Little Quickie

Maybe I shouldn't put that much effort on trying to post up pictures about my trip. I had been making several attempts to upload those photos, but frustrating  enough, Blogger would not let me save it. So, I decided to push that behind and talk more about my recent life.

I hadn't had much time to concentrate on this blog, as I felt that it wasn't a necessity in my life, especially this current life. Plus, the inefficiency of Blogger slowly burned away my desire and interest to share more. And I felt kind of pointless to be just posting up pictures (which are already on my Facebook) without elaborating. Previously, I did have this intention, as I felt that most of my pictures that I think is worthy to share were neglected, and I thought they deserve more attention here. But then I got lazy....as you might have expected. Haha.

Alright. Drop the boring sessions. Here comes a new story. My life, here in Columbia, Missouri.

My first day (which is the 10th, I do not consider the night of 9th as my first day) in Columbia was unexpectedly disappointing. It was unavoidable anyway. I happen to be a Journalism major, I happened to be in New York, one of the world's busiest cities for almost a week. And the next thing I know, I am in a deserted little city, or at least Wikipedia calls it a city. Roads were wide and broad, lands were wide and broad, houses were big and broad. And relatively few pedestrians. Advisors and student volunteers told me that it is normal for Columbia to be bare when the students are not back for the semester yet. I shrugged in response.

But it definitely got better. In no time students filled up the empty streets. Shuttle service started functioning. And I went to attend classes. I was starting to feel the pressure anyway. It's the first time in my life that I think my English really sucks. Sobs.

Basically I would just stay in my room and hang onto the computer, iPad or my books (undoubtedly, books are the least touched) and be anti-social. I know it is not good and I should step out and socialize with my housemates, but ... Yer.

Anyway I am planning to move out or get a car. Or move out and still get a car. Hehe. Because practically, you cannot live in Columbia without having a car. PLUS, I need to travel everywhere for the sake of news collecting. Laugh out loud. Alright, ciao!
