Move In

September 1st approaching feels sweeter when it doesn’t also involve moving into a dorm room, doesn’t involve buy a Target store brand bath mat, doesn’t involve smiling at people you don’t know or sitting with ones you do know but aren’t sure you like, doesn’t involve syllabi or meal card scanning or internal outfit debates.

I’m sure others loved college, and I did, too. But there is nothing like having wood hangers, a bed larger than a twin, a kitchen of one’s own, and a life in which you wonder less about what’s to become of you and more about what you’re doing right now.
