paul's first blog.

I guess the fact that i am in college has not sunken in yet. Maybe its because I'm a 30 minute train ride away from home and can come home whenever i want. I though about this while packing my belongings. "i don't need to bring this now, i can just come back for it whenever i feel like." Yeah, well that was a mistake. I ended up having to go home numerous amounts of times to get that 'one thing' that i forgot. I still don't have my drum set and it's driving me insane!
Obviously, the essentials were needed; Toothbrush, toothpaste, toilet paper, plates, utensils, etc. There were some small things that were forgotten about. I couldn't believe my plastation one was left at home. How could i survive without Tekken 3?
I have lived in Illinois all my life. Although, the suburbs are a lot different. I am still learning how to deal with the homeless. Tonight, on my way back from my friend's dorm, a homeless man approched me. "Hey buddy, would you spare some change?." I told him yes. I reached into my pocket and pulled out about 45 cents. He was very grateful that I helped him out, even though i did not contribute greatly. It's tough walking past the homeless. Other than that another thing new to me is all of the pollution. My seineses have been acting up, but i believe ill get over it!
