magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

we were assigned studio spaces today. last year everyone wanted the upstairs studios. this year everyone wanted to downstairs studios. or almost. seniors got first pick so i got the upstairs studio that i wanted.

i made indian food for dinner. potato and chickpea curry. it's the first time that i've felt full since i've been here. since a few days before i left. i guess i am going to have to do a lot of cooking for myself.

but even having eaten, and feeling a little better about that, i'm still terribly scared of this whole trip. of talking to people. of fitting in. of being so far away. it's like starting at a new school all over again. but more so.
