I'm moving into residence tomorrow. I wound up messaging them to find out which day was move-in day, not realizing that that information was in my acceptance package, or that I had received an acceptance package. When I'd learned that I was supposed to have received one, I assumed that I'd failed to get one because I was someone who had been waitlisted, and it wasn't in my roommate notification, as it was supposed to be. Turns out, my "Acceptance package" was inside that group of papers I had to fill out, which was included in the notification they sent when they asked if I wanted a spot to begin with.
I still don't know what my room number is. I asked, and they said that I will only learn on the day that I move in. They kind of said it like they were advertising it as part of the excitement. Yeah, I'm not perceiving that as a positive thing.
I contacted the driver that brought me to orientation. She's actually not sketchy at all. She's in an actual business, and I only thought she was sketchy because I'd... kind of found her through a sketchy method.
She said that she could pick me up at 9:00 AM or 5:30 PM. I thought that I'd do 5:30 because... Well, first day of residence is O-day, and there's going to be celebratory events. Honestly, I've had enough anxiety that I'll just want to settle in and avoid the obligation of partying all day. Oh, I am so old.
But I contacted them and they said that the moving in times take place between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, so it looks like I'm going to have to get up bright and early, grit my teeth, go in and party. Apparently there's going to be a bouncy castle constructed for adult use...
I don't really know what their move-in format is going to be like, but I keep reminding myself that I know my survival skills are better than most people's my age, and a lot of these guys won't even have had time to hone their survival capacity. If they can do it, I can do it. It doesn't matter if there's someone better than me. If I can beat the lowest common denominator of people just graduated from high school, I'm solid.
