Oh nerds where are you

It’s 1 in the morning. Right now I’m back in my suite, chilling with Wasi and Mitch. We’re blasting mostly indie music/jazz (which is a refreshing break from the techno house the suite usually blasts) while we crack jokes about random shit and I draw up sketches for a big musical endeavor. My roommate just got back after being mia for the past 24 hours (trolol league of legends), and the rest of my suitemates are at a frat party/multiple frat parties. So far, I’m enjoying this a lot. More than yesterday’s frat party or anything else I’ve done in college so far for that matter. Except for some music stuff maybe.

I’m fairly certain this is because I’m so used to a life with nerds. Fucking adorable bitchass nerds, god I miss them. I didn’t fully realize how much Stuy kids were out of the norm until college but, damn we were losers. And we fucking loved it (and still do). We’re people who learn things for the sake of intellectual pursuit, hang out with friends all the time and do absolutely nothing, and crack sex jokes based on math formulas. And there’s a constant atmosphere of relaxed geekiness: how nothing you could say could ever be too outlandish or weird, and there’s no peer pressure for anything. 

Don’t get me wrong, Bing is filled with smart people. It’s no Columbia, but the people here are intelligent and witty and can hold a conversation. But alas, they aren’t nerds. Or at least the kind that I’m used to. And

Ehh. Good news, I was gonna make this longer but I’m pretty tired right now, so I think i’ll go to bed. 

I can’t sleep

The most logical idea, of course, is to go on tumblr and gripe about it. Or not gripe, but I feel like I should probably fill up as much space as possible since all I have is that one tiny entry post. My original intent was to establish at least as passable sleep cycle so that I can actually concentrate with my work and music instead of literally blanking out every 20 seconds, but nahh, who needs a circadian rhythm in college?

Speaking of which, I was in the city this morning and yesterday. I miss the city, Bing just doesn’t have the putrid stench and crazy hobos and rampant capitalism i’m so accustomed to. I can’t even find a Starbucks or Chase bank, which is heartbreaking. I’m really starting to love the community here though. Even though my suite can hardly stay dry for 12 hours, the people here are pretty great, and thankfully wit and sarcasm aren’t lost on them. We play music for them a lot (we being me and Gabe), and tomorrow I’m going to put up a song request sheet, since they request a lot of stuff (and surprisingly I know a lot of them. The General, Snow, Hysteria, and a bunch of acoustic staples). Aside from the inevitable onslaught of classwork, hopefully things will only look up.

And now I feel like i’ve adequately stared at a computer monitor long enough to fall asleep. Yay for no school tomorrow

First post, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Well it’s not really my first post, that honor goes to this massive essay length rant that I made while in China. Now that all my linguistic isolation rage is gone, I figure it’d be better to start my tumblr existence off with something less frustrated and angry. Which would be this. Thankfully to the rest of the universe, it’s only a paragraph and an odd sentence long. But now I can go on to make bigger, angrier, more pretentious posts, using this is a gateway post.

So I guess welcome to college, guys
