Pathetic, the path of this day.

A second attempt at xanga... www.xanga.com/jennyjunebug
Yeah, I doubt it'll get much update. I say this with utter confidence since I've never been one to have the keen ability to chronicle my less than average days. By average of course I mean "exciting". I think they key there though is that I can never be that publicly "honest" about my life.


I woke up this morning. It was 9:49 am. Just in time to get ready for my 11:00 am Intro to Asian Art discussion. I got up and went to the bathroom where I spent a good twenty minutes just sitting on the toilet... reflecting. Finally, I washed my face and brushed my teeth. Truly exciting stuff; I did my newfound brushing technique... You know, the circular stroke type. 10:25, left the bathroom. I changed. Not quite the outfit I would really approve of... but it's college and well academia can care less about your fashion sense. I think I've even sort of developed this theory that the crappier you dress, the better you're bound to do in college. Next week, I plan to wear sweats and sweats only. If you see me around campus wearing anything remotely what might be considered an upgrade from such a get-up, please, please, feel free to stop me and point out that I will fail in life... Thanks.
So 12:45, class finally ends. I rush to the shuttle stop seeing that mother nature was about to lash out and pour some rain on my beloved laptop that I was carrying with me. Well, actually luck was on my side though... I got to the shuttle stop and exactly then the shuttle arrives. I get on it. It was nice. As the shuttle made the turn from York Hall to the Muir College area, "Kiss Me" by sixpencenonethericherextremelylongtitle began to play. And right at this exact moment I happened to be staring out the window. It felt like the quintessential scene from a short film IFC would be proud to showcase on one of their festivals. The Toronto one maybe?
So I get off the shuttle and walk back to my little cubicle (dorm). I immediately felt the need to plug in my laptop and open the iTunes... it was on shuffle of course. The first song that played was "No Lies, Just Love" by Bright Eyes. Already, I can tell this was going to be a pathetic day. So here I am, sitting in front of my computer blogging, ditching class, drinking chamomile tea... just as I had predicted.
