It was a nice break while it lasted. It was almost strange to be home and not have to run anywhere and not have piles of homework to go through. In fact, it was even stranger making dinner for my family every night, but I am sure they appreciated it.
Hopefully they did not get too used to those home cooked meals because today was move in day for the B&B Program at Purchase College! For the next five weeks, I will be sharing a dorm room in a small apartment in beautiful Purchase, New York. Another three credits, another lesson learned and I'll be home before July 4th to enjoy the rest of the summer.
Sometimes I feel too old for the crap! I have to share a bathroom and kitchen with people as old as The Boy, and I already know what kind of messes he can make. But so far, roommates seem nice and neat. We'll see how it goes. It's a three bedroom apartment, but we are only using two and it's pretty beat up from the college students who lived here the past semester. The walls are all messed up and it could all use a good painting, but this place is not permanent. It's only a temporary resting spot for the education that will be permanent. My class is a mix of Psychology and Humanities. We'll have class in the morning and the afternoon free for independent study and research for our final projects, which we will be presenting on July 3. A piece of cake!

Here is my temporary home for the next few weeks. As you can see, I tried to make is a comfortable as possible.
Since this program is not as intense as Vassar was last summer (two classes verus one class), I plan on going home at least one night during the week and every weekend, so maybe my family will still get those home cooked meals! Let's hope they will making them for me!
