The Details

In recent events I have received complaints regarding the length and content of my blog posts. According to readers the daily posts are too short and vague. So let me humor them and allow myself to dive into the juicy meat of my life in a hole. For starter, the room. Approximately 14x8 square feet in area and the furniture is pink...well purple...well salmon. This room once belonged to one individual and now occupies 2 people, me being one of them. The one window looks out upon a beautiful brick wall and a clothes line...covered in clothes. My bed however is not next to the window, however because the room is so small, it is not hard to see out. My roommate's bed is about two feet away from mine. This distance makes a very small walkway between beds and often causes traffic jams. I'm not complaining because I love Hawaii, well most of it. It is almost impossible for us to be up and getting ready at the same time due to the lack of, once again, space. I try to spend as little time in my room as possible. My roommate on the other hand spends most of her time in here. I don't know how she stands it. Outside of the room and down the hall is what could pass as a bathroom. It it dirty and also salmon colored. Within our sacred salmon unit (that's the four bedrooms and bathroom in 108) reside many species of bugs. Mainly ants, spiders and cockroaches. They are not my friends and we avoid each other. I never would have thought that I would live in a hole with six and eight-legged creatures, but life is full of surprises. In all honesty, this can be very uncomfortable. It's dirty and dark and old. I dream of a time when I had my own room. I think of nice clean carpets and ant-less bathrooms. What can do but enjoy it. No use in complaining. The spiders won't listen.
Service:Picked up some trash on campus. Never realized shy people would want to trash this beautiful place.
