Housing

When are those housing people going to send out the e-mail they promised last week? It figures greatly into my TM arrangements.

Still haven't heard from the OC Register contact. Still haven't turned in my petition to graduate(!). Still don't know much about the paper. Still haven't been called by the hometown paper for the promised interview.

Still don't have a subletter. One turned us down today, so my hopes are pinned on the other one who visited and on a guy from France who won't arrive until mid-April.

And people wonder why I don't like living off-campus.

Here's another point on that note: I'm much more likely to buy pricey or nonbasic food on a meal plan than when I can buy whatever I want. I would never buy something I like that's small but costs about $5, such as that muffaletta spread they have at the Norris C-Store, at the grocery store. Instead, I buy way too much rice and pasta and then get sick of what I have to eat and go out to a restaurant. I need to learn how to budget food luxuries. But it's harder to do when you haven't already spent the money.
