day 1

sorry I wrote this a couple days ago and am now posting it.

cty blog 1, day 1
I feel so old. my hall has more 12 year olds than 15 and 16 year olds combined, I am the oldest one on my hall and I'm not a fan. I knew nevermoreness would be hard, and I realized that it meant that I'd be the oldest age there, 16, but I never realized how you everyone else would be, this has to be my youngest hall of all my 4 sessions at cty, the average age is probably like 13.5 maybe 14, which, while 14 is the median age, it is only so if one is a 5 year freak, which my hall seems to have plenty of. this is not to say that youngsters should not enjoy cty, they should, but when a nevermore starts to isolate themselves because they seem to have nothing in common with the much younger generation is when I start to get a little frustrated,I feel as though my only option is to barricade myself in my room and text. normally, as was the case last year, I would embrace the newcomers
and teach them all the wonders and traditions of cty but I'm burned out, I'm new to this site, I don't know how to get to the dining hall or the bookstore but due to all of my past cty experiences I know how I should feel at cty, happy, and I have yet to experience that emotion this session, I hope it gets better, I really do.
