This past week has been amazing. I've fully moved into my dorm(minus a few posters that are on the way), made friends, and explored the area where I now live. I've been enjoying the company of my floormates and classmates and the amazing view from my room(particularly at sunset). I've found those who say that NYU doesn't have a "community" do not know what they're talking about(what other school has a mascot, "Housie", for residential life? no joke) and that walking 6 blocks to class isn't a bad walk at all(though my opinion may change come winter).

I've broken in my new sneakers, almost broke my foot wearing heels, and finally achieved my first NYC toe blister(I'm quite proud of myself) while exploring the West Village at night with friends. At this point I couldn't be happier with my decision to attend NYU and I look forward to my first classes, which begin tomorrow.

I'll have more to write soon, but for now I'm happy and looking forward to tomorrow. Until then, enjoy the sunset.....
