So, here it goes. My last blog ever...well atleast being a MC Choctaw. Next semester I'll be back home in Louisiana and I couldn't be happier! In fact, this time next week I'll be back home in Louisiana. It's been a fun, well bearable, time here at MC. I wouldn't stretch so far to say fun because I haven't exactly enjoyed my time here. I guess this just goes to show how different people are. Some people knew right off the bat that this place was for them, but I never felt that way. I was very excited about coming to college and living on my own. Well after a couple weeks that was out my system. I was excited about living on my own with no rules from my parents, but I actually found MC to be worse.
Eleven o'clock on a Saturday night, really? That's as late as my friends can stay? I'm sorry, am I a freshman in college or high school? I understand that there have to be rules and there's danger in having guys walking around in girls dorms, but even when they're "legally" allowed in the rooms the rules are ridiculous. You can't sit on the bed with them, close the door, and heaven forbid you take your feet off the ground. I don't mind abiding by rules, but here I feel like I'm treated like a child. I found it very degrading to have a girl my age checking on me and making sure that I'm not doing something wrong.
This isn't the reason I'm leaving, but I do not feel like this place is a good environment to grow and mature in - mostly because you're not given the opportunity to. Of course you can grow in some ways - getting up and going to class, studying, but some of the most important aspects of growing up are left out. I didn't mean to rag on MC on my last blog, but that's just where it ended up once I started typing.

I will miss you greatly! I hope you will come back and visit us.
Some of the rules here I can understand like no alcohol in the dorms and maybe even leaving the door open on open dorm nights. But the thing that I dont understand about open dorm nights is why can we only have them three times a week. What exactly does that accomplish. Where else is there to go and just hang out in Clinton?
I'm sorry that you don't like it here all that much. Mostly, I have liked it here. There's been a few days where I've been really depressed, but it's for other reasons. I hope you have a great time back home. By the way, the book version of A Clockwork Orange is better than the movie, which is still good (it was made by Stanley Kubrick after all). It ends on a happier note with Alex becoming a good person. Read wikipedia if you want more details.
LA is fun place and I love New Orleans! I hope you will enjoy coming back to LA
Dorm rules are wack.
