It's funny how things just start moving so quickly. I come back after 9 months or something wild like that, and no one misses a beat. It's like I never left at all. Only at Southern, seriously. Things have just been busy, busy, busy. But that's college for you, I suppose.
Hmm, I'm running out of time. Class in a couple minutes! Oh no! I'll have to finish this one later. Ciao

This cold weather is absolutely killer. I was listening to NPR and they specifically mentioned Tennessee in their reports. Jack Spear was telling us listeners that "many farmers are concerned about their tomato plants being destroyed by the devestatingly low numbers on the thermometer"...or something like that. Impressive.
So, its not a wonder to see fellow students bundled up to the tree tops to avoid losing their limbs to frost bite. As I was coming back to the dorm from my history class in Brock, I was considering whether I would make it to the dorm still alive.
Luckily, I did. ;)
So, officially, the first day is done. You can almost feel the anxious anticipation of homework and lab work looming over the heads of both the school and the students. But what am I doing? I should be studying. Peace out.
Glad you made it back alive : )
ReplyDeleteThe number one focus of people here in Maine is survival. I guess its about similar weather as there, except up here it will last through March. Glad you're back into the groove of things at Southern! You should tell more people about your blog, its really good.
thanks ben. i suppose the problem lies in that i dont know anybody else with a blog :/ but its relieving just to write out what im thinking, even if im the only one who sees it :)
