I hear ya, Manji. I'm the oldest, and I've spent the summer living with my parents. Oh, the horrors I have seen. I am so thankful to be heading back to the dorms in five days. It got a bit worse when my sister came home for a week and a half recently. I fully remember why I was so eager to jump into the dorms. Just five more days...

Shik does indeed live in State College. Manji is my former roommate.

T-minus-three days and counting until I move back into the dorms. I've finished most of my shopping (all I need now are a new set of tennis shoes) and everything but my computer and marching band pictures are packed and ready to go.
There's only one downside I can see right now (besides the actually moving and unpacking that will come on Saturday)... There's a 30 percent chance of rain on Saturday. Terrific.

The only good thing about moving i think, is that sometimes you find something really cool. i found a 1856 coin while moving stuff up to our new cabin at the lake.

In sixteen hours, I will be moving back into the residence halls. Yes, the slow torture is finally over. I'll be on my own again by tomorrow afternoon. However, the moving is going to suck. My little cousin agreed to help me move (for twenty dollars and lunch) about two weeks ago. He's bailed on me now, so I'm going to be very sore by Sunday morning.
Right now, the items that I'm hauling include five boxes, four egg crates, my scanner, my printer, my laptop, a backpack, my laundry basket, a tube container, a tack board, my trumpet case, two small bookshelves, two chairs, a small table, an floor chair made of cushions, a refrigerator, a microwave, my television, a dufflebag, my floor lamp, and two plastic bags.
Anyway, I probably won't be around until Monday. Before I moved out of the halls this past May, the housekeepers threw out my network cord. And knowing the housing department the way I do, the Operations Office (where I can get a new one) will be closed for the weekend. Of course, the Operations Office is on the ground floor of the Towers complex and flooded with 10 feet of water when Allison flooded Houston. So I don't even know if they have any cords right now. I may be out of action for longer in that case.
So, wish me luck tomorrow. There's a 30% chance of rain, and it's going to be a humid scorcher.
