Story Time

So yesterday I get out of the pharmacy and I've got an hour before class so I head for the Bernhard Center, where I have lunch with Shruti every Thursday. I've got my headphones on and I'm jammin' but mostly just feeling really hateful and gross about the f'ing snow that the sky's been threatening to shit out lately. In general, I'm sick of winter, cold, and wind. Bring it on Spring, I'm ready.

Anyway, I get past Sangren and these crazy mofos running the opposite way almost plow me over. They were dressed up and had some sort of name tags on declaring they were from "Such and Such High School." Well that explains it. I'm not dissing high school students, but when I was in high school I ran when I was late to something too. I don't do that anymore, no siree. Nope, in college we walk briskly. Even if we're late we just walk a little bit faster. Heck, even if I'm late to work and those church bells are ringing in eight o'clock I don't run. Pfft.

I forgot all about these kids by the time I got to the Bernhard Center approximately 20 seconds later, but I remembered them in a hurry. I get downstairs to the fast food places and there's about 183,786,374 of those same crazy mofos swarming the place up! Suddenly I'm in high school all over again, pushing my way through the halls of E. A. Johnson High School, hurrying to my next class. I'm practically at a standstill, among sweating pubescent bodies and at a complete loss for words. I feel as if my world is being invaded by aliens--aliens who are all ordering whole pizzas instead of just one slice at a time, which means it'll take me forty-five minutes to get my Italian Cheese Bread, if I'm lucky.

Poor Shruti was practically hiding behind her BioChem book when I got to the table. I ended up waiting in line for thirty minutes, all while being bombarded with odd questions like, "Are all the chicks hot here?" and "Do you just party if you're not in class?" We even had to sit at a table with a few of them. *shudder*

In other news, I bought an aquarium that had a fancy filter and everything last week, and the damn thing broke, made the water hotter than hell, boiled my fish, and today I got my money back and bought the Shield Season 1 instead. Mike and I went to a piano recital the other night, and that was a lot of fun. I love pianos and he and I don't get to do stuff like that often.

I'm so ready for the weekend. Big plans, and not a lot of homework. Woots.
