<p>...would you go stir crazy if you love the hustle and bustle of a city?</p>
<p>If you love the city Kenyon is not for you, unless you have spent time somewhere peaceful and enjoyed it.</p>
<p>Quirky, quintessential and first-rate</p>
<p>I am from one of the densest places on Earth and I wasn’t used to Kenyon’s rural environment initially. But I soon learned to appreciate my time at Kenyon and feel that such an environment provides space for personal introspection and allows you to ponder about life’s metaphysical questions. But I struggled while at Kenyon to keep myself updated about the outside world. The New York Times helps a lot in that aspect.</p>
<p>I had no problem keeping up with the world…try using what is known as “The Internet”…I hear that you can get news from it :-P</p>
<p>Well, what I was referring to is the fact that at Kenyon, we are in some sort of a bubble. Everything is provided for and it is only in the summer that I went grocery shopping that I realized how much more expensive food has been compared to before.</p>
<p>I do agree on that point…but sometimes it is nice not to know everything that is happening.</p>
<p>Kenyon is quirky, all about tradition, and community.</p>
<p>And honestly, adjusting here isn’t that difficult. There’s people from all walks of life in this tiny little town. I’m from one of the largest metropolitan cities in Texas and I have friends from LA to NYC to Miami and even Zimbabwe, New Zealand, and Hong Kong. Everyone’s adjusting well for the most part and it’s a good adjustment. It’s just one that you have to be willing to do. Plus, living here is a hell of a lot cheaper than being in the city.</p>
