"Looondon bridge did fall down, my fair lady nearly drowned. What is the reason to lock her up, when already she had such rotten luck. Bracelets of silver adorn my wriiists. Candy kisses from sugar lips. Candy kisses me, kisses me." The words to Gutter Glitter sang a hint too loudly and yet still under her breath, her ipod turned a hint too loud, the buds hidden by her hair. She must have looked a little on the insane side, but then, it's a college campus, there are at least four other students here and there doing something very similar.
She had decided to do a tour of the campus now when it was still open for summer semester but on her own without the tour guides who lead one around by the nose. She wanted to get a feel for where the buildings were, how much time she needed to get from class to class and how long it would take her to get from student housing to her first class. Student housing, it's a great word, really. She had arranged to live in one of the dormitories like most other freshmen but one of her mom's friends on the board had pulled a few strings and she had gotten one of the student apartments on the edge of campus. That was nice, but a part of her wanted the experience.
Her plan was to tour the campus, then maybe head to the edge of it to get a cup of coffee and do a bit of shopping. The campus was lovely, green and tree-lined, not at all like the desert countries she had made home for so many years of her life.
