Alice Lloyd is so modern, but what will it look like in 20
years? Will it resemble the hallowed halls of Mary Markley, a dormitory now
renowned for its cockroaches?
The chairs in Lloyd are so modern and plush. For someone
fighting off sickness, it is the perfect place to sit and ponder, waiting for
their symptoms to reside. I wonder when I will ever get over this cold. I have
had it now for three weeks and want to aggressively punch myself in the face
every time I get up. This is irritating for so many reasons: I want to immerse
myself in college life and my school work, but all I want to do is go sleep in
my childhood bed and have my mom bring me soup. Is that bad? I think I might go
home this weekend and take a visit to the doctor.
But the chairs… they are so soft. I could easily fall asleep
in any of these and never get up. It is such a wonderful thing being able to
sleep in Alice Lloyd, where they have air conditioning and the rooms aren’t the
size of a holding cell.
The people who walk in and out of the main entrance are so
interesting. I have never seen some of these people and I have now lived here
for a month. I wonder how many people I will know in a year after being here.
If we’re being honest here, I don’t know if I love the
modern look of Alice Lloyd. Sometimes it seems almost too modern and I feel
like a dorm needs to be a little rustic. Not that I’m complaining, I shouldn’t.
I know so many kids who would cut their right arm off to be in here. Why,
specifically, the right arm? Why not the left arm? What’s so important about
the right?
How many people who are in this dorm are not in LHSP? I see
soccer players occasionally, but it’s hard to discern who is actually a member
of the program and who is not.
I have seen six alumni or donors walk through here uttering,
“it’s amazing!” “amazing!” “Is this really a dorm?” “back in my day you never
would’ve seen a dorm this nice.”
These tours must be a regular occurrence during the day and
I must just not be around to see them. I should hang out in the lobby more
often.
Oh boy.
This is the most random compilation of sentences I have ever
written.
