HEY LOOK
It's the annual last-post-before-school post.
Today is my brother's first day! Of course, it's only the Freshman initiation thing the Link Leaders organize, but it's still a pretty big deal. I'm not sure why I'm so happy for him or so excited that he'll be at Souf, but I am. Perhaps it's because we have a better relationship than most siblings, and I'll enjoy showing him around some. Or perhaps it's because I'm hoping that this will be an emotional turning point for him in the way that it was for me.
I'm also pretty happy about being an upperclassman.
C'mon, break it down now:
P1: Psych (Shannon)
W1: World Lit X (Dawkins)
P2: US History (Gregory)
W2: Newspaper (Glover)
P3: French 3X (Rousselot)
W3: Algebra advanced (Rochford)
P4: Zoology (Vadakel)
W4: PreCalc (Bonansinga)
In other, non-school-related news, Broken Social Scene is godly, but I've known that for a while. I bought a
really good album for two dollars! I'm buying new shoes today, as well as going to
mecca to see if I can find me the 3Oh!3 album. Because I'm Ballerado like that.
I bought
Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid last evening. The cashier told me that it was the only book that "broke him." That should make it fun.
