welcome back to class.

I remember my move-in day first year. It was hot, humid, sticky, disgusting. We had to carry large amounts of my stuff up a few flights of stairs and I unpacked in an un-air-conditioned room. It was horrible.

I don't know about anywhere else, but the weather in VA the past week or so has been downright chilly. Move-in day was cloudy-ish and only about 80F. Still humid, but it could be, and has been, a lot worse.

The temperatures kept dropping. Well, that's a lie, Monday was still hot and humid out, but it's rained every day since, with a high of about 70F. It's been nice, I've been able to break out my chocolate wellies and splash through the puddles without consequence, but I've also gotten a little bit soaked. It's cold, sitting in classrooms with the AC on high while my clothes dry out.

On the plus side, I find it a lot easier to focus on the lecturer when it's not sunny and wonderful out. The fake-fall weather has me tricked into studying, I'm more willing to make that transition than I would be if I felt like it was still summer.
-Also it's a lot like being in Scotland, this constant grayness. Only it didn't rain quite so persistently, it was more of a steady drizzle or intermittent downpour, not a 72-hour Rain Fest.
