My Dorm!!! *Pics*

[Miss Z]

Yeah, that was what I meant. Hehe, the English language lost in translation!

Glad that the food is good! I love cooking but after I've had a few hard days studying I can quite easily see myself dropping the cookbooks for beans on toast and as many free drinks as I can scrounge in the bars. I guess catered would always be easier, haha.

They should give you a meal plan, pfft. But everything I have is paid for, so I guess that's why it was easy for me to get one. I bet your tuition is probably a lot higher than mine too since you're going to an awesome University in London haha.

Maybe you'll find someone to cook for you?

I dunno how happy the boyfriend would be on that one.

That's horrible that your food was awful though, Karen. They could have at least gave you some decent nutrition!

It was truly bad, I lived at one college as the college I went to (Mass Art) didn't yet have dorms, so they made agreements with two other colleges, Emerson and Emmanual. I lived at Emmanual, which had a closer campus to Mass Art, and the first semester particularly had dreadful food. Everything was shredded, breaded and fried, so you could only tell by the shape weather it was beef (round), chicken (rectangular), pork (pork chop shaped) or fish (square), but my saving grace was the salad bar - at least there were fresh vegetables there! After that semester, so many people complained that they changed the food service company, I think people were really getting sick.

Thankfully, there was a regular supermarket pretty close, and it was open 24 hours, so we always had that option. Being in Boston, there's always some possibility for food, if you have any money!

UT is so big, sounds like you have plenty of good choices.

We look forward to pictures of the campus when you have a chance!

That sounds so disgusting haha. I'm glad we have good food here . I love going to the grocery store on campus (Which it's also really close to my dorm) but it's so expensive that I'm kind of afraid to buy anything .

I'm excited to get out and take some pictures, hehe. We have so many pretty buildings and historic-ness! I'll get out and take some as soon as I can ^_^!

Bri, I remember your FB posts and the high marks you scored on tests - you'll do great! It seems that first year in EVERY university/college the workload is especially heavy - maybe to weed out the ones who don't really want to move ahead?

But I know you will be brilliant! Zara, same thing. Looking forward to photos and reports on life and on the FOOD!

And thank you, I'm going to try and hopefully succeed !

As you speak it sounds like you're having quite a lot of fun in college. Meaning you're settling in the college earlier than anybody does.

Everybody's said it's a big transition, but I mean really, you move on your own, you go to classes, you study, you have a little fun. It's not that big of a deal. Maybe nothing has happened to me yet or I haven't got to the stressed out point yet. I probably shouldn't be saying I don't think it's a big deal because I'm pretty sure it will be as soon as I type this. :P So I take all of that back hahaha.
