The only difference between today and last week are a few thousand confused looking 18 year olds. If the tables set up for lost freshmen stick around, I am going to ask some one to point me in the direction of Jesus.
I had to take my “first day o' school” picture with my camera phone. Mommy?
I worked three hours (which included sitting in on a staff meeting at the Tweed. the real world looks interesting from here.), went to graphic design II for twenty minutes (joy), loitered in the coffee shop, worked for an hour at the Tweed, had a meeting about my TA-ness, and then had Motion Graphics for a half of an hour. The coffee shop had a story in the UMD Statesman about having more vegetarian options. I looked in the case and everything had ham except for three small, mysterious items labeled “fling.” Apparently fling means cranberry loaf, sprouts, and cheese. Tomorrow I shall try the toss.
I am excited to put graphics into motion, but graphic design II feels silly since I do so much design stuff for work already. And my jobs don't require 80 business card size thumbnails evoking words like “banality.” Maybe that's more corporate.
I will be the teaching assistant for Art Today which has 320 students. Eesh.
Overheard in Duluth:
“Did you hear about xxx? Yeah, his MySpace says something about falling off a ladder.”
-The Coffee Shop
“All Game? It's like a poor man's Game Stop, an overpriced poor man's Game Stop.”
-The Bus
“Try and be on time next time.”
-Professor to me, walking into class at 11:55 (computers in the room), 11:57 (clock on the wall), or 11:59 (my cell phone), depending on which clock you use
“NICE SWEATER!”
-Some dude yelling at me from a car
