(no subject)
First of all, make a wish. I know it probably won't be 11:11 when you read this, and I'm not sure if the AM version counts, but since I'm rarely awake in time to see this, I think we can bend the rules a little. Anyway, enough of my absolutely ridiculous habits. Here's a basic rundown of my life since my last update:
- I live about 500 miles away from the academic buildings now, so walking is a big part of my life
- Brownlee Jr (AKA John) stole my friend Greg's frisbee and still hasn't given it back
- Annie has a boyfriend! I know, I know: things in Annie's life are not my life, but at least someone has interesting things going on, right? And let's be honest, I think the facebook news feed told all of you long before I even knew...since apparently that's not something you tell your friends anymore, ANNIE RAE!
- No me gusta la clase de espanol.
- I wonder how to get that n with the squiggly line to appear.
- Finally, I got a column in the school newspaper!
That's right, I will contaminate the minds of students and faculty at uva every two weeks. Woo. Now I know that information brings a few questions to mind, so I'll answer them right now. 1) Yes, academia is totally up in flames 2) That small tremor you felt was Thomas Jefferson rolling over in his grave 3) I *am* looking forward to the hate mail and 4) Yeah, I know I'm not funny but fuck you.
Here's the deal. I'm writing for the Life section, which means the column will closely resemble all of the bullshit I talked about here (minus the unnecessary cursing). It also means that no one will ever see my column since no one reads the Life section, but that's neither here nor there. The problem is that I have no idea what to name the column. I figure that the actual column won't be any good, so I'll need a clever name to keep myself from getting fired. So far my friends have come up with: Ed-ucation, Life Un-Ed-ited, It's Pronounced Chow!, and Chairman Cao. Yeah, we suck pretty hard. All right, maybe Chairman Cao is pretty good, but I'd prefer if my hate mail didn't come directly from the Chinese Government. So I just wanted to see if any of you had ideas since you know what the column might be like better than anyone else. It doesn't have to be a play on my name, and I'd actually prefer if it wasn't since everyone does that. Anything, even if it's completely random, would be an improvement (obviously). Thanks!
ONLY 104 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!
