Uncovered

Seen and Unseen

My bed in Loeb Residence Hall is right next to this huge window. My first night at New York was a little uneasy; I kept being startled whenever I turned to this side and saw this hole on my wall as if it would engulf me. I thought my bed was slanted to that side, trying to throw me out of the window. Yes, it was unsettling, so it was amazing when I opened my eyes. Instead of my blanket, I was wearing sunlight.

Now I am used to both sensations, that of looking out a huge window at night and that of sun waking me up, but I still remember the first day.

What holds the shatter



Individuality



Beyond

This is just a photo of a place going under a renovation, but the shadow and the light together makes me wonder what is beyond the door.

Laundry

I was very lucky in my freshman year, because I lived in Whitman, the newest residential college at Princeton, and my room was right next to a water fountain, a laundry room, a bathroom, and an elevator. And here, not only do I need to go down to the basement to do laundry, I also have to pay for it--which I heard is normal in NY. Argh.
