I have settled in at Smith College and classes start tomorrow.

Sometimes I find myself wondering what I have gotten myself into.

I retaliate with the thought that perhaps this is where I am suppose to be, perhaps this will be good for me.

I couldn't imagine being in any other house here at Smith.

I can imagine being at other colleges.

I wonder if any of them are really different.

I didn't want a party college. I'm at one. Time will tell how often. Tonight is Convocation, I suppose I can let it slide.

I believe in close-toed shoes, skirts below the knees, and never would have imagined myself only wearing a scarf for a top and a short skirt.

It was my choice. I have always been at opposition to myself.

I find I don't know where I'll be.

Smith College. A world in its own. A bubble, blocking out the hostility of society.

Is it really a good idea to do that?

I shall save my final opinion to the end of this year.

When I first arrived, it was different then I thought it would be. Different, but better.

I am no longer sure if it is better. I am no longer sure that I am not lowering my standards to be here.

I almost feel that Smith lies in their presentation of their college.

Time will tell.

Cheers.
