Dear Harvard,
Words cannot explain the tiring frustration you have put me through over the past seventy hours. I would like to know where on your God-forsaken campus I am going to live. I would also like to know which lovely people I am going to live (and hopefully share many late night Scrabble and/or other vaguely nerdy board games) with. Today I scared the mailman by demanding, with less than calm demeanor, to see my mail as soon as he turned onto our street. Still, nothing. Yesterday I refreshed the “Harvard 2012” Facebook group around four times per minute to see any magical trace, sign, mark, or indication of who my roommate(s) will be. Still, nothing!
I do not know who to blame. Should I blame you (for choosing not to utilize a wonderful new technology they call “email” and opting instead for a long since antiquated method called “real mail”)?  Should I blame the postal service (for being so damn sluggish)? Should I blame the internet (for allowing me to grumble in public)? Should I blame myself (for the grumbling)?
Vexed And Waiting,
Alisha.
