College does not suck. In fact, it is the anti-suck.

It does not suck so much that I have been very very lazy about posting here. It basically still feels like summer camp here. I figure that if I do start posting some more, you'll all need a list of my friends to refer to, so I'm going to make you one. Here you go:
  • Lauren M. - From Los Angeles, surfs. Sarcastic, funny, smart. We all pretty much live in her room.
  • Jenny - Lauren M.'s roommate. From Virginia, also smart (OK, I'm gonna have to stop listing that now. They're all smart.). Likes beer and is really really good at getting random guys to get it for her.
  • Ly - From Oregon. Reminds me strongly of Lane on Gilmore Girls. They look a lot alike, and they talk a lot alike. The only thing that's missing is the crazy religious family.
  • Lauren S. - Lives across the hall from Lauren M. From Colorado, is in ROTC. Sweet, happy, always complimenting someone.
  • Max - From Georgia. Total southern boy, not just in accent but in attitude. Recently broke up with his hometown girlfriend. Used to be very non-contact, but Lauren M. and I broke him and now he's very cuddly. Mostly.
  • Eric - Friends with Lauren S., and also from Colorado. Very earnest and little brothery. He likes to lead, to count people, and to declare spontaneously that he loves us all. Has kind of a thing for me which I am ignoring because he has cute friends.
  • The Branner boys - Eric lives in Branner, which is the largest all-frosh house on campus. His friends are the Branner Boys, and they include:
    • DrunkJohn - Totally boring when sober, but when drunk, hilarious.
    • Byron - Cute, but not quite my type. Witty and tall and handles drunkjohn most expertly.
    • Adrian - From TX, looks kind of like Johnny Damon, or Jesus (a little bit, but I find that creepy). I have kind of a little thing for him. But it's getting dangerously internet-based, so I may have to abandon it, unless I can find some way to un-internet it. It's never good to have talked more online than in real life. It makes it creepy.
    • Brandon - Runs track. Blonde. Skinny. Nice.
    • Alex - Made us popcorn.
    • Jaimie - Eric's roommate. Slightly creepy Mexican kid with good hair.
  • Jaynie - My roommate! From Idaho, is an athlete (a HEPtathlete, to be exact). Kicks butt, and will beat up anyone who tries to attack the room with her mad mad javelin skillz.
That's the main list, but there are more, all of whom will be introduced as the story warrants. Until then, good night.
