My apartment mates and I SCOURED the apartment today. Everything smells like cleaning supplies now. It's great. Our kitchen is ant-free, our bathroom is hair-free and rust-free, and our living room is paper-free and leaf-free. My sister bought me a bathmat, and I must say it feels damn good to shower without flipflops. I cannot reiterate enough that I'M SO HAPPY OUR APARTMENT IS CLEAN. Now I wonder how long it's going to stay that way.

My ten-day fall break is over. School starts tomorrow. Chem test on Friday. I'm starting kickboxing classes on Sunday. Exciting, yeah?

I think what I like the most about Haverford, is the people. Last night my friend and I stayed up till 4am just talking. And after I went to bed he stayed up for another three hours talking to my roommate. haha. I love it here. There's so much you learn outside the classroom. Yeah, in the classroom you're learning about a specific subject and you're gaining knowledge...but it's the talks outside the classroom that you have with friends that are really meaningful and that stick with you. It's what I like the most about college life.
