jon_chaissonWoke up from an odd dream this morning with my first thought being "this should TOTALLY be a manga."
It involved a girls' dormitory at a Christian college, centering around one girl who's like a mentor for younger girls at the dorm. She lives in a dorm that's seven stories high, and each floor somehow represents (in theory and in real life, as most silly mangas do) a level of hell and/or heaven. The lead lives on floor 7, Heaven, which is cool except that inexplicably there's a mom & pop store (in New England-speak, this store would be a 'packie', as yes, it did have beer and other liquor) at the end of one of the hallways. The packie being there through the maxim "Heaven is what you make it" (the overall theme of the story), and apparently having a packie close at hand was some student's idea of ideal heaven. :p
I can only wonder what kind of shojo manga silliness would unfold in this setting...
[Note to self: this could easily play out as a YA novel and/or series...still, I totally see it as a manga...]
