainly, I just wanted post something after the holiday hiatus. Tomorrow my friend from school leaves (my mother already returned home) and I can finally spend quality time getting to know my roomies and neighborhood and unpacking more of my things.
