bittersweet indeed!

so a lot of my residents have moved in. i've met some really great ones. and then there are some that are...well...

let's just say they will be a challenge to interact with.

i'm finding it really hard how to set up borders between myself and my residents. like, i want to be their friend. but at the same time, they can't talk to me about any drinking they do in the dorm. i must document everything that i see. and they have to do the unnatural thing and monitor their language. i hate doing that. it reminds me of beating around the bush about homosexuality.

oh well, i should go to sleep. haven't goten much of that lately.

Dorm picture funny.

I remember when I was studying Latin at the Vatican back in 2000-- the dorm I was staying in had a policy of no guests in your room overnight [ahem]. Funny thing was, the penalty if you got caught was 40,000 lira (about $20). Can $20 really dissaude a person from having sex? I think not. That's why they invented the whole mortal-sin crap.
