I still have 8 weeks to go before I hop on an airplane to lands afar, but before I leave I think I'm going to ease my way back into blogging by just putting random thoughts in here.
-The cold is finally setting in around campus, making the once peaceful morning walk across the 10th avenue bridge to class a now dreadful, grey, constant nose-dripping experience. When Jax and I are feeling lazy, we'll walk halfway to the Knoll area and hop on the Campus Connector the remainder of the way. Sadly, I try to avoid this because of two things:
1. People that board the bus at Sanford (2 blocks away from my house) and get off in the Knoll area (4 blocks away from my house). They clog up the bus, make it crowded and stinky, and make the whole process take a whole lot longer than it should be.
2. Muscular, able-bodied males sitting in the seats on the bus and staring at all of the women and older folks standing. Seriously, who raised you?! Now mind you, there are justified circumstances sometimes, and it's not that I feel women should always deserve/get a seat before men, but I feel like if I ever had a son they would know to at least offer it. Scratch that, they would WANT to offer it. There are still some things to be said for traditionalism in this world.
-I'm studying for my THIRD midterm in one of my global studies courses. What does this say to me rather than "grrrr"? Professors have lost the sense of what a "midterm" is supposed to mean. What do they think would happen if every instructor I had this semester happened to do that? Nothing good, I'll tell you that much.
-8 weeks and 2 days until I depart for Europe :)
