   College life sucks for me right now and I think it's all my fault. 

I'm originally from Atlanta and used to being able to access anything at almost anytime. I love Atlanta mainly because I am an artist and my city is so...artsy. Any at the suggestion of my mother I came her for school. I would have gone to Boston or stayed at home but to get into art school you have to be able to draw, which is silly in itself because most students don't come to draw. Anyway I get out here and I like the atmosphere of the school but not the students. 

When I arrived my roommates mother told me that she was both nasty and has seizures, but that the seizures wouldn't occur that often. Well she lied within the first two weeks she had 8 seizures. I had to live with this for 3 months until the moved her out last week. I've never been happier...in my room.

Outside of my room, most of the students are racist and to prude to admit it. Most of the lesbians around don't like me because I don't fit stereotypes. The white girls don't like me because I don't think they're jokes about me brushing fuzz are funny. I can't stand them during the week but on the weekend I grin and bare it until I'm super drunk. They get me drunk just because. 

The guys for the most part are cool expect one who has a crush on me. I told him from the jump what the deal was yet he thinks it's cool to hit on me. The only reason I deal with him is because he get's me into parties and his roommate gets me drunk. The other guys he hangs with are cool and accept that I don't like guys.

My whole point is that I'm tired of having to deal with the awful to get to the decent. I know that my friends were great in Atlanta but at least they respected me. I don't feel respected out here and it's making me sick. I've never been this physically sick so often. Anyway I'm tryna keep my head and grades up, gotta transfer right. I just hope I don't have to suffer through two-years.
