I miss...

Grrrr....

So today the kids were back. In my way. I walked a little further and there were even more kids. Like 20 or 30 from a Montessori school. I wasn't irritated by them though because they were actually there for a purpose. They were assisting with the freshly planted vegetable and flower garden. Also, there were two dads with babies strapped to them in conversation who managed to move when I came along. Quite impressive. Maybe I should get them to talk to the other obnoxious moms.

However, the real annoyance came when I got out of class. We got out almost an hour early which was pretty exciting. I was walking past the gym and one of the many cheerleading squads was exiting presumably for lunch. They were chanting. They were chanting this:

Annoying Girl #1: "My name is (insert any cheerleader name, Brittany, Ashley, Amber, etc) and you know what I got?"

Annoying Squad: "What do you got?"

Annoying Girl #1: "I got a squad that I know is hot."

Annoying Squad: "How hot is hot?"

Yeah, that was it. The first time I didn't mind so much. But then they just kept repeating it with different girls leading. Then they followed me into the very echoy tunnel. After about the fifth time I can't explain to you how difficult it was to not turn around and scream, "Shut the f#!$ up!!!" I'm not enjoying summer school.

Boooo

So, I don't mean to be insensitive, but I'm really upset about Dad's luggage. But not in the nice way. I spent like between 50-60 hours on customized presents for you guys and I'll be really upset if they got lost. On the other hand, if they didn't get lost then all his clothes and stuff did. I mean, I guess I could reproduce most of the stuff I made whereas it would be more difficult for Dad to replace all the other stuff in his other suitcase.

The parents with their kids are back. Today they were blocking the entrance to the courtyard of the residence hall I walk through. There was a table set up that said something like "Appalachian Historical Museum." Just a table with a plastic container and some papers. It was pretty puzzling. And really, really annoying. I just don't understand people who see someone walking and just stand there staring at them without moving. If I was going to take my kids anywhere on campus it would be the duck pond. It's so pretty and there are benches and a little hut thing to stand under. I just don't get this whole thing. I realize that I'm working with an extra short fuse nowadays and especially so in the morning, but I think if they would just get out of the way I would be fine. It's the parents and the kids. They just stand there like they don't understand why a college student would be walking to class on a college campus. To add to the fun, freshman orientation is going on as well as cheerleading camp.

Here is a list of the Top 10 Most Stolen Cars. I thought the results were quite strange.

I'm a Mythological Genius! Hmmm, wait a minute...

We got our second test back today and I got a 100! I was pretty surprised. We had an essay we had to prepare before class and I didn't do it until about an hour before class. I didn't even do the reading until 2 o'clock in the morning. We have two more tests. Our test averages make up 85% of our final grade. I can't possibly keep this up, but I'm enjoying it for now.
